Each season features gatherings with activities like canoeing, hiking, and movement games alongside teachings about language, medicines, and stories. These experiences are led by community members, not just researchers, making this work truly by and for Indigenous Peoples.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-large-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Why is it important?<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This program reclaims Indigenous physical activity traditions as tools for joy, healing, resilience, and sharing of knowledge and centres the voices of communities and youth for life long wholistic health and wellness (Miles et al, 2023).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <em>ShQUooz Circle<\/em> exemplifies what can happen when research and practice are led by Indigenous Peoples with emphasis on belonging, ceremony, and self-determination. The community based is about being active and reconnecting with spiritual, emotional, mental and physical health and well-being,&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On World Indigenous Peoples Day, we highlight this as a model for Two-Eyed Seeing (Martin, 2012) approach that integrates Indigenous and Western ways of knowing to create pathways to wellness for future generations together.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-large-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Take home messages<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Indigenous-led movement programs rooted in culture and traditions build relationships within community with ties to ancestral lands and water ways.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Honouring traditional knowledge in physical activity strengthens intergenerational ties and well-being within communities.\u00a0\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>World Indigenous Peoples Day is a time to celebrate Indigenous ways to be physically active on the land and water.\u00a0\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Authored by:<\/strong> Dr Rosalin Miles | Nlaka\u2019pamux woman and member of Lytton First Nation; University of British Columbia, Indigenous Health and Physical Activity Program, CIHR Implementation Science Chair in Human Development, Child and Youth Health; Indigenous Physical Activity and Cultural Circle, Executive Director\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>References<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-x-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Canadian Institutes of Health Research.
