Their women are ferocious yet stunning... the lady's voice is haunting. The whole group is terrifyingly beautiful... such a fierce, highly sophisticated, complex culture and the world 🌎 is a much richer place because of it.
As a Pakeha (non-Maori, white) Kiwi, the magic of Maori Haka, poi, dance, song, is that it touches the spirit without needing to understand the language. Thank you for your uploads of this beautiful culture.
I can tell you this my bro, even though I'm a Maori every time I see my culture on youtube or even just on the net, I'm so proud that my culture is known. It great to see ppl like you get interested in my culture. The ancestors will be happy to know that their souls that live in us are living in you and the thousands of ppl that watch your videos. May there souls never fade. I really want to say bro is thank you.
The language is not merely words and terms. These are a consequence. They come from a reasoning process that thinks in absolute terms when it comes to meaning and value. It will appeal to other cultures, because this language is universal. "Mauriora!"
@@tamathemaoriengine3203 that depends on the individual wether they feel ihi or wehi. For me reflecting off this reaction I feel ihi. What do you feel?
@@alphatango9480 no we aren't 😂 Te Arawa is actually the smallest iwi. Engari, these days our egos are way bigger than any other iwi, which is probably why we all think we're the best... (Tuhoe and Te Arawa) In terms of best iwi haka/pohiri/manawawera etc... Nobody can top the bull done by angry Tuhoe people and you can't change my mind 😅😅
The haka is a challenge, Tuhoe the Iwi or tribe if u will are staunch in there beliefs, the crown being the government were there for a settlement with Maori lands etc when the European’s landed in New Zealand lands were stolen my ancestors were made to learn to speak English and not our native language
the Tuhoe nation was welcoming the government officials. there would have been a lot of emotion as it was crown settlement day. pretty much the crown or government would have been there to apologise for the wrongs inflicted on the Tuhoe nation by the colonial and subsequent governments.
This is the culmination of the wrongs made by the government over the last century to this day. Every treaty they made with my ancestors, THEY broke, evry one of them. The Haka that they all perform is called a Peruperu, this is instilled into us as little children. The men in the front exerts their emotion, hurt, and anger, although the women come forward they too are able to let out their emotion and everything, but they are the ones to invite the visitors.The eader of the group is just that, te leader of the group. The Chiefs sit on the PAE to take part in the speeches.
Kia Ora (Hello) Robert Smalls, Firstly thank you for reacting to videos about our culture. Not many people react to our videos. This video was of a pōhiri (traditional welcome ceremony) done by the Tūhoe Nation, the iwi (tribe) Ngāi Tūhoe. This was their pōhiri (traditional ceremonial welcome) to the Crown (Government Entity). To learn more about pōhiri follow the link - teara.govt.nz/en/marae-protocol-te-kawa-o-te-marae/page-2 Note: Clapping is not appropriate at a pōhiri (traditional welcome ceremony), at all. Just a bit of history. The crown, the government were welcomed onto the land of the Tūhoe to give back that which was illegally taken from them as well as putting things right, all the past wrong doings of the crown, the government. The "presence" you feel is all the negative emotions that the people of Tūhoe have had to endure since the beginning of colonisation. To learn more about Ngāi Tūhoe follow the link - teara.govt.nz/en/ngai-tuhoe The leaders of the haka are not necessarily the leaders of the tribe. It is good if they are both, however the chosen leaders are just some of the best at that particular role. Haka can be about anything and everything. "Haka - Sometimes termed a posture dance could also be described as a chant with actions. There are various forms of haka; some with weapons some without, some have set actions others may be 'free style.' Haka is used by Māori (indigenous people of New Zealand) for a myriad of reasons; to challenge or express defiance or contempt, to demonstrate approval or appreciation, to encourage or to discourage, to acknowledge feats and achievements, to welcome, to farewell, as an expression of pride, happiness or sorrow. [they can also tell stories, be political, be about current events ie. suicide]. There is almost no inappropriate occasion for haka; it is an outward display of inner thoughts and emotions. Within the context of an occasion it is abundantly clear which emotion is being expressed." To learn more about kapa haka please follow the link - teara.govt.nz/en/kapa-haka-maori-performing-arts Hope this helps! You actually need to come to Aotearoa (New Zealand) and come to learn a lot more. You'll have no regrets because to get all of this haka and our culture, you need to be here.
The man at the begining is doing what we call a wero (challege) he is typically the warrior who is the best at weapons and challenges the visitors to see if the come in peace or in war. He lays down a small branch and waits in defence to see if the visitors pick up the peace offering. If they do, thw warrior will make his way back to the ropu (group) which is what has happened in this video. The man in the front of the group leading the haka is the Kaitataki tane (leader of the men) and the older woman out the front leading the women is the Kaitataki wahine (leader of the women). Hope this helps :)

That the flag of the lost Maori tribe. The Werawhakawi Tribe.
That feeling and presence you feel is what we call 'wairua' (why roo ah). It means 'spirit'. Thank you for your reaction and respect :)
