Be There or Be Square!

Be in Class this Weekend!
Jolyana has some really exciting news to share with you and she is urging you to make it to this week's class on Saturday! We hope you can make it!

We are also working on our new song called The First Song by Jay Begaye. We are trying to work out some of the melodies in time for our upcoming engagements. Some of the notes are low but we are trying to modify them to make it easier for the children to sing.

Navajo Song Playlist
I am also working on preparing the playlist for you to access. I upload all the music files to Imeem and so in my next blog, I will share that with you so you can access the songs all in one place.

Take care everyone and will see you in class!

New Songs!

We learned some new songs and are gearing up for some new singing engagements. We will announce the events as we get closer to the dates. We hope you have a great time sharing and practicing these songs. I'm sorry this blog posting is a little late but I had computer trouble and couldn't download the songs until today.

Dahdiniilghaazh (Fry Bread Song)
This is a cute song regarding one of our favorite eats! Frybread. This is a good song to teach children.

Phoenix Indian Center Gala

The students and parents did a wonderful job at the annual PIC Gala on Saturday. The students shared what they learned throughout the evening. The group sang during the Silent Auction and opened the festivities with the Blessing Song. We want to thank the PIC for hosting us and making us part of the event!

Thanks everyone for making this a success!






No Class this Weekend
Classes will be cancelled this Saturday due to the Easter holiday. We will resume next week. Any questions, feel free to contact Jolyana. Have a great weekend and see you next week.
