And that’s how you WIN! Whuuuu! Te Kahu Ariki dominated at the Aussie Kapa Haka Competition last weekend and we’re here to recap it all!

This week we’re joined on the couch by Otene Hopa, kaitātaki of Hātea, who has long been involved in kapa haka in Ahitereiria. Together, we break down the results, share our thoughts and talk about the growth of kapa haka in Australia over the last few years because it has been MASSIVE. Sending a BIG mihi to all of the kapa who did their thing over the weekend!

We also preview ASB Polyfest – Te Paparewa Māori, happening this week. We can’t wait to see all of our rangatahi take the stage over four days of performances.

Āpōpō, we recap Te Tai Tokerau Regionals so make sure you’re back here, at 8pm.

E te whānau, LIKE, COMMENT & SUBSCRIBE for more Haka Yarns.

Ngā mihi nui ki a Te Māngai Pāho i ēnei pūtea tautoko.
