HAKA TEAM BUILDING WITH REAL ALL BLACKS CHAMPIONS

Team building Haka recreates the most famous Maori dance in the world.

The Haka is the typical dance of the Maori people, the original ethnic group of New Zealand.
The Haka was made famous, in the style of the "Ka Mate", by the All Blacks, the New Zealand national rugby team. 

What is the Haka?
In his book "Maori Games and Haka", scholar Alan Armstrong describes the Haka thus:

"The Haka is a composition played with many instruments. Hands, feet, legs, body, voice, tongue, eyes... all play their part in bringing together the challenge, the welcome, the exultation, or the contempt contained in the words. It is disciplined, yet emotional. More than any other aspect of Maori culture, this complex dance is the expression of the passion, vigor and identity of the race. It is, at its best, a message of the soul expressed through words and attitudes."

It is therefore a dance that expresses the inner feeling of those who perform it, and can have multiple meanings. In fact, it is not just a war or intimidating dance, as it is often mistakenly considered, but it can also be a manifestation of joy, of pain, a way of free expression that leaves those who perform it moments of freedom in their movements. .

The Haka takes on multiple meanings. 
It's a dance 
It's a demonstration 
It's a moment of group cohesion

A frightening force!” This is the feedback you often hear from those who have seen or experienced HAKA.

Through dance, shouting, body and facial expressions, a group feels cohesive and consequently takes on courage and strength. He overcomes the fear of conflict and becomes one with his companions.

THE METHODOLOGY
It is through imitation that in ancient times the student became a teacher. It is always through imitation that the child becomes a father.

Imitation is not the banal repetition of meaningless gestures, but the profound awareness of repeating gestures as ancient as man.
