A young Anishinaabe hoop dancer, Makhena will come to give a demonstration of this important dance in her community. She will also explain the origin of this dance and its uses in Indigenous medicine.<\/p>\n<p>Makhena Rankin Gu\u00e9rin is an Anishinaabe and Franco-Ontarian two-spirit hoop dancer and nursing student. She was born and raised in Ottawa and her family is from the Abbitibiwinni First Nation. The hoop dance is created around a choreography performed in the cadence of traditional percussion which is intended as a medicinal art.<\/p>\n<p>Makhena attributes her passion for medicine to her two-spirit identity. \u201cIn First Nations communities, the two-spirit, who has a female side and a male side, are people with mediating roles. I use the hoop dance to bring an emotion to the spectators which will act as a medicine for the head, the body, and the spirit. \u00bb<\/p>\n<p>Through this ancestral art which almost disappeared in the 1950s, Makhena Rankin Guerin feels like she is reconnecting with her indigenous roots. Today, she passes on her art to her brother and awakens non-indigenous to her culture by sparking curiosity and breaking down barriers in those who have a &#8220;negative understanding&#8221; of it.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/af.ca\/ottawa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Dates-Heure-Spectacle-de-danse-EN.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-20909\" src=\"https:\/\/af.ca\/ottawa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Dates-Heure-Spectacle-de-danse-EN-300x150.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"588\" height=\"294\" srcset=\"https:\/\/af.ca\/ottawa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Dates-Heure-Spectacle-de-danse-EN-300x150.png 300w, https:\/\/af.ca\/ottawa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Dates-Heure-Spectacle-de-danse-EN-1024x512.png 1024w, https:\/\/af.ca\/ottawa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Dates-Heure-Spectacle-de-danse-EN-768x384.png 768w, https:\/\/af.ca\/ottawa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Dates-Heure-Spectacle-de-danse-EN-1536x768.png 1536w, https:\/\/af.ca\/ottawa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Dates-Heure-Spectacle-de-danse-EN-2048x1024.png 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 588px) 100vw, 588px\" \/><\/a>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/af.ca\/ottawa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/received_1184183259023743.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-20904\" src=\"https:\/\/af.ca\/ottawa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/received_1184183259023743-225x300.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"452\" height=\"602\" srcset=\"https:\/\/af.ca\/ottawa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/received_1184183259023743-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/af.ca\/ottawa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/received_1184183259023743-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/af.ca\/ottawa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/received_1184183259023743-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/af.ca\/ottawa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/received_1184183259023743.jpeg 1170w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 452px) 100vw, 452px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/af.ca\/ottawa\/details-de-levenement\/?eventId=764#\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-18677\" src=\"https:\/\/af.ca\/ottawa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Bouton-site-internet-300x56.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"413\" height=\"77\" srcset=\"https:\/\/af.ca\/ottawa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Bouton-site-internet-300x56.png 300w, https:\/\/af.ca\/ottawa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Bouton-site-internet.png 762w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 413px) 100vw, 413px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=E6T1fDFvqzg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-20906\" src=\"https:\/\/af.ca\/ottawa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Screenshot-Makhena-Youtube-300x150.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"720\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/af.ca\/ottawa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Screenshot-Makhena-Youtube-300x150.png 300w, https:\/\/af.ca\/ottawa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Screenshot-Makhena-Youtube-1024x512.png 1024w, https:\/\/af.ca\/ottawa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Screenshot-Makhena-Youtube-768x384.png 768w, https:\/\/af.ca\/ottawa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Screenshot-Makhena-Youtube-1536x768.png 1536w, https:\/\/af.ca\/ottawa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Screenshot-Makhena-Youtube-2048x1024.png 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Thanks to our Sponsor :<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/af.ca\/ottawa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Logo-Ottawa-Bilingue-RCB@4x.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-20951\" src=\"https:\/\/af.ca\/ottawa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Logo-Ottawa-Bilingue-RCB@4x-300x102.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"359\" height=\"122\" srcset=\"https:\/\/af.ca\/ottawa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Logo-Ottawa-Bilingue-RCB@4x-300x102.png 300w, https:\/\/af.ca\/ottawa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Logo-Ottawa-Bilingue-RCB@4x-1024x349.png 1024w, https:\/\/af.ca\/ottawa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Logo-Ottawa-Bilingue-RCB@4x-768x262.png 768w, https:\/\/af.ca\/ottawa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Logo-Ottawa-Bilingue-RCB@4x.png 1057w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 359px) 100vw, 359px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; To celebrate the indigenous cultures of Canada, the Alliance Fran\u00e7aise Ottawa offers you a hoop dance performance by the artist Makhena Rankin Gu\u00e9rin.
