ABOUT US

Dancing Bear Indian Trader consists of the husband and wife team Don & Chris Tracy. Both are well-known powwow dancers in Southern California and are expert crafters. They both love tipi camping, which is actually how they met.

Dancing Bear Indian Trader was founded in 1990 in Southern California by its namesake, “Dancing Bear”, Don Tracy. Don’s first sale was at the Sycuan annual powwow in the mountains east of San Diego. He set up a single table and offered a selection of Indian craft supplies. Ever since then Dancing Bear Indian Trader has been setting up their booth at powwows all throughout Southern California, serving the craft and regalia supply needs of the Indian community as well as the general public.

At any given powwow, dancers know that if they need an emergency regalia repair, they can always come to Dancing Bear for a needle and a length of sinew to save the day.
