I'm not Samoan and I'm not Hawaiin.... but it lives in me. I grew up partially in HI and it's an experience I could never describe. I'm NOT CAPABLE of watching these and not FEELING it. It does sumthin for me as if I WERE Polynesian. I've learned about the history of Polynesian people and their struggle and I relate to it. It was THEM who took me under their arms and showed me the Local way. They taught me a lot about what it was to be a local. They taught how to respect the Ina and it's people. Til this day HI is my home. DC is HOME, home, cuz that's where I'm from. But HI is home as well. I'm HOME when I'm on the islands. 💯
I'm a Samoan Kiwi, born and bred in NZ but now living in Australia. The Haka is a Maori tradition, but we in Samoa have our own and it's not called a Haka. Just like all other Polynesians, they all have a similar war cry. The Haka in sports is an All Black thing. So there is no disrespect for the Haka because the New Zealand All Blacks were the first to ever have such a war cry before every game. But it's not a Maori thing only. The Hawaii Warriors are not exploiting or stealing the Haka, they are expressing themselves in a war cry like my Manu Samoa Rugby team do when they perform the Manu (our own traditional war cry) If it hadn't have been for the all conquering All Blacks rugby team, there would never have been a haka in the sporting arena. The All Blacks now have their own personal Haka, the Kapa O Pango. Leave these poly boys to do what is tradition in all Pacifica. Thanks to the All Blacks, they have made the Haka acceptable in the sporting world and admired globally and allowed us as Polynesians know that we too an express ourselves through our own War Cry.
100% uso!! But i think this is makaga (embarrassing ) tbh. And this is why . Maori , Samoan , Islanders all relate to their own traditions, rituals , war crys etc... They identify with their traditions through 100s -1000s years of ancestry , its embedded in each cultures dna . Heres the difference , im willing to bet not many of these kids actually know what it means , probably don't have the depth of knowledge or teachings to comprehend what a haka is , and what it means to its people. But it aint their fault also , because its not culturally in their blood . How many do you think do kapahaka , how many do you think speak maori when they get home , it aint their traditions so its nothing more to them than a fancy, threatining Braveheart speech before battle. THATS WHY THIS IS SAD .Probably dont even know that the simplest of actions (the tounge poke ) was a threat to enemy reenacting how they would look when they were dead... I think its wrong uso . Identify and perform your own history. If i saw tomorrow for an example , an asian footy team performing Samoas siva tau then id be 100% in disagreement.
Faatima Hislander yeah, it’s not about ethnicity or blood, it’s about respecting a different tradition and delivering it with meaning. The guys in the front did well, not so sure about EVERYONE ELSE in the back.
@@faatimahislander6089 But who's Asian?Siberians?Indians?Mongolians? Chinese?Pakistani?Asia is a big ass continent that includes tons of people too afterall.
Though I'm sad at seeing so few instances of the Ha'a Koa being performed, I gotta admit that the haka dance is pretty impressive, and if they performed this in front of me I would run away crying.
I saw one preformed at a luau a few hours ago by only three people, and I can tell you it’s extremely intimidating, especially because of the tone shift. Video really doesn’t show you how loud it is. Scary stuff.
This is the best haka I've seen, the voices in unison...so powerful...much respect. I'm not of this descent but desire this level of brotherhood portrayed here.
Kia ora brothers thank you for learning our haka. This haka is from my ancestors Ngati Kahungunu it is a very powerful haka and you have done a great job...all of you🤙
When someone visited the village a Haka was performed and it served two purposes, as welcome... and as warning. Powerful warriors live here, behave yourself.
fobfury yes. They must be ashamed of their hula or thought that it looked cool when the all blacks do it and copied it with complete disregard of cultural meaning. Eitherway its a strong indication that their own culture must be getting weaker and weaker. They are all too stupid to realise that hawaii and new zealand, though both polynesian are thousands and thousands of kilometres away from each other and have completley different cultures and customs. They do share similarities but its like comparing incas to cherokee or spanish to russians...
I think its cool that there doing the haka but cant they make up there own hawaiian one. I seen one of the highschools or universities do a haka that was specifically made for the the all blacks. And they do it all the time. Creativity is the key
Jesse Watson so what if your half maori, u should respect both cultural backgrounds, and also continue learning it and passing it on so that the tradition won't be forgotten
Some Tongan/ Samoans here. Some of their stances is like they do in the Tongan "Sipi Tau" standing side on and their Cha Hoo at 0:30 puts me off. We were never allowed to display our tongues like this at school either. Not going to hate because they don't know, but mixed emotions atm.
@@evilpsyop Thats definitely not hawaiians culture bro , search up Māori haka NZ . Its either they adopted it from Māori because we have similar language or we just have the same haka which i highly doubt. No disrespect because we are Polys 💯 and we are connected through the same stream of blood if we go far back in time.
Dont get me wrong I felt the MANA. But Hawaii has there own traditional war dance. when we perform the haka in NZ its because we wear our pride on our shoulders and represent our maori heritage. Hawaiians also have an awesome traditional haka or Ha'a Koa. A big part of the haka is that we get to Represent our Maori heritage. I think it would be awesome if you guys did a traditional Hawaiian Ha'a Koa.
Sorry to say but most people not even some Polynesians respect us Kanaka maoli. The Haka is well now by all . Samoans and Tongans in NFL. You allot mad respect all over. People use our culture for tourism,
@@sasquatch8268maybe, maybe not. But that’s a whole lot of Hawaiians doing this who could turn around and say we will do our own, not take from our brothers and sisters in New Zealand
Looks like Hawaii can team up with New Zealand, that reminds me. That’s why I like the Polynesian culture of New Zealand and Hawaii. Because that’s the way they do. I like New Zealanders, Kiwis, Hawaiians and Maori people, too.
More like Hawaiians copying off NZ. The Haka is always exclusively Maori. Not we, us or ours. Only Maori. Props to their performance, however, they should be focusing on revitalising the dying indigenous Hawaiian Culture than doing a NZ Haka that has nothing to do with Hawai'i.
Personally I am honoured that Hawaiians are doing a Maori haka. Some will disagree but in my heart it seems right as we in the Pacific are especially connected.
BS, us Maoris from NZ don't even know the Hawaiians like that 🗿 The only people in new Zealand that do the haka are Samoans, tongans, etc since most of us grew up with them, not no Hawaiian
@@lostdracco6744 IKR? There's like very little numbers of Native Hawaiians living in NZ compared to us Samoans and Tongans and even still, when Tonga and Samoa play for their own team, the players never do the Haka. This entitled mentality of these US Polys have or their "Hawaii and NZ are both polys and therefore the same" or "the haka brings people together" statements are just lame ass excuses so they can do the Haka to make them look cool or portray the tropical, long haired, heavy tatted, lavalava wearing warrior when the Maori aren't even that at all. The Hawaiians are as about the same as the NZ Maoris as every other Poly. I don't know why they want to add some mysticism or secret close connection link when they are no different from the next Poly. Heck the Cook Islands Maori, and the Tahitians have much more closer connections than the Hawaiians.
Mate first off if i was 1 of those maori boys doing the haka i would at least go back to my turangawaewae or iwi (belonging place or tribe) and speak with the kaumatua(elders) to see if its okay, after all this tradition is sacred to our people in all accounts and should not be used if u dont have the mana or wairua to understand it. Im half samoan/maori and i know this stuff, its all about being considerate of cultures. E.g. you dont leo or cheehoo in a haka
Im Maori and agree. Polynesian culture is a lot deeper then what people think. Maori, Samoan Tongan all have certain protocols to each culture. There is a spiritual/Ancestral aspect to the haka that non maori do not understand
They’ll teach you and if they don’t just watch this video and practice I know the UH haka and the highschool I’m in, Kahuku you’ll get it and I’ll love to see you play next time I go to the game 💯🤙
I thought the dance in Hawaii is hula and in new zealand is Haka? The dance and the Maori and hawaiian tattoos looking similar to me as a German. Can sb explain it to me pls?
All Polynesians do haka it was just popularized by the Māori the Māori language and Hawaiian is almost the same not separated by land but connected by water hula became popular in Hawaii because it’s women only American tourists don’t want to see haka there kids cry and there afraid of it the Christian missionaries banned Hawaiian haka a long time ago but make no mistake this is not cultural appropriation ok
In my eyes it's good to see the Haka getting out their it's good to see Maori ways has some good influence on the world Nek minute Chinese will be doing the Haka then the Germans,,, who actually faced a a real life or death Haka 28th Maori battalion style. Respect our Hawaiian breathers coming from a Maori boy from,,,,, Te tai rawhiti o te ika a Maui (East coast of the North island) chur
As someone who is from the tribe that this Haka comes from, wtf. Were you not taught properly? Or did you teach yourself? I’m sure you have Hawaiian version to perform instead
This haka is from the tribe of ngāti kahungunu in Hawkes Bay New Zealand. And was composed by waimarama puhara for his son to tell him to "do what is right" hence the phrase "Tika tonu". Therefore it should be performed in the right setting or to a male. I am Maori of Ngāpuhi and Ngāti Kahungunu ki porangahau decent. I love our culture both as māori and kanaka maōli being expressed. Just bare in mind to be appropriate to the culture it hails from.
The leader and the guy 2nd in from the left make this haka look legit... the rest got no mana and spirit in my opinion! Why don't they make a Hawaiian haka... that way they can rock it out whenever they come against a NZ team. You can't do this against a New Zealand team you will probably be embarrassed!
LEE SOLID my cousin jahlani tavai the one with the long hair , did pretty good , and all of them as well, i know its your opinion , but i think they all did legit 🔥
If I had been a soldier back in the day, and came across a fighting group like this, I’d be scared to death! They ain’t afraid of no toxic masculinity! Right-on!
Polynesian culture is beautiful. I wonder what the original / ancestral Haka would have been like before all the different Polynesian groups migrated to different islands and start diverging from one another.
josh collardey Same People.. I’m from Micronesia, and in our stories we came South and the North betrayed us all.. my people went to Central Pacific and Maori our alliances went South to those islands.. the people of Hawaii are both Oldest Clans and Youngest Clans of Asian united under Kameahmeah.. the Youngest Clans came from Asia and took Most our islands.. the Oldest Clans were already in the New World with us.. it was Israelites who welcomed the Oldest Clans of Asians to the New World.. Natives did not welcome Natives, doesn’t make sense.. so we already had our God, but the ones from Asia came and brought their Gods so my people from Marshall Islands came and we helped the wars South and we chased the enemies to the mountains of Americas.. they did not flee from Spanish. They actually fled from all of us.. idk you’ll have to do your studies.. but my people fled from Hawaii.. we are Natives of all Northern Islands but it was overtaken.. the Maori we shared lands with because we became 1 when We welcomed them.. my people are now in Central Pacific, all those islands used to be ours.. and Midway and Johnston Islands and wake Islands my people tried fighting Americans I. Court for those lands again.. Main islands Hawaii was overtaken, we still had the smaller islands in the ends of Hawaii, but Americans claimed it for a midpoint launching point and refueling station between America and Asia for World War 2. Hawaii is actually AWA YE which means PLACE OF TIME.. Hawaiians do not know what Hawaii means, they only guess, but that’s in our language that’s why.. you won’t find natives there, they’re now mixed in with those invaders and took their ways.. we fled to Central Pacific
Always a bunch of haters on here. Polys should support polys no matter if they are Hawaiian, Samoan, Tongan, Maori. We are all Polynesians and the Maori should be proud that people love their Haka even though they don’t do it right because they are not poly or weren’t raise Poly. I’m always proud to see Poly influence wherever I go and it makes me proud to be Polynesian. Quit the hating because if you’re Poly that you know all that hate is not part of our culture.
It’s not a matter of ethnicity, it’s just a matter of respecting other cultures. I don’t think these Kanaka Maoli “stole” anything, I think they should’ve just put more mana into it (the guys in the back specifically) If you can’t show the spirit, get outta the pic.
Kahore e tika makes my head hang low and my tipuna would be disgraced.All good to do it but do it right for my peoples sake theres plenty of kaha and ihi but the kupu and mita are kino whats with all the arm flailing theres definate actions to be done its not a freeflow haka.MANA MAORI AKE AKE we had to fight to keep our tikanga and kaupapa alive please dont disrespect it.
@@up.northbro I guess you could call it their own version. The "ceremonial cry" is a performance DEVELOPED in a lot of our Polynesian cultures. For example the Siva Tau which is the Samoans version of the haka, was never part of historical culture. It was developed due to witnessing the All blacks performing Ka Mate, and then it basically caused a domino effect with our other Polynesian cultures developing their own version of a "ceremonial cry". The haka will rightfully forever belong to our Maori brothers and sisters.
@@genzee2475 It all comes down to Cultural misappropriation you know. Its just sad that our Polynesian cousins would butcher something that's considered sacred in the Maori culture. I guess don't do it if you ain't gonna do it right cause this hot mess is sloppy as hell and disrespectful period...smh
That is Hawaiian haka they are called kanaka maoli in newzealand there called tangata Māori there languages are almost identical I dare you to come to Hawaii and talk some shit like that any one of those men would fuck you up you punk bitch yea come here I’ll show you I’ll clean the public bathroom with you’re face you faka
This sounds like the haka from kahuku high school...but from years ago=) But Kahuku high now has a haka specifically made for them. Just MY opinion, this haka performed by the UH wahines - oops, I mean warriors (oooookaaay) lacked what the the red raiders had when chantting it... i.e. heart,passion and confidence...just saying=)
it's the Tika Tonu haka, that's why. it's actually a haka about becoming a man. but they do it too fast amd it almost seems like they don't know the true meaning behind it
ae ra ehoa tika tonu is ment to be performed real slow.they rushing it like alot of maoris do.alot of peeps dont no that its ment to be performed slow but ehoa i must give it to these young fallas,for non maori performing this haka they did it staunch as.at least there kupu it correct...
Good on them man. respect .representing us in the states .Haka .. a true expression of strength and mana willing to fight or protect your whanau to the death. poly dabin on fools, haters gone hate and the sun will still rise the next day. ka nui te pai👍✊.
good performance the haka dance they should perform it in movies like the movie with dwayne johnson the rock was that hobbs and shaw movie I watch with the haka dance they even have that in hawaii five o the tv drama on CBS
Crazy question but is this dance towards some one or a God? No disrespect at all just figured I'd ask. Mawmaw always said there's no dumb question but the one unasked.
The name of the haka is tika tonu . Its about a father teaching his son to basically become a man it goes deeper than that but that is the short version. It took 2 years but hey u finally got an answer

No chest slapping thigh slapping. It's hand movement (wiri) and pukana for females. Not so violent but more feminine ❤

Therefore it should be performed in the right setting or to a male. I am Maori of Ngāpuhi and Ngāti Kahungunu ki porangahau decent. I love our culture both as māori and kanaka maōli being expressed. Just bare in mind to be appropriate to the culture it hails from.
Jiikkkllkkkkkkkkoolloo
Uuuuuuuuyyyuyyyyyy
The leader and the guy 2nd in from the left make this haka look legit... the rest got no mana and spirit in my opinion!
Why don't they make a Hawaiian haka... that way they can rock it out whenever they come against a NZ team. You can't do this against a New Zealand team you will probably be embarrassed!
LEE SOLID Because the haka isn't from Hawaii or it's culture.
It was first created by Maori warriors.

LEE SOLID my cousin jahlani tavai the one with the long hair , did pretty good , and all of them as well, i know its your opinion , but i think they all did legit 🔥
@@nathaniose8057 are you hawaiian bro?
If I had been a soldier back in the day, and came across a fighting group like this, I’d be scared to death! They ain’t afraid of no toxic masculinity! Right-on!
Hey hey is that Jahlani in the front there?
Polynesian culture is beautiful. I wonder what the original / ancestral Haka would have been like before all the different Polynesian groups migrated to different islands and start diverging from one another.
I would like to know what is behind this man facade
Did some one put them on fast-forward
I listen to this instead of music when I hit my pr
I didn't know Hawaiians and maori's had a similar language
josh collardey Both Polynesian
All Polynesian Languages are dialects of Austronesian, Maori, the people of Rapanui/Easter Island and Cook Islands are closest in Language.
josh collardey Same People.. I’m from Micronesia, and in our stories we came South and the North betrayed us all.. my people went to Central Pacific and Maori our alliances went South to those islands.. the people of Hawaii are both Oldest Clans and Youngest Clans of Asian united under Kameahmeah.. the Youngest Clans came from Asia and took Most our islands.. the Oldest Clans were already in the New World with us.. it was Israelites who welcomed the Oldest Clans of Asians to the New World.. Natives did not welcome Natives, doesn’t make sense.. so we already had our God, but the ones from Asia came and brought their Gods so my people from Marshall Islands came and we helped the wars South and we chased the enemies to the mountains of Americas.. they did not flee from Spanish. They actually fled from all of us.. idk you’ll have to do your studies.. but my people fled from Hawaii.. we are Natives of all Northern Islands but it was overtaken.. the Maori we shared lands with because we became 1 when We welcomed them.. my people are now in Central Pacific, all those islands used to be ours.. and Midway and Johnston Islands and wake Islands my people tried fighting Americans I. Court for those lands again.. Main islands Hawaii was overtaken, we still had the smaller islands in the ends of Hawaii, but Americans claimed it for a midpoint launching point and refueling station between America and Asia for World War 2. Hawaii is actually AWA YE which means PLACE OF TIME.. Hawaiians do not know what Hawaii means, they only guess, but that’s in our language that’s why.. you won’t find natives there, they’re now mixed in with those invaders and took their ways.. we fled to Central Pacific
Lonely Scout Oh. My dad is 100% pure Kanaka Maoli, actually. There’s less than 8,000 left. So please differentiate between Maoli, and “Hawaiians”
Its almost the same caption cook was baffled by this
Somebody explain to me the connection between the Māori and the Hawaiians, because I know it's not nothin'-I just don't understand it quite yet
Always a bunch of haters on here. Polys should support polys no matter if they are Hawaiian, Samoan, Tongan, Maori. We are all Polynesians and the Maori should be proud that people love their Haka even though they don’t do it right because they are not poly or weren’t raise Poly. I’m always proud to see Poly influence wherever I go and it makes me proud to be Polynesian. Quit the hating because if you’re Poly that you know all that hate is not part of our culture.
Koa-Moke73 ^^^^
It’s not a matter of ethnicity, it’s just a matter of respecting other cultures. I don’t think these Kanaka Maoli “stole” anything, I think they should’ve just put more mana into it (the guys in the back specifically) If you can’t show the spirit, get outta the pic.

But..... completely amazing
Are all of them polynesian ?
If you look back in Hawaiian culture the Haka never existed or was never a ritual performed by their ancestors. Just saying!!
I didnt know that.. i always thought all poly cultures had their own version of the haka
@@up.northbro I guess you could call it their own version. The "ceremonial cry" is a performance DEVELOPED in a lot of our Polynesian cultures. For example the Siva Tau which is the Samoans version of the haka, was never part of historical culture. It was developed due to witnessing the All blacks performing Ka Mate, and then it basically caused a domino effect with our other Polynesian cultures developing their own version of a "ceremonial cry". The haka will rightfully forever belong to our Maori brothers and sisters.
@@reefata7054 wow i didnt know that i always thought the siva tau was as old as ka mate very imteresting thank u for sharing that ree.. Mauri ora
ikr! I dont think people realize this, like the haka they did was from another culture, i wonder if they knew what that haka was even for lol
@@genzee2475 It all comes down to Cultural misappropriation you know. Its just sad that our Polynesian cousins would butcher something that's considered sacred in the Maori culture. I guess don't do it if you ain't gonna do it right cause this hot mess is sloppy as hell and disrespectful period...smh
I did that shit sick as fuck mad respect to the islands
Bruh dats a Maori haka g newzealand not Hawaii

Preparing for the Spirit
To depart the body
Strange to see other cultures doing the Haka. But good on them on and great to see other nation taken in the Maori culture.
remember when dudes used to have dance offs before killing each other?
This sounds like the haka from kahuku high school...but from years ago=) But Kahuku high now has a haka specifically made for them. Just MY opinion, this haka performed by the UH wahines - oops, I mean warriors (oooookaaay) lacked what the the red raiders had when chantting it... i.e. heart,passion and confidence...just saying=)
it's the Tika Tonu haka, that's why. it's actually a haka about becoming a man. but they do it too fast amd it almost seems like they don't know the true meaning behind it
ae ra ehoa tika tonu is ment to be performed real slow.they rushing it like alot of maoris do.alot of peeps dont no that its ment to be performed slow but ehoa i must give it to these young fallas,for non maori performing this haka they did it staunch as.at least there kupu it correct...

good performance the haka dance they should perform it in movies like the movie with dwayne johnson the rock was that hobbs and shaw movie I watch with the haka dance they even have that in hawaii five o the tv drama on CBS
Crazy question but is this dance towards some one or a God? No disrespect at all just figured I'd ask. Mawmaw always said there's no dumb question but the one unasked.
The name of the haka is tika tonu . Its about a father teaching his son to basically become a man it goes deeper than that but that is the short version. It took 2 years but hey u finally got an answer
Tika tonu is very popular
