- The Apache Sunrise Dance is an ancient coming of age ceremony for a young woman. Documentary written and produced by (my father) Jay Cravath and Rick Ench. 1996. The filmmakers were invited by the family of the daughter to join and document the ceremony.
I’m half Mescalero my mother was born near the Rio Grande and she is From Mescalero , my Father is Irish I struggled many years off the sacred path and today I cannot count all the tears that have flooded my days of despair asking Yusin our creator for one more day sober and clean , and these songs are very therapeutic for my spirit mind and body
Da'an'zho i'm 100 100% native american mescalero apache of texas and much love
Much love and strength. One day at a time.
I suffer from a lot of ailments and trauma and this way of life, ways of the old. Have been helping me. I respect the apache. Thank you for sharing this as well.
I'm Full Navajo but I've taken in the Zuni Pueblo culture from my step dad, but I also have my Apache and Navajo side from my grandma and my mom, in which I respect and attend the dances and embrace the blessings.
I am Nat'aahendé Band of Mescalero Apache and Avripia Apache, House of Agregaard of Dains, House of Christovic of Croatian, Clan Macpherson, Clan Macleod and, Clan Macleod of Scotish, Marseille Tribe of Gauls.
Many struggles myself. It's 2 days after the final day of the annual Sunrise Ceremony at Mescalero, I pray with our people from Utah, went to Sweat Lodge last night and I am grateful to Ussen and the Gah'é for their guidance and healing. I work to help the Children of Ninaayéñskąn'n remember who they are, I carry the memory of the Old Way of my Mother's People who came from Europe.
Each us has a purpose, one is stronger when one finds that path.

My prayers for you on this beautiful morning as I sing my morning songs.
🙏🏽🪶
I Love Native Americans.with respect from Bangladesh.
I am happy there are still tribes left who have their culture,dances, and language intact.
I am with you on that one
Edgar Perry--you and the singers bringing the beauty into this world so that others can see the Apache people,,,what a great piece of art this video is,,,once the music and language of the Apache is gone,,history will never pass this away again,,that is why its important to preserve these songs through the teachings so the songs will continue forever,,thank you Apaches.
Aho! My Nde! I'm very proud of my Lipan,Mescalero, Apache blood not to mention Zuni! Beautiful film! I can't wait for my daughter to have a Sunrise!
This was good to see and to share too others of what I had experienced "The Sun Rise Dance" back in 2006. I was adopted out when I was a baby by a White family, my adopted mother shared story's about my biological family. So when I grew up, I took my husband with me ( who is white) and helped me find my family in 2004. I have went back to see them every year since then. My biological family lives in Cibecue,Ar. My Sister is Seriah Chissay and my brother is Belfew Chissay, who lives in Whiteriver, Ar.
Cool I sometimes I sing with your brother I am from ft mc dowell az. You'll always be family love and peace from yavapai apache nation.
It was good to read about you reconnecting with your biological family. The Apache culture is amazing .
the father hugging the daughter made me cry too, I miss my dad

GERONIMO WAS VERY MUCH A HERO TO APACHE AND TO ALL NATIVE AMERICANS... MESCALERO APACHE PRIDE.
Norma Corella PRESERVE AND TEACH THE APACHE SONG, DANCE, PRAYER AND TRIBAL VALUE'S IS THE KEY TO OUR CONTINUANCE AND SURVIVAL.. WISH I COULD LEARN ALL THESE SONGS. LIVING IN CALIFORNIA DON'T RUN INTO MUCH APACHE THAT KNOW OUR SONGS & WAY...
He's one of the greatest freedom fighters ever. Right up there with Sitting Bull, Crazy Horse, Little Crow, Tecumseh, Pontiac and Joseph.
Norma Corella yes he was

Awesome to show what was done before the bibles came to this land. Awesome presentation done!apaches are survivors with strong medicine. Feel lucky when your in their presence, you just might learn something!
This is me and I am proud to be a Native American This really speaks out to me LOVE THE VIDEO !!!!!!!!!!!
Greetings from Bulgaria!!! Wonderful Apache culture!!! Respect!!!
All these dances have come to life, happening now! I thank you for this very much appreciated.
My respect for these Native Americans !!!
They're called Apaches.
Apache not only were very spiritual like other tribes but they had a warrior spirit about them, there were the special forces of old times and knew the land and could ambush their enemies swiftly and quietly.
Very interesting video, and may they be blessed and share their wisdom with all humans.
Lakota hoop dance
im mescalero thru my mom aztec thru my dad i identify more with my apaches roots because my grandpa who is apache me and him look similiar i have strong apache roots
Long live the apache people and their music....the people of Cochise and Geronimo!!!
This is so emotional I almost cried for that girl . congratulation
Most beautiful thing I've seen in a long time, this is. Our human family is so bright and colorful and full of Light and Joy and Wisdom. We are all one under the Rainbow Sky.
Grandpa Paul singing horse & war song. Reminds me of early morning at the barn listening to Grandpa sing to the horses. I miss you Grandpa. 😔♥️
I'd like to first say God Bless You ALL!
The Indians and Their Culture and this amazing video should be shared and saved for All Our Future History! Never to be forgotten!
Thanks for sharing your video with us and Ty to David Bowers of @TheDavidBowers for consistently sharing your wonderful Heritage with us!! ~ Cathy ✌❤ :)
Cathy Fisher it’s native American
@@kaleighbetom4810 yessir
eh I mean they're not American, considering that's a colonial term. I think it's more important to learn their history than squabble about names. You'll understand more about names when you understand the history more :)
My utmost respect to my biggest hero Geronimo. He was the bravest Warrior in History. All the native traditions are unique and amazing to me. The rest of the world could learn so much from them. I have had a lifelong dream to go to Pow Wow and have the honour of dancing with our Brothers and Sisters. Finally, after many years of saving I will be able to fulfill my dream as soon as Covid has passed. Love, Peace and Respect Always. 🤝🤝❤️❤️Cymru ( Wales) UK
moved from wales to arizona in 1980, pops got a job teaching on WMAT res, went to a lot of sunrises since he photo'ed.
both apache and wales are words from other cultures that mean enemy :)

Muchas gracias por compartir tan hermosa cultura, sus cantos, bailes, y enseñanzas ancestrales...He llorado cuando el padre abrazaba a su hija convertida en una nueva mujer después de la ceremonia. Gracias, Gracias, Gracias y que el Gran Espíritu bendiga al pueblo Apache por siempre.
Thank you for a great lesson, God bless you and your families, and the clans and the tribe.... thank you again..... Tony Parrish...

This was so beautiful and educational, thank you! I admit to tearing up when the father hugged his daughter as well.
We all have a story. Thank you for sharing the story of the Apache Sunrise Dance.
I love the song Geronimo sang , So where is everybody ? He did what he had to do , no bullets could kill him because he had the power.

Just beautiful and inspiring. Prayers up...tobacc down. ☆♡☆
Thankyou from Hungary!Feri.
without your teachings, my life would not be. thank you!!!
Beautiful ceremony!!! Thank you for sharing. I am part Apache, and only one of my Aunts taught me about my heritage. I thirst for more, and I'm always searching.
I'm 💯% apache full blood never stop searching Ixehe thank you
It's good you have a hunger for learning more about our culture it's all we have left but it's all we need love and peace from yavapai apache nation....
Once you film a ceremony you take the spirit out of it. That's what I've been taught. Once that happens it becomes and show and not a prayer. Too many people now a days need many many people to witness them say prayers or do ceremonies but in reality your prayer and ceremony is only between you and Creator. The old way of teachings is disappearing but there still is people out there who practise those old teachings.
I found myself crying..mostly of how proud you must be ..your believes are so powerful and full with honesty and love of family , tribe , and creation itself. With all my heart to you and yours ..
I am white. I was born in Nogales Az. I did read about the Apache and their territory. They definitely had either lived in or had camp in the surrounding mountains near my hometown. The Apache culture is amazing . Very resourceful and determined people.
BEATIFULL VIDEO,GERONIMO HISTORI IS IN CHIHUAHUA MEXICO TOO. LOVE APACHE NATION, LOVE THIS PRETI CULTURE.
Thanks for your support love and peace from the yavapai apache nation....
What a beautiful culture !!!
so moving,,,many thanks,,,miigwetch,,,
I am Honored to have met with and learned from the Wise Apache Elder Edgar Perry in my lifetime.
They lied to us all our lives shame on them! I am 63 and grew up in NYC the school's there lied to us . Thank you for this made me cry. So beautiful and spiritual. They tried to rob you again . So I am great full they can never do it again.
Beautiful :)
Love to you Apache Nation from The Navajo Nation 🕊️
Good health to your family. Enjoy peace while you can
Beautifull songs, an immense inheritance that should be taught in scoles. The wisdom lies in the songs of the past.
I love this presentation ❤❤❤
What wonderful people they are.
Beautiful! Loved this film - thanks so much for sharing your culture and knowledge and the story of Apache song and traditions. (Georgian Bay, Ontario, Canada) :-) Miigwetch!
I hope that the apaches and all the other tribes across America, will one day be the majority of the country.
No one wants to keep these alive but I don’t understand why? It is the truest of ways we have left. I am
Hopeful for Apache ❤️ I am from both sides of my family, my mother and father Apache.
Not true we have many thousands now continuing our culture and one day millions very soon we are growing yearly now we here to stay until all life is gone on earth da'ba'z'ha ni'shin'ee NA'ZA'HE do you

So beautiful and educational! Love learning about the cultures of the indigenous people of our land whether they are my ancestors or not (there is familial ambiguity of what tribe for sure we come from though the general consensus is apache)
Здравствуйте, спасибо. Замечательно, есть ещё люди, отдают честь душе своих прародителей сохраняя песни и танцы ушедших 1000 лет назад. Привет из середины степей и болот России

I love to fish in the White mountains especially Holly lake and reservation lake and the drive from White River y55 is absolutely beautiful. I cherish this land and we'll always love and respect it until I am no longer. I wish I could say the same for other people that go there and trash it makes me furious.
