As a Māori, it’s important that you came with something to exchange as well so it was good to see you showing them what you know at the end. It makes the meeting more than you coming and taking from the culture and then going back to where you came from.

I’m a Hawaiian and from the island of Kauai ! I noticed out of all Polynesian cultures the Māori and the Māoli Are the most similar I find it interesting that they came from Hawaiiki It sounds like Hawaii there chants sound like ours and there traditional ways are like us down to the behavior too and the tattoos I see designs like in our Kakau and the weapons but I must say the green stone mere is something else it’s amazing we definitely don’t have that in Hawaii I feel like the Māori are definitely our people

saying that by maori you would be regarded as an octopus, weak. all people face atrocities these were committed by your ancestors not you. you are not guilty. and maori values are to never disregard your ancestors or their actions. to maori your ancestors did what would be honourable to any maori they fought to death. to die in battle is considered a noble death no matter the cause. though deception through the treaty of Waitangi not so honourable

Ich erinnere mich, dass in einigen Küstengebieten Chinas und Japans das Paddel als Waffe auch verbreitet ist - manchmal reicht es wohl einfach, dass ein bestimmtes Werkzeug da ist, das sich auch als Waffe verwenden lässt. Obwohl einige von den Taiaha auch wie eine Art von Bokken aussehen. Danke fürs Vorstellen.

Das stimmt, vorallem das Eku aus dem okinawanischen Kobudo ist weithin bekannt. Aber dort ist es immer ein Paddel geblieben. Die Taiaha hat sich zu einer erstaunlich ausgefeilten Waffe entwickelt. Vorallem wenn man bedenkt, dass sie aus Holz ist. Das Blatt ist sehr hart und scharf und soll wohl auch zu Dekapitationen fähig gewesen sein. Die andere Seite der Taiaha ist immer das Gesicht mit der Zunge als Spitze für Stossangriffe. Die vier Augen aus Perlmut symbolisieren die Augen des Ahnen (der Taiaha selbst), der in alle Richtungen blicken kann und den Kämpfer im Kampf unterstützt.

Wondering if there is any footage of this from before the 80's. The eku is a traditional okinawan weapon and fairly unique, it's kata are traditional dating back centuries. The first time I saw anything of taiaha as a traditional weapon / martial arts was the 90's. Of course there was a resurgence of Maori culture and identity from the 80's and 90's. Just curious what video evidence exists of this prior to thst resurgence.

That's what training is for. To build up muscle memory so you don't have to think about it, you just do it. I agree that most things that you learn in a dojo you will never use in an actual fight. But I'll be damned if I let you compare hand to hand combat training with training to use a weapon. Boxing isn't gonna help if someone comes at you with one of these weapons I promise, and I also promise that there is a better way of using them than just baseball swinging the thing around like a crack addict swatting at a bee.

Taiaha was a quick kill martial art, swift hit to temple or collarbone mostly it wasn’t meant for long fights or to look flashy, they can’t exactly give a proper demonstration unless they kill the other person. But it was very affective in real combat, fought against bayonet and guns, and it’s about the foot work also it’s quick swift pouncing type motions

The Moriori originated from Maori settlers from the New Zealand mainland around AD 1500. This was near the time of the shift from the Archaic to Classic Māori culture on the main islands of New Zealand. Oral tradition records multiple waves of migration to the Chatham Islands.Over several centuries these settlers' culture diverged from mainland Māori, developing a distinctive mythology, artistic expression and way of life.
