What have I been doing in Kapa Haka recently? Let me think...

HEY EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
How is everyone this mental looking week? I am back for another blog post so let's get started.

Kapa Haka is a big thing this term and I'm cringing on the inside when I mess up pronunciation during a song or the words to the toia mai haka that's going on at the moment. I cringe so hard. But on with the show I s'pose. My participation towards Kapa Haka is a big role that I have to play as I am a leader.

Short explanation is the teachers decided to let some of the students lead the Kapa Haka for this year and if all goes well then they will continue letting students lead the other students. The problem is with some of the other students is they always hang around in groups rather than in their allocated lines, and that's mostly in the girls when they're at the back behind the boys. I'm not pulling any names out of the hat but I'm watching you guys there from my little perch. And don't talk in between breaks either it just slows down the progress and takes longer to get through one session. Explanation turned rant over.

Question time:
What have you found easy?
I found a multitude of things easy. Mostly showing and explaining the moves. I mean its easy but I think it a challenge to listen to the music, sing, and dance at the same time so its sorta become second nature to me. Next!

What is difficult for you?
Speaking Maori words rather quickly with the correct pronunciation. It's almost like a tongue twister. Tongue twisters are fun to say but when its in another language then it gets harder. I think I'll do a whole lot of Maori words in rapid succession in my own time.

How could you improve your performance?
Well. I guess I could practice in my own time to make sure that I nail every word and move that I possibly can. I guess?

Well with that done and dusted that should conclude my blog post for the week. Well until next time
GOODBYYYYEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why not a ying yang?
