My current desire on this journey is to travel the earth teaching my craft.  Through trial and error, help from a few how-to videos, and leather and bead suppliers, I've come a long way since my very first moccasin class in 2008.  Through technology, I'm available to teach you through NON-CONTACT CLASSES.  These classes are for individuals and groups interested in the long hours of making moccasins.  If you are interested - don't delay - contact me today: [email protected], or leave a brief message, or text: 405.432.8777.

2008, 2013, 2013  Two Rivers Native American Training Center

In the summer of 2008 I taught my first moccasin class. I didn't know I had it in me. I'd only made two pairs of infant moccasins at that time and was asked by the facility if I could teach an adult moccasin class prior to our week long training.  The research on how to make adult moccasins began. Now I've been teaching what I know here and there ever since.  

The second and third classes I taught was an infant moccasin class.  It was a great turn out of 8 students.  Everyone finished ONE SIDE of the pair.  The facility and I found that one day is not enough with that large of a class with only one instructor.  The following Saturday we had an adult moccasin class, again, eight hours of instruction is not enough time.  June 2013.

2015, 2020  Four Winds Healing Center, Wichitaw, Kansas

The furthest I've traveled from home to teach was three hours to Wichita, Kansas.  I taught a small group of ladies how to make adult-hard-sole, Plains style leather moccasins.  The classes were held in conjunction with the South Eastern Aglow Chapter, we made some lasting friendships that lead to another adult moccasin class in 2020!  Check out my friend, Tenna Salas's website: www.4windshealingcenter.com

In the summer of 2018, I taught infant moccasins and jewelry stringing at a friend's store in Moore, the Herb Shop.  That gig led me to INSTRUCT the Indian Education tutors and staff at the Moore Indian Education department.  I taught them how to make Native American single-needle applique beaded post-earrings.  That's a mouthful.
