Indigenous War Dance and Maori HAKA

October 28th 2008 03:52
Imagine facing this?



The traditional war dances of the Maori and Indigenous people, going head-on into battle.


The Haka:

It is death! It is death!
It is life! It is life!
This is the hairy person Who caused the sun to shine!
Keep abreast! Keep abreast!
The rank! Hold fast!
Into the sun that shines!


"The Confrontation"


This sent shivers down my spine, watching it Live was one of the most memorable things I am ever likely to do.

I have gone face to face with a Haka and it is the most intimidating experiences i have ever felt. The passion, the sound, the echo, the impending death on their breath, wafting inevitably into your very soul...

The end is near, you feel it in your bones. their eyes stare straight through you like spears and burning daggers.
