Brent Darden ended his speech by quoting John Wayne "The fearful or skeptic does not step into their personal Journey... Only the fragile & weak does not last long in their walk and only the very few that are strong will end their Journey in completion in knowing of what is".

Farewell to Fairbanks, AK. (Eielson- AFB)

Orizon would like to personally say... "Thank You, Gracias, Merci" for your Warmth & Hospitality dedicated to the Children, Parents, Staff & Director's during our stay at Eielson-AFB (all the picking-up, dropping off & laughs were wonderful). We are grateful for the opportunity to have instructed an effective program designed/created for your students. It was filled with excitement "Energy", at a Performance level of Dance, which is the Universal Love for the arts & Human Kind around the world. The Eielson-AFB Youth Program Directors, Staff & Parents are an amazing group to work with! Due to the wonderful experience that Destani & I have had during this past week, it is definitely going to be extremely difficult to meet the quality of Individuals that exude the Professionalism & Enthusiasm that you have given to Destani & I through out our stay in Fairbanks, Alaska!

Fairbanks, Alaska day 3

Destani Rosales enjoying the life at "the" North Pole (actual name of the nearest town) and Yes... Yes... there is a candy cane on every corner! You better believe Santa is larger than life in this town! He's standing roadside eager to be seen by both locals and visitor's, arm outreached and sending a grand "Hello"! Believe it or not, you better make sure you welcome Santa with open arms, if not, Santa WILL leave coal in your stocking this year! As you see, Destani truly believes in Santa Clause without any doubt at all.

Come check-out Ms. Destani's (pictures) doing what she does best "Fit Destiny"!

Ms. Micaela breaking it down... B-Girl style and sharing her skills with the Youth in Alaska.

History of Alaska

How many of you remember the Walt Disney Movie "Brother Bear" (click onto the link to view Brother Bear video clip) ? If not, I highly recommened for you to pick it up this weekend and watch it with someone you love! This movie has the authentic reasoning why Alaska's History is so Valuable as well as Priceless to its people.

Alaska people are so extremely warming and have such an open Heart to it's land, Cultural Belief's & Traditional ways. Alaska's indigenous people, who are jointly called Alaska Natives, can be divided into five major groupings: Aleuts, Northern Eskimos (Inupiat), Southern Eskimos (Yuit), Interior Indians (Athabascans) and Southeast Coastal Indians (Tlingit and Haida). Visit Alaska's History and learn about their proud people: History of Alaska.

Dinosaurs once roamed the Great Land, followed by bison and woolly mammoths. The first people moved across the Bering Land Bridge into northwestern Alaska more than 20,000 years ago (and moved southward), archaeologists. Their Northern Lights are an amazing sight to see which can be best viewed in the dark months of the season. The northern lights are just about the only thing that could get Alaskans to stand outside without a coat in January.

Overseas Summer Dance Camp learns Latino & Bellydancing

Today was the 1st day for many Youths in Fairbanks, Alaska to learn and even be introduced to Latin & Arabic Music with movement through the non-verbal communication as the body being a vessel for celebration of Life. For further pictures please view: Orizon in Fairbanks, Alaska.
