Mau Rākau Stances / Ahai - Part 2

Kia ora e te iwi,

Welcome back to our channel. For those that are new here, we Caleb and Jackie run a small Māori pakihi (business) here in Tāmaki Makaurau (Auckland) New Zealand. We create handmade taonga that is unique to our culture here in Aotearoa.

Ngā mihi nui to everyone who took the time to watch part 1 of this mau rākau ahai / stances series. We loved your comments, feedback and hope you had the opportunity to try this at home. In this video, we'll be moving on and learning 5 new ahai to add to your kete of knowledge.

The ahai you will learn today:
Mango pare
Mango pae
Mango tau
Mango tū
Te tohu ā tū

Have a go e te iwi and let us know in the comments what you think!! If you try this at home, please tag us on Instagram @calebtekotiri. We love seeing your content and it reallhy inspires us to keep going.

A little disclaimer, everything that Caleb teaches is purely the stances or ahai that he has adpoted and practices frequently. If you visit different wānanga, these may be called different names or be a new stance all together. These videos are simply from our experience and help to give you a good foundation for your mau rākau journey.

Ngā mihi,
Caleb & Jackie
