Kids tune into their culture

Dennis Whitford is hoping to provide both a "spiritual (and) physical type of growth" to the 20 or so youngsters who take traditional dance instruction from him.
The boys and girls in his class range in age from five to 15 years old and meet once a week in McLennan, located about 30 km northwest of High Prairie.
Said Whitford, who learned the moves from Treaty 7 people around Calgary, "Dancing is a very rewarding, enriching experience for myself and I'd like to have the children have the opportunity to have that experience."
