Akirata Ou Ura Pau

Here is the video of Rakahanga's Ura Pau (Drum Dance) in the Akirata Ou Festival 2013 held in Auckland, New Zealand. Enjoy :)

Rakahanga has always been my favorite 😁

Love Rakahanga drum dance here! You’re the Champs!

[@psama7917]

So electrifying Rakahanga! We love your moves! Yous are our champs! Congratulations!

Love the performance. Although, there is quite a noticeable difference compared to the Te Maeva Nui in Rarotonga. A very interesting comparison. Distinct sounds and beats and moves associated with specific islands in the Cook Islands are all mashed into one in the Island groups in the Akirata Ou. As long as the culture is alive and the tradition taught correctly, no worries aye :) Great stuff!
