Maaate, really appreciating your respect for our Native here of Aotearoa NZ and their custom of the Haka. I reckon you'd appreciate this one - nice and short. Haka Doc by Beats by Dre. PNBHS Haka for retired teacher and Emotional Wedding Haka 👌🏾🙏🏾💯 Stay well Mate 💪🏾💯 PS: I'm sure someone has mentioned the Welsh response to the All Black Haka, I remember watching it has a kid and just feeling hype and Admiring how Wales accepted the challenge 💪🏾👌🏾💯 Note, the Pacific Nations also have Hakas of their own. Samoa is called the Siva Tau Tonga is called the Sipi Tau Fiji is called the Cibi Cook Islands also call theirs a Haka too I believe..
A non sporting Haka to watch is the Thriller Haka to Poi E From Taika Waititi's "Boy". A Haka choreographed to a world famous (in New Zealand) song called Poi E by the Patea Maori Club. To get the full impact you need to watch the original video (from 1987) as the original moves have been incorporated into the "Boy" version.
The first Haka, was written for the All Blacks. And is performed more recently. the Ka Mate is the one most people know. There are as many Hakas as you want. The womens football teams have their own Hakas In New Zealand there are Kapa Haka groups and competitions. A Haka is not just a War dance. It is done at funerals and weddings and is a mark of respect for opponents, and others
Kia ora, there is so much lore involved but basically, “Haka” is typically a “war dance” portraying no fear of your opponent and/or death. It’s the final act of preparing and channelling the wairua (spirit) before going into battle. Welcome to the world of the indigenous New Zealander (Te Ao Maori). The All Black brand name originated from an all black uniform (how original lol). Translation in the indigenous language is: Te - (The) Kapa - (group/team) O - (of) Pango - (black). Cultural Appropriation is beginning to find a more level playing field (excuse the pun). Where, now days it’s more ceremonial and acceptable since the early colonial days and that’s called progress, long may NZ continue to be a light or beacon of hope for other indigenous cultures around the world to exist and grow together Paimarire (peace)
And these are football players, not dancers! They have many different Haka's, they even do it at weddings! 😳 The second one was a war stance, I believe, lucky they weren't wearing the full costume! 😩 I've just been looking up Norfolk Island, the women there perform Hawaiian Dancing - their heritage is Tahitian, Pitcairn and British mutineers! 🤨 I learned a Maori song "Pokarekare Ana" at school, and I have lived in Wellington! 🤗
There was a game, many years ago, between the all blacks and tonga, and the people filming it weren't totally familiar with various haka traditions, specifically WHEN the opposing team starts theirs. In Tonga it's started during the opposing team's haka, so the camera guys missed part of it. I was watching it on telly with my mum, she explained it to me and we had a laugh.
I was at the game. Rugby World Cup 2003 Suncorp Stadium. However I didn’t realise (obviously being at the game) til I went home to watch the replay while trying to see if I made it on tv lol
Psychological Warfare 101 Remember Māoris were head hunters and they did cannibalise their slain foes. They were incredible warriors and formidable foes. Thank goodness for us Aussies they’re our besties. Pukana or tongue poking, sticking out the tongue is either used to intimidate, evoke a response, to challenge, to insult, a prelude to a battle or it can have sexual connotations demonstrate the person's sexual prowess or to show the persons confidence, cockiness or the person is giving you cheek….which is a prelude a fight. Also remembering the pukana in conjunction with the body posturing, body language, arm, and leg movements and facials will indicate which of the above the person doing the pukana is trying to establish. Turning your back on the person doing the pukana will invigorate and highly motivated the person because you have given him an edge, showen weakness and disrespect. Remembering again in pre-Pākehā times it was usually a fight to the death. The loser either been killed or badly maimed. The ultimate goal of the haka is to insult - intimidate - fight - kill - cook - eat your adversary. *Google the Māori term for a dish called “Puha and Pākehā (Puha = leafy plant like milk thistle, used when cooking fatty meats to draw off the fat. Pākehā = white pig, another name for white man). When a Māori used to say this term to a white person, it meant- I will kill you and eat you, white pig. The throat slitting Hakas are no longer considered PC. Here’s an example of one: th-cam.com/video/yiKFYTFJ_kw/w-d-xo.html
OK, so I'm a woman, and the following link is to my favourite haka - a school (of boys) perform the haka for their retiring teacher. An amazing display of respect. th-cam.com/video/lt6GRghrmaU/w-d-xo.html
There's nothing like a Maori Haka. It's no wonder New Zealanders of all backgrounds will throw everything of themselves into learning how to do a proper traditional Haka.
I was as the game the first time they did the new haka with the throat cut motion at the end (which they got in trouble for iirc) the crowd went absolutely beserk! Even as kiwis we love a good ABs haka! ETA they used to jump at the end but stopped doing that years ago, pity it was cool to watch
Excellent vid! I wouldn't want to have been those French guys. There was a flood of Kiwi immigrants to Australia in the early 80s. I befriended a couple of Kiwi girls in my class. In an attempt to educate the class about Kiwi culture, my well-meaning teacher asked one of my friends to fetch her younger brother from his class. Then he made them do the haka in front of us all. They were really embarrassed - the haka didn't have quite the same power performed by a couple of skinny white kids 😂
Watching the Haka before the game always sends a shiver down my spine, even more so when attending the game. The first haka was specifically created for the All Blacks. The Black Ferns (national women's team and the Sevens teams, as do the Kiwis, the rugby league team) also have their own hakas.
The second haka was written in the early 1800s by Maori Chief Te Rauparaha to celebrate his escape from his enemies who were pursuing him. The wooden "axe" is a Tewhatewha (pronounced tefa tefa) It is a two handed weapon usually with feathers at the top. The feathers were to distract your rival in a fight.
Have a look at the Haka in the 2008 Rugby League World Cup Final. The video is titled. “2008 League World Cup Final Haka *High Quality*. The video has been uploaded by Hayden Shooshkebab.
They stick their tongue out to feel the temperature, sensing anything in the air aswell as smells., like a snake. 😁 Seeing mouris do it in their tradition war outfit and they can be bloody scary, and amazing to watch and hear, the face tattoos and the intimidation factor jumps to another level. The 2 most scariest native war cry, dance are The Mouris and then The Zulus, that is terrfying hearing thousand of zulu warriors. I am sure I would not stick around while the fijians did their war chant in the past as you might be on their dinned plate that night.
"Ka Mate" is the traditional Ngati Toa haka, supposedly written by the great war leader Te Rauparaha himself. "Kapa O Pango" is a modern haka adopted in 2005 to reflect NZs changing demography and acknowledge the contributions of Pacific Islanders. "Ka Mate" is mostly now only performed on what were once Te Rauparaha's lands as a mark of respect. There are many, many versions of the haka. Different schools have their own, the different armed services have their own, and in the past 30 years it has become more popular at weddings and funerals. (At the only wedding I have been a Best Man at, nearly 25 years ago, the grooms family performed a haka.) To gain a better understanding of the haka, you should see it performed by people using it to collectively express a powerful emotion. Have a good one!
the french getting that close to the haka is taken as a challenge by the all blacks..... not a very bright move ....always best to watch and respect NZ as they do the haka ..... never confront it .... most times it wont go well for you...

Nearly, except without the "r". It's also not pronounced "Hacka", as many English speakers trip up on. Maori vowel sounds are always the same, (in fact, they are identical to Japanese vowel sounds): "A" is pronounced "Ah", "E" is always "Eh", "I" is always pronounced "ee" (as in "feet"), "O" is always pronounced as in "hot", "U" is always pronounced as in "hoot" Not having a go at Mark Flint, just trying to justify my 90s Maori language Uni classes!
I'm Australian but absolutely love the Haka, just so inspiring to me. I wish the indigenous people in Australia were respected like this
I 100% agree our aboriginal people need to be more respected
All I can say is thank god their our friendly neighbours, and one day we might be able to beat them in Union. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂 probably the same day when NZ consistently beats Australia in rugby league, good on ya mate 👍🏾
@@johntepu1869 Cheers mate
Nah but we do love you too cuz
You get the odd win here and there mate (just not at Eden park or the Bledeslow)

They give me chills!
The second one was very appropriate to the conditions - the smoke had blocked out the sun. I wonder if it was chosen for that reason?
Fantastic! Gets Me Every time!

Thanks for the awesome video, loved the French & Kiwi’s at the end 😂
My favourite Haka video was one where an entire assembly hall full of high school students performed Haka to honour a retiring teacher.
I love watching YOU watching the haka...priceless 🙏🇦🇺❤

U got it brotha.....
When we perform Haka we become ONE ❤
There's nothing like a Maori Haka. It's no wonder New Zealanders of all backgrounds will throw everything of themselves into learning how to do a proper traditional Haka.
There is one showing a Military funeral, hundreds of men giving their farewell to their comrade. Very worth watching.

They weren't French,they were from Argentina
The Haka is ferocious! Aussie indigenous culture have their own version of the war cry but the Kiwi Haka is still beyond compare!

Nearly, except without the "r". It's also not pronounced "Hacka", as many English speakers trip up on.
