New Songs!

Today we had another Navajo Singing class. We went over previous songs we learned including Shi Naasha and Ne'ashjaa' (Owl) Shoe Game Song. We also learned a new one, Iina Baa Hozho. Everyone was enthusiastic to be part of the new recordings. We hope that those who were not able to make it, that you are able to listen to the songs. If you need a copy of the songs, please email shtom@cox.net for a pdf copy of the songs we learned and went over. Iina Baa Hozho is the new song we learned.

Shi Naasha:

Ne'ashjaa' (Navajo Shoe Game Song)
Note: Due to the change in the season, we are no longer able to provide this Shoe Game Song. We are sorry but we must follow our traditions and adhere to our beliefs that when the Spring season arrives, we no longer should sing Winter songs and or play Winter games (Shoe game and string games).

We hope you have a great time learning these songs and please feel free to contact Jolyana if you have any questions or leave a comment in the Comments section. Thanks!

Greetings from Indiana!
Thank you for this wonderful blog! My friend Leontine is in the singing class, and this is a great way to keep up with her. Thank you too for the sound files and esp. the basketball updates.
