Haka 'Ka Mate' performed by Ngāti Toa 

I never get tired of seeing this performed. It's so spiritual. I love it. Would love to visit New Zealand one day.

This performance made me swell with pride - and I'm a Surinamese Dutch woman from the other side of the world! Go figure! Keep embracing your culture, my Maori brothers and sisters!!

New Zealand is a nation I must visit before departing this sinful world and I’ll be visiting the beautiful nation just to enjoy the performance.

I'm a Proud Torres Strait Islander first nations man of Australia. Love and Respect for all of our Indigenous cultures of the world 🌏🌎🌍 The Haka is very powerful 💙

i am a huge fan of your culture. can't wait to be the first time in NZ. greets from germany

As far as I know, I have no Maori blood. Yet, I feel this stirring within me. The call to battle.

the chief that made this Haka was from this tribe, Ngati Toa, you can tell..never seen Ka mate performed this well..

I'm very happy to have known the New Zealand - regards from Brazil.

Don't know about anyone else but every time I hear this i feel it in my spirit i feel so connected to this even though I am not from New Zealand

I am six straight line to the hairy man Te Wharerangi in the haka Ka Mate Ka Mate, who not only saves Te Rauparaha's life, but eventually pays for this act with his own life ten years later and is eaten when Maru and their Allies return to Rotoaira in a revenge attack on Motu-a-puhi. I am a survivor of the Motu-a-puhi massacre. What makes this event special to us the whanau of Te Wharerangi, is that he lay down his life for his enemy as opposed to for his friend. It is a shame that the focus has been on the composer of the haka, and not on the actual event. On my marae at Otukou, this korero is carved into the poutokomanwa for everyone to see and know. If Te Wharerangi doesn't save his enemy Te Rauparaha, he dies. A little respect for the hairy man and his whanau would be nice.

I am such a fan of the haka, no matter the origin or purpose. I’m just an average white guy in the USA, so it might seem odd. However, I am old enough to remember and miss the days of respect and honor when you could trust a man’s handshake or his word. I love that the haka is full of respect and honor and is diligently handed down the generations so that the youth understand.

Proud to be from Ngati Toa. Chur

Couldn't have been opened right without this performance. Beautiful

It gives me power to fight my inner demons. Thanks , My Kiwi Friends ❤

I don't know much and am about as far from Maori as can be, but I just love the Ka Mate haka. Learning the story it tells has just made it more fascinating to me. The intensity and cultural pride shown during a haka just pulls me in and makes me want to join in.

The full version of ka mate. Nice. This haka was performed to my chief Te Wharerangi Chief of subtribe Ngati Hikairo . From Toa chief Te Rauparaha. My chief helped Terauparaha. Who was being chased by Te kooti a warrior, out to kill him. My chief hid him below his wife. In a potato pit. Te kooti came through but was told he wasn't there. He knew he was there but didn't know where. Woman were never touched by the warriors in those days. Te kooti carried on. But later found out that my chief helped terauparaha. And as a punishment, at night. Our whole subtribe was slaughtered all but the chiefs son and daughter who were sent away, as he knew what was going to happen. And our chiefs body eaten. Head taken as a trophy. Before the mass deaths toa chief composed this haka to my chief as a thanks for saving my life.. our paramount tribe Tuwharetoa knew what had happened. A few nights later. Te kooti and his men where slaughtered to death by our big chiefs brother.

so this is how ka Mate is meant to be done.

I'm so sad that we (Americans) don't have such a beautiful culture. This gives me chills every time.

Did anyone see the little girl inside the battle cry...the little boy beside her was ready for battle along with the men....it’s brotherhood....be water 🌊

Hi people I am from the country of Brazil and I think this HAKA dance to New Zealand Culture is very beautiful, I would like to have a day of participation I am proud of you hug John Silva

Best haka I’ve ever seen. This was real business right here

Dedicated to Te Wharerangi and Te Rangikoaea who save Te Rauparaha's life. Te Wharerangi is killed ten years later as a result, by those that sought Te Rauparaha. A massacre on Motu-a-puhi on Rotoaira. This is the real korero also carved in the poutokomanawa of Okahukura at Otukou. I am a direct descendant residing on Tongariro.

How good is this. Absolutely outstanding. Thank you so much for sharing.

Amazing i want to learn this ritual 💗👌

Very intense and spiritual Love from Canada

Maori culture is amazing I like how they do the haka it's so lovely to watch 💜🇬🇧

Kikiki! Kakaka! Kauana kei waniwania taku tara kei tarawahia, kei te rua i te kerokero! He pounga rahui te uira ka rarapa ketekete kau ana To peru kairiri mau au e koro e! Hi! Ha! - Ka wehi au ka matakana, ko wai te tangata kia rere ure tirohanga ngā rua rerarera ngā rua kuri kakanui i raro! Aha ha! Let your valor rise! Let your valor rage! We'll ward off these haunting hands while protecting our wives and children! For thee, I defy the lightning bolts of hell while my enemies stand there in confusion! O God - to think I would tremble to a pack of wolves seeing fear, or running away, because they would surely fall in the pit of shame as food for the hounds who chow down in delight! Oh, what in the name…? Ka mate, ka mate! ka ora! ka ora! Ka mate! ka mate! ka ora! ka ora! Tēnei te tangata pūhuruhuru Nāna nei i tiki mai whakawhiti te rā Ā, upane! ka upane! Ā, upane, ka upane, whiti te ra! 'Tis death! 'tis death! (or: I may die) 'Tis life! 'tis life! (or: I may live) 'Tis death! 'tis death! 'Tis life! 'tis life! This is the hairy man Who summons the sun and makes it shine A step upward, another step upward! A step upward, another... the Sun shines!

MAN. Do they do the haka justice, considering the haka is from the Ngati Tao tribe, you can tell it is in their blood ❤️❤️

I want to learn the Haka badly . There are I believe 5 different types

God help anyone who dares invade New Zealand!

The passion so powerful

he mihi rangatira ki a ngati toa! kapa tu ana te ngakau te mataki i a koutou e mau nei ki nga taonga a kui ma a koro ma. whiti te ra!

Love the energy in this dance

omg this was glorious

Aren't Hakas actually pretty rarely used as war chants and more often just general ceremonial dances?

Just wondering if anyone understands the gestures of the Haka. If you were only armed with hand to hand weapons, and warriors came up to you with these faces and hand movements, would you not be fucking terrified? Yes, you would.

I´m from France. When is the "Zee buz. Do chock. Do kamma wahnche thargoid" festival?

Wow jakie emocje 👌💪

Watch the Tuwharetoa docos on RU-vid. 3x shorts. Explained by a well known Maori family in the tribe. In terms of ancestral knowledge.

This haka definitely belongs to you after watching that

Who saved Te Rauparaha's life? Te Wharerangi, the hairy man from Rotoaira, and he was killed for it by those that sought to kill Te Rauparaha ten years later. I am a direct descendant of Te Wharerangi and this korero is recorded on the Poutokomanawa at Otukou marae. You people never mention our koro, the real hero of this event. Most of my whanau on Motu-a-puhi were killed as a result of what Te Wharerangi did. Your koro sat beneath the genitals of my kuia Te Rangikoaea while Te Wharerangi spoke to Te Rauparaha's many enemy that included Tuwharetoa. You people need to get your korero right and do your tamariki a favour. Remember, Te Rauparaha and Te Wharerangi were enemies and not friends. Our Poutokomanawa on Okahukura doesn't dream.

The Fredrick II Era Prussian army, Hegemon of the Army discipline and Structure The Napoleonic Era French Army, First Hegemon of the Modern Era Stratagem The Raj-era Redcoats, Hegemon of the wooden sea The Wehrmacht: Hegemon of surprise New Zealand: Hegemon of PURE TESTOSTERONE

My name is Hona. My mothers name is Parerohi, the eldest of Te Wharerangi and Te Porete's 8 children. Te Wharerangi is the only son of Te Raroa. His mother is Parerohi the daughter of Matuahu, the son of the hairy man Te Wharerangi. Ten years after this event, Te Wharerangi and his people are murdered by those that sort to kill Te Rauparaha on Motu a puhi. My koro and your koro were enemies not friends. Te Heu Heu was the friend and relation to your koro. It is he that sends your koro to my people. My people died at the end of a gun. This korero is recorded on the poutokomanawa on Okahukura. I carry this korero on behalf of my people and not Tuwharetoa. Greater love has no man' than he lay down his life for a friend. My koro lay down his life for his enemy. This is the universal taonga. Regards Hona.
