Elder Mauigoa HaKa 

For those wondering why they get emotional watching the Haka its because its Tribal. It calls to the tribal side of all of us. Our blood our bones our spirit hears it and remembers when we we're all part of a Tribe. Europe, the Americas, Africa, Polynesia. Don't matter where our ancestors came from originaly we were all part of a tribe at some point and your body remembers. If this brings tears then let them fall, dont feel shame no matter where you are. Let the tears fall back to earth where our ancestors can feel our love. From a Proud Native man of Canada

Never let your culture die it is amazing.

I was born in the wrong part of the world. Plain and simple ❤️

Im 67yr old white Australian man, I started getting emotional b4 the camera even got to Elder Mauigoa, & then at to see those young men & boy wipe their faces, thats love.

I don’t know what’s happening when i see tha haka I feels something that I can’t explain 💪🏻

I just live watching them all. You feel them through the screen. Imagine being there.

I’m not even from the area and I find myself getting hyped up and emotional. As someone who served I. The military I served with a group of New Zealanders and watched them perform the Haka for comrades who made the ultimate sacrifice. It’s more than just a battle cry.

I am speechless after just recently finding this culture and their ritual of Haka ...It amazing to watch,I do not know why I have never heard of these Maori people until just recently..

Every video I have ever watched of the Haka always leaves me in tears but with a profound sense of peace and comfort. To me it is the ultimate display of love and respect

The raw emotion of the haka just takes my breath away it's so compelling to watch these beautiful people just laying their hearts down for all to see 😍😍😍😍

Incredible respect and love . It gives me the same feeling I get when I hear the churl of the(Scottish Bagpipes) pipes coming to life . It grabs something deep down in your soul .

No paro de llorar....que bonito es ver de regreso a un misionero que fue a compartir el Evangelio de Jesucristo.

Such a lucky man to be so deeply loved by so many people! 🤗😍

Can someone explain to me why I feel so connected to the haka. I cant stop crying Everytime I watch a video. I want to experience this is life

It’s all about respect. We don’t do the haka but we have our own family traditions. We celebrate every opportunity we meet. Our men kiss as a sign of respect to each other. Every member of our family kiss and hug, from the oldest to the youngest. We spend time celebrating our family. This can be anywhere we meet. Family is everything.

As a return missionary's mom, this brought tears. Thank you.

I wish... This is so beautiful. Culture! Never lose it....I beg you!

Wow I'm sat on a bus crying this is so beautiful I so love the haka

The only video which haven't received any dislike.. the only thing I have searched on RU-vid. Haka the traditional war cry of Maori people.. gives me goose bumps every time whenever I see it..

I am Native of North America I am honored to watch these peace welcomes In my culture we give the name of are land Then are people then my elder Then my name It is to show what we have closest to are hearts first because if you think about it This is what gives us life
