Welcome to Deer Dance.
This web site holds the passions of Terry Kem, Founder of Deer Dance Outdoors. Deer Dance was founded in 1995 and is an expression of Terry’s exploration and excellence in the arts of animal tracking and the practice of developing awareness skills through Nature.
Animal Tracking encompasses an ancient science that was passed down from generation to generation. It is arguably the first science and is a skill that was used for survival in older times. Today, animal tracking is being rediscovered as a means to learn about animals, their habitats and their relationships with their environment. By learning animal tracking, we gain a set of skills that provides us a myriad of tools to play with as we explore nature. Tracking has been the doorway through which Terry has rediscovered the natural world and all her wonders. Animal Tracking is also one of many tools through which we can rediscover our connection with all that live upon this earth.
Awareness skills are a heightened way of experiencing our true selves and our surroundings. Developing and practicing these skills can be a conscious way of becoming a participant in your life's journey. Terry shares these skills and helps us to remember, with nature as the mentor.
This web site provides an invitation to participate and engage in the natural world in a way you may not have ever considered, expected, or explored.
