HAKA - Toia mai/Ka mate!

This was a very emotional day. The death of our beloved brother, David Talanoa shocked us to the core. From the moment we heard the sad news, ex-members of NGA TANGI A TE IWI and close family & friends gathered to pay tribute to him and on the day of his funeral, well, it was very emotional. In this video, you see up close the raw emotions clearly expressed in the faces of the men and the power, the passion, the love and respect we have for David and his family. Rest in Peace xxx You are eternally in our hearts and thoughts.

Beautiful. A warning to the Heavens that a Warrior is coming home. This is how I wish to go.

The Maori of Aotearoa have the Haka. I'm from Hawaii and we have the Ha'a Koa.
