TDG would like to acknowledge the sovereign land on which we now live and dance together. We acknowledge that this land has been the site of human activity for thousands of years, and is still home to many Indigenous peoples from across Turtle Island.​Our operating base, currently located in T'karonto, is on the unceded, unsurrendered territory of the Wendat, the Anishinabek Nation, the Haudenosaunee Confederacy, and the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation. This land is the subject of the Dish With One Spoon Wampum Belt Covenant, which is an agreement between these Nations to peaceably share and care for the vital land and life around the Great Lakes. As uninvited guests, we seek to honour these obligations of mutual care, not just here in Ontario, but across this vast land. The name 'Canada' likely evolved from the Huron-Iroquois word Kanata meaning 'village' or 'settlement' and as a collective largely made up of children to settler parents or practitioners who have journeyed here in our own lifetimes, we are grateful to have the opportunity to live and share our work here.
