Pow Wow

I went to watch the Pow Wow.  I have heard it is famous dance. At first, I’m not interested in this dance at all and I have never seen this kind of dance. When I entered the hall, I felt special atmosphere. There were many people of different age from younger to older. Many people wore colorful and cultural costume with wings and bells. A few people painted their face. Soon after I got in the hall, opening ceremony started. A man offered like stick of incense. It smelled unique. I didn’t like this smell. People made an oval circle. Many people in the circle smelled this stick of incense as if it is good for their body. Dancing started. They stepped twice on one leg. They were moving without limit. A group of men sang with high-pitched tone and beat a drum. It got violent more and more. At first, I think it is strange but it looks getting cooler little by little. Their dance was very attractive. Their high pitch voice matched their dance. During their dance, I went to see the stores which sell decorations of Pow Wow. There were bracelets, earrings, and strange things that I can’t explain. I touched fur of rabbit. It was very soft. A few minutes later, the dancing contest started. There were maybe some groups. Each group has three representations who are good at dancing. They danced very powerful and attractive. I was inspired by them. I was very excited. During the dance contest, I left the hall. I felt they are proud of their dance. It was my pleasure to feel their spirit.
