WE ARE HERE
Ngalak Nidja is a small Aboriginal business owned and operated by proud Wadjak Ballardong Noongar and Badimaya Yamatji man, Jayden Boundry along with the support of his family. Translating to 'we are here', the name Ngalak Nidja pays tribute to the oldest living culture in the world that is still present and thriving here on Noongar boodja in the Southwest of Western Australia.
We are passionate about celebrating Noongar culture and creating opportunities to share this rich and beautiful culture with the wider community.
We look forward to creating an opportunity for you to celebrate Noongar culture with us soon. Boordawan!
Our cultural facilitators have the cultural permissions, knowledge and experience to conduct a Welcome to Country ceremony for you here in Noongar Country in Perth, WA.
Our cultural dancers perform traditional ceremony dances from the Noongar people that have been passed down from generation to generation. Our dancers also enjoy interactive dance performances and celebrating culture with the wider community.
A smoking ceremony is a cleansing ceremony that is often used alongside a Welcome to Country or to bring good spirits and energy to a place or people.
Our cultural facilitators are amazing digeridoo players! Whether you are looking for a performance or for lessons, we are always happy to share the healing sounds and vibrations of the didgeridoo.
We can attend your workplace or community organisation and deliver a number of different interactive cultural workshops.
We offer six cultural programs for schools that are aligned with the six Noongar seasons. Sessions are interactive and specialised for Aboriginal students.
Ngalak Nidja acknowledges and pays respect to the Wadjak people of the Noongar nation and to their Elders of the past and present as the Traditional Custodians of the Country on which we live and work.
We also acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of Country throughout Australia and recognise their continuing connection to their lands, waters and communities. We pay our respects to them, their cultures and to their Elders both past and present.
