16 reactions · 3 comments | The “dance for strong men” depends on the culture: in Hawaii, it’s the Ha’a Koa (“Dance of the Warrior”) or male hula, while the most well-known Polynesian war dance is the Haka from New Zealand. Other Polynesian examples include the Samoan Siva Tau (often translated as a war dance) and the Tongan Kailao. And they all take great deals of practice and strength. #haka #hula #wardance #culture #hawaii #new_zealand | Cliff Julseth | Facebook
