Tena koe. I made my kotiro a taiaha and she's been praciticing each morning. Choice to see wahine in your video. I'm going to use this video for our tama programme - they are keen for mau rakau. Ko Hauraki te whenua.
Kia ora e hoa, ngā mihi for your comment and wicked you made a taiaha for your kotiro!! That's awesome! Yes absolutely! We have lots more content to come and will be creating a special members-only series specifically for kura and those who run programmes around the motu. This will be a bit more in-depth and hopefully add more value! If there's anything further you would like to see from us, please let us know. Ngā mihi!
Just got given a Taiaha, and this video is great for me to learn the stances, before I go to learn in depth at Te Wānanga. Ngā Mihi Kōrua. No Taranaki ahau
Mōrena e hoa, wow that’s so awesome! Thank you so much for taking the time to watch our video and comment. Mean mahi e parata, I hope your wānanga goes well!! 👏🏾👏🏾 We are from the Hokianga and the East Coast 🌊
Thanks for the lesson. As I understand from my experiments and other videos, the weight is constrantly shifted from one foot to another. You have your weight equally distributed between your feet only when you explain, so this leg flex also indicates that weight is being shifted forward even when the step is back and visa versa. Did I get ir correctly?
Kia ora!! Wow thank you for the awesome comment and so glad you’re keeping up with our videos and journey. Yes, by reading your comment that definitely makes sense. However, a lot of our movements and the art form of mau rākau isn’t very technical. We don’t break down the technicality of the moves and simply follow the feeling which is something we call wairua or spiritual essence. This is purely from my knowledge and training. Hope that makes sense! Would love to see a snippet of you follow along with us.
@@Tekotiri Tanks for explaination. I have beem taught that in training "if you do not understand - don't do it". Therefore I try to breal the movement down to the constituents and learn them first. It has it's benefits, but as well creates rigidity in the technique. Now I try to overcome this by not to overthinking and see that mau rakau helps with this even though this is a bit out of my comfort zone ;) Good idea to film myself doing your routine, however since this is the mids of wet winter here, I have to gain access to the sports hall and this is not so straight forward :( Since I would have to plan for this, why don't we have a shared trainong sessipn live online - I would teach you something of mine and you would teach me something of mau rakau, and we both could have content to share? ;)
@@bagheerasadventures Mō taku hē (apologies) it’s taken so long for the next video. We’ll be filming this Sunday and hoping to have the video live by the end of next week!! Thank you so much e hoa for following! I hope you e enjoyed the videos so far! Ngā mihi, Jackie.
Kia ora e hoa, yes there will definitely be more content on the way. In the meantime, you can check out our Instagram reels which offers more stances and strikes - instagram.com/calebtekotiri/reels/. :)
Tēnā koe e hoa, happy new year! Of course, we'll make sure to make this an upcoming video for you. Make sure to follow our Instagram e hoa as we have a lot of helpful content on there also. Link here - instagram.com/calebtekotiri/?hl=en. Mauri ora!
Kia ora! It's Jackie here from Calebtekotiri. Caleb is currently in the UK right now and I've not been able to ask him this question. His iwi is Ngāti Porou however I don't believe this is specifically from his iwi. It's just a combination of some of the things he has learnt over the years training and doing mau rākau. Hope that helps e hoa!
tau kē,rapt to find this u guyz...nothing kei te whakatū nei...i totally agree with others,great to see wahine doing this too...
Tēnā koe e hoa, we really appreciate your tautoko! Lot's more to come. Ngā mihi nui, Jackie.
