Description
Devils Tower Natural History Association and Devils Tower National Monument are proud to welcome World Champion Hoop Dance, Jasmine Pickner Bell to the Tower! Jasmine is a member of the Crow Creek Dakota Sioux Tribe.
As a pioneer in the formerly male dominate tradition of Hoop Dancing, Jasmine conveys a message of unity and healing in her perfomance. Her perfomances include venues at the Kennedy Center, as well as in Austria, Switzerland, and Germany. Jasmin has charmed celebrities and danced with First Ladies.
A favorite memory is of meeting Muhammed Ali, who accepted her traditional gift of healing sweet grass and sage with a akiss on the cheek! He later lead the audienc in a standing ovation at the end of her performance.
