Stomp Dancing Regalia worn during the Stomp Dance also reflects the symbolism of water and the counterclockwise spiral. Men wear ribbons or sashes that hang down from their waists, representing the flowing movement of water. Women wear skirts or dresses with ruffles or pleats that also represent the flowing movement of water. Both women may wear shell shakers on their legs, which produce a sound like rushing water as they dance, keeping the rhythm and coordination. Meanwhile, the men sing in prayer.
