Maori Warrior Dance
Maori Warrior Dance
This is an excerpt from the Maori – Dances of Life. For nearly 50,000 years, dances and songs have been an expression of Pacific Islanders' origins, their journeys, their struggles - their very existence. Watch the Maoris carry on the tradition of dance (and tatoos).
The Maori people arrived in New Zealand by canoe
about 1200 years ago. They believe they are guardians of the land.
