[@bertiecurlynoodie]

I am Māori and enjoyed seeing your reactions to a small part of my culture. Like yourselves, the Māori are trying to retain to their culture which was affected when the English came. It is important to remember our heritage, there are many traditions and perspectives the Europeans did not think important, but we know otherwise. Congratulations on your beautiful new set, please continue to share your culture with us as it is important that tribal peoples of the world keep the traditions alive.

[@sergeigen1]

here in mexico, we are also going trough this process. and i think one of the positive forces for this, is the internet, as it is a very good platform that anyone can use.

[@worldthroughmyeyes8154]

Well said.

I always thought it was a war dance more than greeting. Learn something new every day!

I like that they showed this Haka against the English. It always feels more intense for some reason (well we probably know the reason). If only Ireland had something similar lol

[@gurkagurkadurka6688]

@@OmniMale From what I have learned, there are many different hakas for many different occasions. Some are greetings. Some are warnings or threats. But, to me, they all look threatening. Whatever the reason, they are all very impressive. Kinda stirs a primal space. A "warrior born" kind of spot. Like when I hear scottish pipes and drums. It makes me want to grab something and start swinging.

Someone please explain to this person that he can just display these items in some fancy art Gallery within USA and people will grab these things up for a lot of money. Look at these people bought Andy warhol's Campbell soup labels then they're going to buy something beautiful like this. I know a lot of people from South American culture that's so their designs in galleries within USA for lots of money. Not only would there be an opportunity to sell these things but more importantly it would bring attention to the culture. Everybody here in this comment section knows this stuff would sell like freaking crazy. I only wish this was an infomercial or was on QVC right now. I want my percentage hahaha

[@miriamepage6991]

@@choice12ozborne You can find these goods in specialized stores and it tends to be amazingly cheap (a lot more expensive than it is in their country but relatively cheap by US standards).

I never knew there was a wedding haka! I am going to look it up now!

[@revangerang]

I came here to mention the wedding haka too! There's another moving one with a whole high school performing a haka in memory of their teacher who passed away. Honestly there's so many great videos. One that I personally love a lot is from the Standing Rock protests, when some Maori people came from the other side of the world and performed a haka in the snowy Dakota landscape in support of their indigenous brothers and sisters.

[@technovisionz]

@@revangerang This one literally brought me to tears. I pray that the embers are still burning within the hearts of all who stood. We need them now more than ever.

[@mazzaone168]

Traditionally the Haka is a war dance. However, it is also used to celebrate weddings, birthdays and a life lost. Your are completely right that to perform it for visitors is a sign of respect and I’m glad that you understood that. Props bro you’re doing an amazing job spreading cultural enlightenment. Loved that old guy with the beard sooo wize

[@flydiiqqiidy]

As a Maori, thank you for sharing my culture. We are a proud people and we welcome those who bring peace. Your research was short and sweet, but I also enjoyed the feedback by the Kaumatua (elders). Good content, keep it up.

[@colesuqs]

Do you mind if I ask you a question, how do they all know what the choreography is? I've watched a few of the Haka videos on KZbin and the dance and words always seem different, but everyone knows it! Do they practice beforehand or is it a group of dances you learn as children? Thank you for taking the time to answer, I think it's one of the most beautiful pieces of any culture I've ever witnessed!!

[@Lekrown]

@@colesuqs If You're Maori then 9 times out of 10 you learnt the Haka as a kid which is usually the Haka from your respected area and tribe in new Zealand, For example, My iwi (tribe) is Ngati Porou, we're the light skin, colored eyed maori from the east and we have Haka exclusive to our Tribe and others exclusively for theirs. then there are universal Haka for all people of all tribes and nations. but the original haka for the main iwi of new zealand (which there are a few) dates back to the old times long before the white men invaded our land.

I love Haka dance so much. If I'm really stressed about something I just listen these warrior chants. Its so tribal. Much love from Lapland Finland

[@kathleenmayhorne3183]

Not greeting "the Haka" is a war dance, meant to be intimidating. The NZ people live in houses, this is the traditional dress, not worn everyday, for ceremonies. Every NZ resident learns the Haka, they have other dances. There is another dance for greeting.

[@joeday4293]

"But without knowing all this, I would have wet my pants." 😆 Me too, Mr. Muharam, me too. As an American, I think it would be fascinating to show them some dances from our Native American tribes. There are large gatherings known as powwows, where natives of various tribes perform their ceremonial dances. Lots of great videos of those. Those tribal ceramics are incredible! I must go back and watch the video featuring them, and show it to my wife. She is a sculptor and potter, and in fact, I'm joining her after I leave work at a party where she and other artists will be firing their work in a kiln. Perhaps she needs one of these as a Christmas gift?

[@TRYBALS]

Sure, we showed these ceramics in detail in last video. I'll also feature a video on how it's made from start to finish on our other channel (TRYBALS INSIDERr)

[@salmonandsoup]

@@TRYBALS Just be sure to not take videos from tribes and events that don't appreciate being filmed! IIRC, some of the dances and traditions are closed and not meant to be shared. Obviously there are hundreds of tribes of indigenous people in America, so there most definitely are some that are alright with it, but please make sure that the videos filmed were taken with permission by the dancers and the event!

[@clumsiii]

@@TRYBALS there are many styles of native american dancing across many regions. There is a women's style called Jingle Dancing - and the dresses are so wonderful. Covered in small bells. Every step is music

Other countrys from polinesia like Samoans , Tonga and Fiji do have their own type of haka too.

Big hug from Argentina to all the Trybals family.

I dont know why people romantisize this aggressive dance. These people are statistically very violent and aggressive in modern society and were that way before the English came. In tribal wars all the time and practicing cannibalism and slavery if their own people

[@cheekyb71]

Ahhh beautiful, as a New Zealander I think you've done a wonderful job of looking at this tradition. The only thing I'd say is that those two haka in particular are more like challenges or intimidation, than the haka used for greeting or celebrating important people or events.

[@brigidtheirish]

And being open minded while still loving their own culture! Here in America, a lot of people act as you can't do both. Or act as if all other cultures are to be appreciated except those of Northern and Western Europeans. Some even act as if people from those places don't *have* cultures. It's sad because we're losing touch with our history.

[@roberthotter2757]

I totally agree with you. First you have to know, understand and love your own culture. Then you can understand why other people love their culture. This world is so beautiful and diverse, I cannot get enough of travel. For me it is a wonderful world and a beautiful gift of a loving God. ❤

[@elettewheeler7893]

The Haka is traditionally a challenge, to determine if someone is friend or foe. It is used for visitors and in many contexts. When a dignitary arrives at a meeting place, afeather is put down for the visitor to pick up, while the warrior keeps a close eye on them. It is quite intimidating. The men are not acting, they embody the role completely.

[@splintreacts]

I am an Indigenous Australian and I love this channel ❤

[@jeanielaborde6068]

I am from Louisiana USA I have been enjoying watching you guys. I’m so excited to see people from different cultures communicate with respect to others. The culture I am from is called Louisiana Cajun. We are people whose ancestors came from France. From France they went to Canada. When the British won Canada from the French the people who are French in Canada moved to Louisiana. I would love to send you guys true videos of who we are as a people. If interested please let me know. I truly love what you are doing. God bless my friends!

[@manna6618]

As an Australian...who lives right next door to New Zealand...we LOVE the Haka! Our sports teams often face each other and the New Zealanders always perform the Haka before battle... and us Aussies absolutely love it! They are our enemies on the sports field, but our brothers in our hearts. If ANYONE was to touch our Maori brothers we would gladly give our lives defending them. There is a competitive hatred between us but make no mistake, New Zealand is our brother and we have always, and will always, be together against all invaders. No one has more spiritual respect for the Maori than a skip...much love to our warrior brothers across the ditch. X

[@micheinnz]

Exactly as you say, it's a sibling relationship. We can give each other shit, but anybody else tries it and we close ranks!

[@Mercadian]

I don't watch sports but I remember there was a video that showed the Maori performing a haka, and I'm not sure which nation of indigenous Australians met them on the field and did a spear dance in response (or it was the spears first and the haka second), followed by them exchanging gifts before the teams went on the field. I really wish more traditional aboriginal culture would be showcased here in Australia too. Here in Melbourne we have the Djirri Djirri dancers of the Wurundjeri peoples performing fairly often, and it's always a treat to see them dance and sing outside the State Library.

[@amararose3029]

[@calummcrae7735]

I can't recall the exact name of it, but I lived in New Zealand for about two years and was told there were different types of haka's. The one they use in rugby has a specific meaning which is something similar to 'I respect you but I am going to fight you'.

[@TRYBALS]

Abdul is always so good at reading expressions. He doesn't talk much so I have to ask for his opinions most of the times because I can't miss his accurate translation of the human facial expressions.

[@emanuelmartinez7267]

Yeah like most Hakas are a respectful challenge, even their war ones basically mean: " I pray you are a worthy and skilled opponent so the gods will smile when I spill your blood" . There's also a popular video of a wedding haka where the brides family are challenging her husband while giving him their approval, my friend translated it to something like "son what are you afraid of? All you need to succeed is already inside you so go forth and challenge death". It's an interesting culture

[@mikhaildas]

i think the ones that the All blacks do are called "Kamate, Kamate" and the one from 2005 that they do in special ocasions called "Kapa O Pango"

[@calummcrae7735]

@@mikhaildas kamate, kamate, thats the one

[@micheinnz]

The All Blacks do one of two different haka depending on the occasion. The most common one is Te Raupara's haka "Ka mate", the first one shown in this video. That's used for most international matches (they're called tests, don't ask me, I don't know). Te Rauparaha was a chief of the Ngati Toa people. He was being chased by some men who wanted to kill him, and a woman hid him in a pit used for storing kūmara (sweet potatoes). After they were gone he did this haka to celebrate the fact that he was still alive. Really important games like tournament finals and when they're playing overseas get the second one -- Kapa o Pango "Line of Black".This haka was composed specifically for the All Blacks and is an expression of their strength and readiness for the game. That said, sometimes they'll decide to do one or the other for reasons known only to them. Sometimes it's a surprise.

[@TRYBALS]

Thank you, yeah the chairs were most expensive from everything we have it there but it also comes with a two seater sofa too and we've ordered another set of chairs and stools which they'll make from wheat straws. It's also expensive as they craft it by hand and could take up to 10 days to make two chairs, two stools and a table. Besides, the ceramic work was also expensive but I'm happy as all of those things are crafted by hand by artisans. Oh, do you see the Priest King statue I put there? I'm sure you already know that I sculpted that myself in 2017 😃 I'm almost broke now lol and I've got to get more cameras too, the one focusing on the reactor is not mine and I have to return it soon. I feel happy to be in front of you guys and this will create a positive impression on people watching the videos I believe. I come from the same culture and background. About Parvati, I tried my bests each time to give her a feeling that it's ok to be yourself, to feel as you want, everything. I tried my very bests, that's all I could say.

[@pheart2381]

Set looks fantastic.

[@pamsing4601]

I love the set...and the captions...and seeing our host...and Maori Haka 😍

[@mylifeisrushhour2]

So cool to see the man behind the camera! This channel is amazing and I love seeing the guests react to different cultures. Is there a chance we could see commentary from these reactors on their own traditions like Ho Jamalo?

[@elisemiller13]

After giving a healing session today, I came and watched this video. may you all be blessed, you men of peace ~ May many who need to hear, hear your message of peace and respect for everyone's native culture around the world!

[@gloriatyller4554]

I enjoyed your videos very much before the studio change. Now it is an experience! So beautiful! Today’s view of the Maori dance from the Tribal perspectives was most enlightening. Thank you!

[@CreativeSteve69]

I''m really loving the new studio setup. I am loving the astethics and colors. I especially enjoyed having the host be in the spotlight with them. it's really lovely seeing their perspectives in different videos and sharing their wisdom with us. Loving the new studio though as well as the cultural items ya got placed. I have been enjoying it a lot and it looks very nice and roomy. Been great fun learning about your guy's culture and your viewpoints since I discovered you guys couple years ago. Keep it up. :)

The new set is beautiful 😍 There is a beautiful video on KZbin of a Haka dance performed at a wedding ceremony in New Zealand that also shows the beauty & strength of this dance.

This is such a great and shining example of cross cultural communication! I am from the United States and the care and attention to details and understanding from the host to the elders about the traditions of others is so very well done. You have my subscription to your channel for sure!

[@sarahallegra6239]

Love the new studio setup! It’s so beautiful and engaging! I’d want to walk around it and look at everything. This was so cool! I love seeing the Haka performed and I can only hope to see it in person someday. I’m glad they were able to appreciate it!

I LOVE the new setup! This feels so much more comfortable for everyone, and I love seeing the artwork and both of your outfits. I am continuously impressed by this channel, it's purpose, and everyone on it. Thank you so much for all of your hard work. This is what the internet was made for. Sending love from Colorado

[@Jemppu]

Oh, a new setup from since I last visited. I *love* seeing the interviewer themself too :) Makes things feel so much more intimate, and less clinical. Thank you for this awesome channel, all of you involved

[@bazzerker35s]

The Rock is Samoan and he has relatives in the WWE today, who has the same tribal tattoo who are in the same culture as him. WWE Jimmy and Jey Uso did their Haka Dance many years ago as their entrance on WWE and it was awesome way to show their culture that way. You can check out videos on KZbin of Jimmy and Jey Uso's Haka Dance at the live event's they had doing that.

[@TRYBALS]

I used to be a huge WWE fan lol and that's where I discovered most of my favorite bands too before we had the internet here lol. Yeah, might come as a surprise but WWE is very much popular here.

[@bazzerker35s]

@@TRYBALS WWE is popular everywhere in the world, they even try having WWE live events in countries they never been before.

[@TRYBALS]

Well, they haven't been to Pakistan ever 😃

[@bazzerker35s]

@@TRYBALS The only closest WWE has been from Pakistan was India when they have live events there. Because I have no idea how often WWE comes to foreign countries. All I know is that they travel a lot to different countries around the world.

[@TheAccidentalViking]

There is a different tradition for welcoming guests onto the Marae, where a woman sings you in called a A pōwhiri. It is a Māori welcoming ceremony, involving whaikōrero (formal speech) , waiata (singing) and kai (food). The Haka, is a challenge, not a welcome.

[@spaghetti1641]

A haka can also be part of a powhiri. My marae and greater iwi have specific ones depending on who is visiting (same iwi or different). Neither of these were on a marae. There are also multiple waita and speakers at a powhiri. Yes the karanga sung by the most important woman and then received by the other groups most important woman. The waita come later. There is like 6-9 steps to a powhiri and haka can be part of it.

[@TheAccidentalViking]

@@spaghetti1641 I remember them being rather long.

[@Family__Guy_]

Please don’t get rid of these two men. I like watching them the most and their reactions.

[@bryanjames4919]

The Haka can be used for many reasons, not just a greeting but in preparation for war, but the one for me it can be used as a sign of respect, as in a funeral of a much respected person, each Haka has meaning

[@fey9915]

It's not a greeting, it's a traditional war dance before the battle. Love the new studio!

[@spaghetti1641]

Eh depends on the occasions. There are a lot of different types of haka. The one you do at a powhiri (greeting ceromony) is different to a sports field/competition, celebration or a funeral. Haka is a hroad term. Would be great if waita performances (songs) could be given the same level of recognition internationally. But then would they be reduced to just 'battle cries'

[@Swrdfshtrmbns]

This new studio looks great. One thing I have not seen on any of these reaction channels is a reaction to some kind of documentary video about the participants’ own country or region history. I think that would be quite interesting.

[@andiwindsparrow]

Thank you for showing your culture. And thank you for exploring other cultures too. I learned about the haka dance today because of this.

[@jongorton7026]

There is also a Haka done by high school boys who are honouring a retiring teacher, absolutely amazing to watch!
