I highly recommend Muckpaloo if you have a chance to attend any of her informative sessions or workshops. She is passionate, knowledgeable and balances learning with unique, interactive activities. Very fortunate for every interaction I’ve had with her.

Muckpaloo guided our staff meeting in an informative, low-stress and fun workshop about Inuit throat singing, the jaw harp and drumming. As a group, we were a little hesitant to be put on the spot and Muckpaloo was great about not forcing anyone to perform in front of the group but instead gently encouraging us to give things a try. It was a great start to our work day and I would recommend it to any organization!

Muckpaloo organized the most lovely evening that included traditional foods, games and throat singing. I learned a lot, met some amazing people and had a wonderful time. Thank you for sharing your culture with us.

Need more presentation as we all very interesting learning about their life and cultures

I thoroughly enjoyed Muckpaloo’s presentation. She shared very interesting information about the Inuit people and before this I had not realized how different Inuit culture was from other Indigenous groups in Canada. I particularly enjoyed the information about Shamanism. I hope that Muckpaloo produces a follow-up presentation to build on what I’ve learned so far.

The blend of culture and religion as well as the significance of the objects and person’s action serves as a platforms for knowing more about the Inuit people.

Great presentation with simple explanations and communication. Her passion for inuit culture and sharing her deep truths was awesome and so appreciated.

Thanks so much.

Muckpaloo provided United Way Simcoe Muskoka staff with insightful, practical cultural training to strengthen the inclusivity of our work in the community. She is a bright, engaging leader who understood our goals and tailored this training to ensure we gained an understanding of Inuit culture and were confident in relationship building to meet social needs of Inuit in our region. I would highly recommend Muckpaloo and look forward to working together with her again.

Well thought out, personal presentation that will seriously impact the way I deal with Inuit guests. Muckpaloo did a fantastic job, Thank you

Muckpaloo is extremely knowledgeable, and her presentation provided her audience with invaluable insight into Inuit culture. The pearls that she shared will help our clinicians to provide care that is more culturally sensitive and informed in its approach. Throughout her presentation, Muckpaloo was candid and open with her answers but always gracious when sharing her perspectives. We are grateful that she came to speak to our group.

Muckpaloo came to my school to talk to the students who are in my Gender and Equity Studies classes. She tailored the presentations to the classes directly and taught about Inuit culture, and then how to be inclusive from the standpoint of an Inuk. The students learned an immense amount and had beautiful questions and Muckpaloo answered all with wisdom and grace. This knowledge is vital to students who are Inuit and non-Inuit. Representation matters, and Muckpaloo and the Urban Inuit Identity Project are beautiful representation, leading the way in making space for Inuit students in our area.

I cannot say enough positive words, and there wouldn’t be space here anyway! Beautiful presentation, excellent excellent excellent!!

Thank you UIIP and Muckpaloo!

This training open my eyes and mind to the beautiful culture of the Inuit people. As well as their history and thier uniqueness. Please we need more of these training. Progressive Vine Abilities is certainly better because of this training

Muckpaloo Ipeelie presented an exceptional Inuit cultural appreciation workshop at my work, Independent Counselling Enterprises (ICE) in Edmonton on Friday January 27, 2023. She demonstrated body language, eye contact, and verbal skills to help us connect with our Inuit clients. She included mythical stories, art, and personal anecdotes to help bring her points to life. Muckpaloo has extensive knowledge but as importantly has a multifaceted way of sharing and communicating that knowledge. I also appreciated her explanation of some of the differences between Inuit, First Nations, and Metis cultures to help us provide individualized, personal supports to our unique variety of clients. I would highly recommend this training and I hope our workplace offers it on a regular basis so I can take it again. -Anita Bahry, Team Coordinator, ICE.

This training has enabled me the ability to differentiate between the Inuit, and the Metis/First Nations communities who I encounter more readily. The training has also placed me in a better position to understand and respect the Inuit culture with those I work with and those I support in my role as a Community Rehabilitation Manager.

Muckpaloo reached out to our organization, offering to provide us with the wonderful opportunity to learn about the Inuit Culture. Muckpaloo was a great presenter and a wonderful woman who shared her own personal stories and insights throughout the session. If you want to learn more about the Inuit Culture or Beliefs, this training will not disappoint.
