Mau Rakau

Yesterday we started our Mau Rakau learning at Hurunui-o-rangi Marae. We had a great time learning self-discipline and self-worth through combat training.

Working out which foot to step forward with. How beautiful is this setting though!

  1. It was awesome - I loved all the ideas and concepts that go with the action itself. We now have a set of ??... two pointed end rakau made out of flax. Can't wait for next week. I want to know the words so that I can remember them. We have plenty more flax rakau if anyone would like some to practice at home.
