Imagine a culture that uses the whole body to communicate, to build an energy known as he he, that unites emotionally, physically and spiritually by expressing passion, strength and determination. The Maori culture does just that through Haka, which means dance. The Maori people were the first inhabitants of Altea roa. We know all tea roa by the commonly known name New Zealand. Otro means long white cloud in the Maori language, it describes what the Maori settlers, the first permanent settlers, saw from a distance nearly 800 years ago.
