Nêhiyawiskwêw (Plains Cree woman), from atakamew-sakihikan (Cold Lake) First Nations located in Alberta, Treaty 6 Territory.
Brooke grew up in Fort McMurray, Alberta, where she competed at a high level in hockey, soccer, basketball and volleyball. Coming from a strong athletic background, she believes that movement is a way to show gratitude to your body, mind and spirit. Brooke developed some of her professional skills in college, allowing her to coach at the North American Indigenous Games (NAIG) and the Western Canada Summer Games. Specializing in long-term athlete development, she currently offers youth golf clinics, which have taken her to many communities across Turtle Island.
Growing up in Fort McMurray, she spent summers on her mooshum’s farm in Cold Lake, where she learned her cultural ways and stayed connected to her roots at a young age. However, moving away from her home community and her late grandfather’s passing made it difficult for her to practice her nêhiyawêwin (Cree language), ask questions about her family ties, and stay connected to her culture as a young adult.
Brooke recently started powwow and competes in dancing the Ladies Jingle category, particularly Old Style Jingle. She is empowered to continue her journey as a dancer and facilitator, as well as her professional work in Indigenous Health Services. Brooke proudly represents her community as she advocates for culture and language revitalization by keeping our families and communities together.

Rebecca dances the Ladies Fancy Shawl and has been dancing for 25+ years. Dancing Fancy is one of her true passions and an integral part of her identity. “Dancing has grounded me and allowed me to stay connected to my roots. I was taught when we dance, we dance for healing and good health, for those that can’t dance and our ancestors that have gone on.”
Rebecca has travelled extensively throughout Canada and the U.S. to many Powwows, and across seas to perform in Italy and Scotland. She has performed alongside A Tribe Called Red, DJ Shub, Cris Derksen, the Indspire Awards and the North American Indigenous Games. “I am very grateful to share my love of culture and continue carrying on traditions.“

Tanisha dances the Women’s Northern Traditional, also known as Northern Buckskin. Dancing has been a part of her life since she was a little girl, and it continues to guide her path today. The teachings that come with this way of life have shaped her into who she is—not only as a dancer, but as a Cree woman.
Through dance, Tanisha has developed skills in beadwork, sewing, and regalia-making, all deeply rooted in culture and storytelling. She was raised in ceremony and continues to learn, grow, and carry the teachings passed down to her from her family, Elders, and community.
The regalia she wears tells the story of her life—reflecting the land, the people, and the experiences that have influenced her journey. For Tanisha, sharing where she comes from and who she is as a Cree woman is deeply passionate. She believes in honouring her ancestors and ensuring that culture continues to live on through future generations.
Tanisha has travelled across Canada and the United States to attend powwows, where she competes and showcases her unique style. She has also travelled internationally, including to Italy and Hawaii, where she has proudly performed and shared her culture with diverse audiences.
Through her dancing, Tanisha hopes to inspire others, uplift her community, and continue walking in a good way.
