Possesom Paul

Dancer / Youth Dancers from Oromocto First Nation
Possesom is a Wolastoq artist and cultural educator. He is a major contributor and resource to the world indigenous artist community, a chief advisor in developing and improving the Atlantic pow-wow scene, to running and managing many events as staff, head dancer, and master of ceremonies.

Traveling all throughout the Atlantic Provinces, he teaches dance to a whole generation of performers, creating a huge wave of new dancers in the hundreds, and developing pathways for those indigenous students to perform and develop.

He is a member of the Wabanaki Grass Dance Society, and a keeper of traditional knowledge. He is a champion dancer, accomplished actor, traveled teacher & emerging choreographer — who has toured all through North America, sharing knowledge and engaging in audiences in critical thought towards their understanding of their own origins, and that of first peoples of the world.

Currently, Possesom is collaborating with Jeremy Dutcher and the Atlantic Ballet on a major Canadian production called "Pisuwyn" which will premier in 2023.

At the APC Fisheries Conference Cultural Showcase, you will get to enjoy the dancing of youth dancers from Oromocto First Nation that have trained with Possesom Paul.
