Kapa haka performance

 Today we watched a kapa haka group performance.  

First the kapa haka group did an entrance ceremony. The entrance was a traditional entrance, the entrance they did was when visitors came to visit.  They used a conch to let the people know they are coming in.  

Then they introduced to us a weapon and other tools that are used for dexterity. The tools that were used for dexterity were Ti Rakau and  poi. A poi is a ball connected to a string.

A ti rakau is a stick that is used for wrist and hand flexibility. 

After that the kapa haka group performed a haka. Then once when they’re done the boys kapa haka perform as in response or a way of saying thank you. 

I think the kapa haka group was amazing because they explained everything they did during they're performance. I really enjoyed perfroming infront of them to say thank you.
