Wild Horse Singers and Dancers are first and foremost a intertribal pow wow drum group. We participate in community events. We teach youth culturally appropriate behavior surrounding the drum, pow wows, and traditional Native American activities.

 

We support Native American inmates in the California Department of corrections facilities throughout the State. We do this by visiting with the inmates, bringing them various aspects of our culture, and by performing for them. This program contributes to the reduction of recidivism by creating a connection for the inmates to their traditional community and values. It also serves as a deterrent to inappropriate and illegal behaviors for our older youth who in visiting the prisoners can clearly see the consequences of illegal and inappropriate behaviors.

We conduct cultural exchange programs by traveling nationally and internationally and performing our songs and dances for other groups. In recent years Wild Horse Singers and Dancers have participated in cultural exchange programs in Hawaii and Greece. We have performed at elementary schools, high schools, colleges, universities, and corporations. We have marched in parades and participated in community events locally and across the United States.
