evey race gets there pride but we're the special case who have to tread carefully buy using phrase like cultural and historical heritage. BSs your shame is strong you should throw off you schackals of white guilt . are you ashamed of who you are and the sins of your fatheres.
As a proud Zulu man from South Africa I must say that this performance is absolutely amazing, the passion and love these children demonstrate for their culture is awe inspising.
Kunjani Buti! Good to see like-minded bra contributing to this. I lived and study 6yrs in SA b4 coming back home country. I respect all the tribes and their cultures moss. I lived in Gauteng(Pretoria) and also Johannesburg, drove all the streets and corner as far as Eastern Cape; King Williams Town, East London lots more. Wonderful culture there. I give it up to SA for that. Proudly SouthAfrican. Mzansi fo so!
I take my hat off to the parents and teachers who are encouraging their children to learn their cultures. I am so proud of these young men and women and what a performance. I am a proud Polynesian from Los Angeles and I thoroughly enjoyed this performance.
I tell you what, you forget that their kids when you watch this. As a Brit i gotta say i really envy the tribal cultures of today. They managed to keep their identity and history intact. Sadly i come from a country that has forgotten its warrior cultures, the Celts, Saxon and Viking. Our history is no longer popular and means nothing to our young. I love videos like these, they show me yhat atleast some people have respect for the past.
I agree 100% - as a descendant of a Scots immigrant to the US I have tried to instill in my sons some sense of their ancestry but to little avail. I find the hakka stirring - if I had such ancestry I would be proud of it as are these kids - they did a tremendous job - a very long program - but very well done.
@@boiifyoudont2952 theres plenty to teach bud. Our history is filled with stories. I know i made it sound like its young peoples fault, maybe it was a little harsh. But it definately needs to be brought up in schools.
@@boiifyoudont2952 I hate to sound like an old lady, being that I'm only 26, there's a ton for the younger generation to learn. Everyone is so invested in Instagram and social media no one remembers their ancestors and the culture that was once flowing strong through their DNA.
Pūkana Pūkana or facial expressions are an important facet of Māori performance. They help emphasise a point in a song or haka, and demonstrate the performer’s ferocity or passion. For women, pūkana involves opening the eyes wide and jutting out their tattood chin. For men, it means widening the eyes and stretching out their tongue or baring their teeth. Though these expressions may be intimidating, they are not necessarily a sign of aggression, but may simply show strong and deep-felt emotions.
I never stop crying when i watch maori culture dance and expressions. You can really feel their ancestors energy flowing through them. How the women are so strong but still looking beautiful. Such a contrast of what a women is today. Also love they tell a story in their dance, you can tell they trying to save and protect their land. Their pain, sadness and strength is shown in every single song and move
Kia ora e hoa! M an African and i still let my children know about their culture. There are times they have Cultural Days in school and I attend with their mum. Very lovely stuffs. Dreaming of NZ already Te na koe!
Я из Сибири. Наши бурятские песни тоже красивые. Но то что я увидела здесь потрясло меня! Мурашки по коже! И чувство гордости за этих ребят! Я прекланяюсь перед вами, за то что вы так бережно относитесь к своей культуре!
that first solo singer (2:15) took me by surprise I must of click back a few times. she needs a record deal wow. but all these kids are outstanding and wowwww. I'm from NY and I'm P.R. I don't even know what they are saying but the energy is crazy.
Most the songs are saying welcome to our land, haere mai (come) we welcome you. Haka is one of the most beautiful experiences in the world. You see fear, beauty, courage in the haka. This haka is one of my favourites. A lot of emotion and heart. You can just feel their ancestors through them. That's what brings the mana out of me. Mean Maori mean
Although I didn't understand the language, the performance was outstanding. I wish other cultures would be as proud of their heritage as these young people.
Bans on First peoples knowing and learning their heritage are still legally in place in many areas. The Maori people have the BEST in this as they are (I believe) the only nation that teaches ALL the children (regardless of background) the Maori language and culture. As Duane pointed out, most First peoples have knowledge of their heritage, but the public is not as aware because the Indian Act (in Canada) and other such documents that restricted their movements and divided them into widely disparate reserves hid the richness of the culture. Things like Pow Wow and other communal activities like these competitions, and even speaking in their own nations' languages, were often illegal and only found life in underground movements. Today, many communities are loosing their culture because of government and religious oppression for generations. Some are regaining it, some are maintaining it, very few are as thriving as thhe Maori culture is. I've met performers who've come for competitions and cultural exchanges before (such as Cultural displays organized around the Olympics) and the Maori have always attracted me the most because of the great spirit that literally exudes from them. Kia Ora and well done to this young group from a Canadian.
I don't understand a word of the singing but that detracts not a whit from the ability of these youngsters to lift my heart with the melody, rhythm and sheer exuberance of their performance. Thanks for brightening up a miserable, cold, wet and windy day.
Damn these tamariki were amazing, I was never at this level when I did Kapa haka at their age. So happy that our performances are improving as the years go by. But this really brings back some good memories growing up back home and makes me miss it a lot being here and watching from Australia now
Hello! I Just discovered this amazing performance ! Îm french and i am à dancer and wooow! I am impressed ! Do you know where i could find the lyrics of all these songs and incantations ? And translation ? Thank you very much !
Found this Yesterday and I've watched it maybe 10 times. Best performance I've ever seen. Their energy and Harmony are Amazing! I didn't notice the Lead Girl before but I heard her. Imagine having to sing loud enough over the group singing and louder than the crowd applauding to be heard. SHE REALLY STOOD OUT! She did a Fantastic job. Hope you post more from the same group. Thank you.
Respect for a proud warrior heritage, long may it continue...you can see the emotion from the kids performing. I hope the Maori culture continues to be passed on and the young ones take it on. Very moving, respect.
I am European origin lady. I am amassed the origin talent, and love of your high quality harmony in music. Also I like the movement....- but I don`t understand the Maory language.
It's almost christmas eve. Although I am spending it alone, I feel stronger and motivated because I have listened to this. I've been listening to different haka recently. I don't know the reason why and I don't understand the words, but it brings out the fire in my heart and it gets deep down to my soul every time. I feel like I belong. Much love and respect from the Philippines. ^_^
Hello from the USA, Panther, and Merry Christmas! I too am alone today, but will see my family soon, hope you will too. I love the haka so much it almost feels as though I must have a Maori ancestor in there somewhere, LOVE the pride of the Maori people in their culture. My emotions go crazy every time I see haka, and this one is THRILLING! Love to see the youth coming up knowing who they are and reveling in it.
@and I want to bring out that same spirit in our youth here. Not exactly doing the same thing as haka but any activities that creates a great bond to preserve our close-ties culture. I hope you'll have great time with your family during the holidays. Please send love to your family from the Philippines. Cheers!

Thank you, and I love what you said about bringing the youth together there in their own celebration of heritage--I believe every child in the world needs such enriching immersion in the best of their people's traditions, sharing all these things with their families and communities. I think we make a huge mistake when we try to leave all that behind. Happy New Year!
That was amazing! What an incredible job they did 👏 I live in the midwest of the US and I've been to quite a few Native festivities. While they can be almost magical they are not powerful like this nor do the children participate at this level. Just incredible.
I came upon these performances by accident I'm English ,so happy that you are keeping your traditional songs and dances in the islands. They are truly wonderful to see I hope they are never forgotten.
It’s amazing how the songs/ melody that start at 11:30 and 13:57 gets into you head. I am out on the golf course and my golfing buddies are asking me what you are humming/whistling.
I've watched other Hakas , Including adults , and I can't find another that gives me goosebumps! Their Performance is Perfect. I discovered this about 3 yrs ago and still gives me goosebumps. Anybody else tear up when watching this? No Idea why I do.
I am from the U.S. and have been in love with the Māori people and their traditions for at least 10 years or more. I have watched as many videos as I can get my hands on, especially the competitions between the groups and the hakas and varied songs. I must admit that this group is one of the very best I have ever seen, especially the haka. Their rhythm, pronunciation, cadence, facial expressions, vocals and much more have been stellar and I am including adult groups in this. They are perfection!!! I hope you all continue…..it would be a shame for your groups to lose you. Thank you for your wonderful performance! Their parents must be so very proud.
Kia Ora! What an absolutely beautiful performance by the Maori Children. It's inspiring to see how New Zealand embraces and celebrates its native culture, setting a wonderful example for the world. The talent displayed by these young children is truly impressive, and it reflects the richness of the culture they inherit. It's commendable that New Zealand has taken a different approach compared to some other countries, respecting and preserving the traditions of the land they inhabit. It's unfortunate that history has not been as kind to the Native Americans in North America, and my heart goes out to them for not having the same opportunities. Marlon Brando's efforts to promote understanding and appreciation for indigenous cultures were indeed brave and commendable. It's a shame that his voice couldn't continue to pave the way for change. In any case, I am genuinely proud of New Zealand as a country and its people. The way they have embraced their heritage while fostering unity is truly remarkable. Wishing Aotearoa (New Zealand) all the very best as a nation going forward!
This is most probably a Kura Kaupapa that's why. It won't be a mainstream school. I garuntee u all of these kids can speak fluent Māori. If it IS a mainstream school (almost 99% sure it won't be), that would be ridiculous
What a small world, the dress, the mosaic patterns so similar to my cultire as well, from Sabah the Kadazan Dusun culture. We have tattoos as well but on the shoulders and the headband is made out of small beads. What a world we live in. The saddest thing is our language almost gone because our cultural event mainly focuses on tourism culture and also choosing the most beautiful girl in the village
The Māori language was nearing extinction also, the first Māori to be educated were punished if they spoke their own language. But fortunately a bunch of elder women gathered and went around the neighbourhood picking up all the young to take home and teach Māori too, which kept our language alive they were so successful they expanded to what is known today as kohanga reo "Māori early child care" and we havent looked back we now have middle and high school teaching Te Reo Māori (Māori language). Te reo Māori was taught in primary school to all races and kapa haka groups were in every school which helped it thrive also.
Muito bom ver essas crianças valorizarem a cultura de seu país , nós brasileiros também perpetuamos nossa cultura..!! abraços a todos e a todas essas lindas crianças ..
I always said, it’s not the men you gotta fear, it’s their women for nothing is more fierce than a woman defending her family and home.
Who says that?

That's how to bring your kids up, strong and proud of their heritage. Fantastic job
But what if i was born white

What has being white got to do with anything?
well if we should the slightest anount of white pride were called racist
@@andrewCNC905
White pride and historical heritage and culture are 2 completely different things though

Joshua Perry we will always teach our kids that. Love that I can call this my culture.

I find the hakka stirring - if I had such ancestry I would be proud of it as are these kids - they did a tremendous job - a very long program - but very well done.
Tbh it's not like we know anything different. It's just how things are. Theres not really anything to teach, its just how we live life.
@@boiifyoudont2952 theres plenty to teach bud. Our history is filled with stories. I know i made it sound like its young peoples fault, maybe it was a little harsh. But it definately needs to be brought up in schools.

The first song they sang is stuck in my head. The melody when all girls and then boys sang ahhh it's so beautiful

Te na koe!
Tena koe brother
Kia kaha Kia Mai.
I'm Samoan but this is really cool to watch. I think all islanders are pretty bad ass especially the people from Maori 👏
From New Zealand*
Im Samoan too but man i feel like the haka speaks to me!!!!

Are they singing Japanese to Japanese audience ?
Maori culture so beautiful!!!
Im crying!! So much emotions
Thanks for this video
Maori is akin to Taiwanese aboriginal .
Same! I’m crying , like they’re my kids or sumthin! 😂😂! So much emotions, a lot of heart in this performance!
The way these people show their love of their ancestors tells a lot about the richness of their culture. Really moving.
Really.
This is how you get a strong and very solid generation, culture and heritage is EVERYTHING in today's world. Great job!
You don't know me, but I'm incredibly proud of you all. You all repped us Māori so beautifully - you're our future and you heal us.

Amazing!!!! This kids are so talented and passionate that makes everything even more wonderful 😍
Much respect and admiration to your race . Never change.
The starting face me chills the harmony of their voices blending and the girl who sang solo chur ma girls proud to be maori 😭😍‼️
2024 and I still go back to this performance. I hope the kids are doing well after all these years.
the haka always gives me gosebumps whenever i watch this
Damn our kapas wasn’t like that when I was in primary
Aye this shit is on point👌
Right?
Yes, these group performances get better and better; all power to them!
Mine was cringe. The boys were shit as and too scared to do a haka infront of the crowd. All the boys looked like juniors haha
This is most probably a Kura Kaupapa that's why. It won't be a mainstream school. I garuntee u all of these kids can speak fluent Māori. If it IS a mainstream school (almost 99% sure it won't be), that would be ridiculous
these kids are all around 12-13 or younger. wow
Who told them to be so fxcking good? BIG PROPS TO THE CHOREOGRAPHER!!! Enjoyable watch from beginning to end.
