    Kapa Haka is the collection of songs and dance vs the Haka the world sees. Kapa haka is the intrinsic link we have to our ancestors, genealogy and culture. Kapa Haka encompasses sets/ brackets that usually have an entrance song, a choral song, a chant, an action song, a poi - usually flirtatous, a haka and an exit song. There are competitions at school level, adults, within our tribal regions and nationally to represent those regions. The brackets can talk about issues of the time, political or otherwise or to acknowledge history. Maori is an official language of our Country and we have total immersion language schools from preschool, to High School and we also have Maori based Universities in mainstream curriculum.❤️

    Kapa Haka is part of the reason why Parris Goebal and the Royal Family Dance crew Dominated world hip hop dance scene for years . Timing and transitions . I love the similarities between NZ Maori and other Native peoples of the pacific including American and Canadian Natives , we belong to the land the land doesn,t belong to us .

    These are our kids - high school students. They're at adult calibre now. Our kids are brought up with their culture, especially this kapa group. If you can feel the items they sing and dance, then they're giving it justice. A lot of our songs portray today and past events, tell our stories of our ancestors.

  • @WitlessGaming
    @WitlessGaming Před 6 měsíci +17

    Love your reaction at 2:36. That first song is a prayer really. So here is a rough translation of what I could hear:
    "May your glory and your spirit pour down upon your people the blessings of heaven.
    Peace be upon the earth, God's blessing from heaven.
    ...looked at the sky above them and cried God listen to your people."
    Some parts I couldn't quite make out but that is roughly what they are saying. ☺

    @zealantis Před 7 měsíci +16

    The spear like weapon used in this haka is called a taiaha, it was never ever thrown by warriors and chiefs of war armys because it was seen as sacred, it was fought hand to hand in a fast battle which could only be fought by warriors trained to have fast reflexes which was basically every Māori man except the slaves of tribes, there are hardly any videos of taiaha fighting because it is seen as scared but in real life it is so crazy, like the matrix agents fighting type shit but I thought I just mention that every weapon was fought in hand to hand combat except one which was called the koikoi

    NZ is rich with culture and not just our own, its interesting to hear in your schools that other cultures aren't taught? My daughter (11) just this week celebrated Diwali.. The whole school came together and celebrated as one.. Off the top of my head her school has also celebrated Chinese new year, Maori language week, Samoan language week, Matariki (Maori New year) and so many more...

    The two you are asking about that are dressed in our cultures ( korowai )” dresscode from different areas of the country but they are the leaders of their group which have been hand picked from there tutors who teach them songs, choreography and dresscode … hope this helps this is all taught and learnt over a matter of weeks and months. And what your definitely feeling is the( wairua) which is the spirit the everything around us ❤️❤️❤️

  • @pairomcleod2271

  • @caitlinstockman1747
    @caitlinstockman1747 Před 2 měsíci +1

    We have a very special culture (Maori), and they are wearing what we would consider our ceremonial dress, or Kakahu. Kapahaka competitions began in the 1970's and were a form of protest for our people against the things our government were putting us through and also served as a way to bring our people together to spread word to the rest of the country about issues that would arise. Our people are an oral people and through our language, songs and haka we keep our history and traditions alive. Today Kapahaka still lives on strong and it still serves a place to bring our people together in both celebration and in grievance ❤

    When you decide to come to Aotearoa (New Zealand) time it for when our national maori competition is on. Ask online how do you get tickets and one of our whanau (family) will embrace you. You need to experience this live at be there to feel and understand it hosted by a maori whanau (family). I belive you have support already in Aotearoa ❤

    The Demouchets - FYI if you are curious! Australia in 2017, The Indigenous life expectancy in the cities at birth was estimated to be 72 years for Indigenous males and 77 years for Indigenous females. As this data is from 2017 the life expectancy could have risen. ........... United States 2021 Life expectancy for the U.S. population in 2021 was 76.4 years, As this data is from 2021 the life expectancy could have risen.

    All I know about kapa haka is some of the origins like kapa haka was created to connect to gods and to dance and entertain and the other side of kapa haka was created a lot later when a war broke out when settlers came to nz trying to claim the land and Māoris attacked the settlers come back with muskets and that’s where a war breaks out and since the Māoris are at a clear disadvantage since they only had spears they would use hakas to scare their enemies by hitting themselves with their weapons on the head and now kapa haka is used to connect to our gods our roots and our ancestors

    Kapa Hapa tells a story, a story of (Whanau) family, (Te Maunga) their mountain (Moana) their ocean and (Motu) their forest. There are events every year where Tribes (Iwi) come together to celebrate the history and go head to head in a competition, just like they would have done when meeting each other in Tribal regions. Maori language is called Te Reo. Kapa Haka shows a tribes strength and unity. As a Kiwi, it still gives me the shivers.
