Im maori and im from the land of aotearoa (great white cloud) New Zealand. And if my Tupuna (ancestors) where alive today they would be deeply offended, first of all most these men dont even know what there saying! THIS HAKA COMES FROM Te Rauparaha! Ka mate! Ka mate! Ka ora! Ka ora! I die! I die! I live! I live! Learn what your saying! pronounce the words properly! and respect our culture!!
I am Maori from NZ and I would like to say if not being rude that this tradition of BYU hakas pre match is culturally acceptable but please for the love of god learn the actions and words correctly and most importantly learn what you are saying and why you are saying it. Performed your way loses all its potency through misguided believe that it is a war dance. Ask the New Zealand Embassy to send a warrior to give lessons We would prefer it to this shame upon our language culture and beliefs
@hakaboy6924 hey kid. he's not trying to do it to intimidate you fool. he's doing this to SHOW YOU. im pretty sure kobe bryant doesnt put every drop of his body into his instructional videos. take a chill pill kid.
@NANAface2314 I am critiquing his actions and his words, slow motion or not I don't care and I understand it is instructional, but if you wish to be instructional at least instruct properly. It is a matter of hearsay and songs passed down I am saying to be respectful go to the source of the song. It is a maori song yet sung in this way it says nothing in any language and the actions are no better than a Hawaiian chain hotels greeting. Pretty ethnic nonsense for tourists.
@hakaboy6924 I agree with you!! . . I have said before, If you are going to do an Instructional video, DO IT PROPERLY!! . NGA TIKANGA MAORI is NOT halfby! When our TUTORS instruct, they do it the way they want it to be done. It is done with IHI me te WEHI, then it is broken down, word for word, *translated for non maori speakers* and Each action is hit with Strength and purpose. this poor boy looks scared, and almost Embarrassed!! he needs to pick his balls up and do it Properly!
No need for chill pill read what I said, I know it is instructional and I know he wouldn't be doing that actions full force. But at least learn the words properly his words and pronunciation does not make sense in any language if his school insists on stealing from another culture for the love of god pay it some initial respect
i dont mind the actions, every haka has its varyations its how he pronounces his words that pisses me off, as long as you are a kiwi, by all means take on the haka as apart of you or your team but get the words right first.
Sanfran it is not the hawaiin who do the haka it is the maori. They are the indigineouse people of New Zeland. It was their war dance and it was for psychological warfare to put fear in the enemy. The tongue was stuck out because it was a sign of disgrace. The video was good he slowed it down so you can follow along and the wording helped a lot! :)
@hardrockdkj - How about "You're a disgrace"... If you're going to rag on someone and insult them, at least be intelligent enough to write it correctly... What a buffoon!
@OstlerDev if he is, he's a disgrace. You do NOT teach a Haka of this prestige like that!! a Decent HAKA done properly has IHI me te WEHI . this man has NONE of those. Being a female, I would be able to rip this boy to threads "Teaching" the exact same haka! I am proud of my heritage, and HATE seeing wannabes abuse my language cause they think it's COOL!?! Learn it, understand it, feel it, then Perform it!
@PynkcezZ Appperntly he is american/ maori so fair enough if he's spreading his culture. I've learnt kapa haka as well and when is was first beginning we were taught similar to this. Much easier to pick up the pronunciation and actions when they arnt going 100%
@BigIrishman16 Ka Mate was not written for other cultures to accept or enjoy. As is there enough debate over whether the ABs should be doing it. Te Rauparaha wrote Ka Mate for the people of Ngati Toa. Te Rauparaha was harassed by European settlers over laws that they brought to the land upon settling. So what makes you think that he would want it to be used as entertainment for the people he opposed?
@danthemus - Whether it was written FOR other cultures to accept or enjoy or not, it was. There are great traditions all over the world and they are embraced and imitated (often poorly) by other cultures all over the world. I love watching the Haka performed. While in New Zealand, I was privileged to go to a Maori village and see it performed. I also saw it performed by the All Blacks prior to a match between NZ and South Africa. Both times it gave me chills. I admire and respect the Haka.
@BigIrishman16 It was NOT written for other cultures to enjoy. Te Rauparaha was being chased by the other other 'culture' he knew that existed. The Maori had laws and punishment forced upon them by early European settlers. They were held captive by laws which they had no option but to receive or basically be shot. So he was plagued by this other culture. So why on Earth would he write something that more part of his own culture for the very people who he opposed to enjoy?
@danthemus -Please re-read my comment. I did't at any time say that it was written or created for other cultures to enjoy. Let me rephrase- Te Rauparaha created the Haka for a specific purpose. I understand that. My point was that many people admire the Haka. They admire the tradition and they admire the spirit behind it. I am one of those people. Even though it wasn't created to entertain me, it touches me deeply when I see it and I admire the Haka and love seeing it performed. Others do, too
chur cuzz,nice vid my bro.i dont doubt your right to do the haka.you are clearly of maori descent so that right is immediately yours.but it takes more than a maori last name to become a son of aotearoa.pride,passion and a love for the language, the people and the whenua are what qualifys you for that title.if you have these things...welcome home my bro.hope to see round this beautiful home of ours some day.
Ha BYU are U kidding me you guys suck!!! Utah Utes!! dude we raped you guys this year like 45 to 21 haha And for curiousity is'nt most of BYU mormons?? so why are you guys doing a dance thats Maori???
Ahahahahaha! Even if that's true about him being related to a "Maori chief", I'm certain he'd be rolling over in his grave right now. It's clear to all that he knows nothing about his culture or his heritage. Kia tupato, mena ka hapa koe i te rangatira, he aitua kei te haere! Upokokohua!
Fk that !! what about them bears !!!! cal bears baby !!!! the mountain west has nothing on pac-10, big-12, sec, acc all them big leauges... The best skilled players come from california or from the south.... USC, CAL, OREGON, OREGON STATE..... I give props to them utah schools though..Byu and Utah but I dont know about weber and utah state or sourthen utah...lol..lol... hell them semi-pro teams out in utah could probably beat weber or sourthern U
no, this is an american with direct maori descent, who i have been told has lineage to the creator of this haka which is more than can be said of tongans and samoans trying to teach it at UH when they cant even say the words properly
NO he is not the son of a Maori Chief and no he has no lineage to the creator of this haka. Mahuika, why don't you tell your 'footballers' the truth or is it that you don't even know the truth?
Yeah... I'm kinda sick of seeing you posting that in close to every video on youtube that has "BYU" and "haka" in the title(ok, 2). Yeah, we get it, you won. Congrats, I'll be rooting for you when you play.
I gota say, I think both BYU and the All-Blacks suck at this haka. But the are many Maori that have attended BYU and have obviously bought the haka with them. We can't bag on them for that. But I think that BYU Hawaii should give more respect to their own tangata whenua and allow them to create a dance for them to use. Ka mate ka mate was composed by a man whose life was saved a hairy old man (or woman) and thats it. Nothing more nothing less.
Ermmm? Im a kiwi, i fully understand what you are doing with this, but your vid was pretty half-assed. I hope you play your game with more passion and heart...GO COUGARS?!
atleast byu has a couple maori's in there, theyve got good reason.just cause hawaii's got some tongans and samoans does'nt mean they should be doing a maori HAKA, samoa and tonga have they're own thing
WTF, u know what the haka even is, the haka is a cultural dance for the all blacks. Its disrespectful to do if unless u are new zealand. I don't blame this guy cause hes just teaching us how but the kids that r doig them for intimidation reasons are total jack asses and u should be ashamed
Mahuika is a highborn bloodline in Ngati Porou, I won't deny that but that doesn't mean there are recognised as the highest bloodline. Let me make this clear, there is no PARAMONT Chief ie someone who says jump and everyone asks 'how high' so don't go misleading people. I have to say that you can embarrass yourself, but don't embarrass Te Rauparaha, Ngati Toa, New Zealand but most importantly do not embarrass your own IWI!
I agree that the HAKA should be executed with verve but I think he may have toned it down to make it easier to understand while people are practicing to learn it.
This is Bryce Mahuika, who is of Maori descent. His father, Michael K. Mahuika, was son of Nepia Mahuika who is the chief of the Maori Ngati Porou iwi. Bryce's father was next in line to become chief of his iwi and died just prior to BYU's 2005 season which is when they decided to honor him by doing the Ka Mate Haka before games. In the video he is obviously doing it slow and without passion because it is meant teach teammates who have never done it before.
i am 100% Maori born & bred in New Zealand. My mother is Ngati Porou, her father was Te Whanau-A-Apanui & her mother Te-Aitangi-A-Hauiti. i was raised in Turanga-nui-a-kiwa [heart of the Ngati Porou].
Since WHEN DID WE HAVE A CHEIF?! I think someone's been talking tito [shit]. Sorry to put it bluntly, but if there's a chief i wish someone would have told me :p. maybe i didn't get the email?????
stick to the issue, which for me [& the post that you so obviously read, was in response to], was the statement that Ngati Porou had a CHEIF. We do not.
i am 100% Maori born & bred in New Zealand. My mother is Ngati Porou, her father was Te Whanau-A-Apanui & her mother Te-Aitangi-A-Hauiti. i was raised in Turanga-nui-a-kiwa [heart of the Ngati Porou].

i guess if the people willing to use the New Zealand Maori haka for their sports it maybe ok depending where they get their training from. (NOT THIS IDIOT)
id rather see the haka used by people who have been well educated about the history and mana behind it as opposed to watching a bunch of rip offS who dont know what they are talking about and the words are mispronounced. that kinda shit is disgraceful and insulting to the Maori. THIS GUY HAS NO MANA
Not only is Bryce Muhuika of Maori descent, but his father is a Maori Chief of a tribe in New Zealand that is still functioning..
he asked Coach Mendenhall if he could lead BYU's football team in the Haka to honor his father who passed away while Bryce was at BYU..
As a BYU fan, I am honored that Bryce Muhuika introduced us to the Haka. When I first saw the Haka, I researched it and I now have a great respect for the Maori culture..
Ummm....lame

no, this is an american with direct maori descent, who i have been told has lineage to the creator of this haka which is more than can be said of tongans and samoans trying to teach it at UH when they cant even say the words properly

NO he is not the son of a Maori Chief and no he has no lineage to the creator of this haka. Mahuika, why don't you tell your 'footballers' the truth or is it that you don't even know the truth?

I gota say, I think both BYU and the All-Blacks suck at this haka. But the are many Maori that have attended BYU and have obviously bought the haka with them. We can't bag on them for that. But I think that BYU Hawaii should give more respect to their own tangata whenua and allow them to create a dance for them to use. Ka mate ka mate was composed by a man whose life was saved a hairy old man (or woman) and thats it. Nothing more nothing less.

No reply from my last comment, interesting.
Mahuika is a highborn bloodline in Ngati Porou, I won't deny that but that doesn't mean there are recognised as the highest bloodline. Let me make this clear, there is no PARAMONT Chief ie someone who says jump and everyone asks 'how high' so don't go misleading people. I have to say that you can embarrass yourself, but don't embarrass Te Rauparaha, Ngati Toa, New Zealand but most importantly do not embarrass your own IWI!

I agree that the HAKA should be executed with verve but I think he may have toned it down to make it easier to understand while people are practicing to learn it.

strange, Im from Ngati Porou and I wasn't aware we had a chief........
DLBTrouble 3 years ago 2
This is Bryce Mahuika, who is of Maori descent. His father, Michael K. Mahuika, was son of Nepia Mahuika who is the chief of the Maori Ngati Porou iwi. Bryce's father was next in line to become chief of his iwi and died just prior to BYU's 2005 season which is when they decided to honor him by doing the Ka Mate Haka before games. In the video he is obviously doing it slow and without passion because it is meant teach teammates who have never done it before.

i am 100% Maori born & bred in New Zealand. My mother is Ngati Porou, her father was Te Whanau-A-Apanui & her mother Te-Aitangi-A-Hauiti. i was raised in Turanga-nui-a-kiwa [heart of the Ngati Porou].
Since WHEN DID WE HAVE A CHEIF?! I think someone's been talking tito [shit]. Sorry to put it bluntly, but if there's a chief i wish someone would have told me :p. maybe i didn't get the email?????

your actually not 100% maori there are none left
parekura1977 3 years ago
untrue. people like my mother & father, rare though it maybe - who have "full blood" written on their birth certificates.
plus their country folk [from different rohe] who dare i say it, have not bred outside if you know what i mean.
not that it matters. why did you need to point that out? thats probably a more interesting question...
z8688105 3 years ago
thats probably a more interesting question...
stick to the issue, which for me [& the post that you so obviously read, was in response to], was the statement that Ngati Porou had a CHEIF. We do not.

i guess if the people willing to use the New Zealand Maori haka for their sports it maybe ok depending where they get their training from. (NOT THIS IDIOT)
id rather see the haka used by people who have been well educated about the history and mana behind it as opposed to watching a bunch of rip offS who dont know what they are talking about and the words are mispronounced. that kinda shit is disgraceful and insulting to the Maori. THIS GUY HAS NO MANA

I think we've all seen the real thing.. This is done clearly and slowly so the guys who are learning can learn quicker..
If he did the real thing, they would be guys who are learning would be intimidated and not pick it up so quick..

BYU does the Haka to respect the culture of their student-athletes..
BYU does the Haka to embrace and honor the sacred traditions of the Maori culture and Bryce Muhuika's family..
I see nothing wrong with that.. and I trust that Maori around the world can relate to Bryce Muhuika's desire to honor his father..
Taylor3and3 3 years ago
why does BYU do the Haka ?
because of the guy on this video..
Not only is Bryce Muhuika of Maori descent, but his father is a Maori Chief of a tribe in New Zealand that is still functioning..
he asked Coach Mendenhall if he could lead BYU's football team in the Haka to honor his father who passed away while Bryce was at BYU..
As a BYU fan, I am honored that Bryce Muhuika introduced us to the Haka. When I first saw the Haka, I researched it and I now have a great respect for the Maori culture..
