Of Ngāti Rereahu, Ngāti Rākei & Ngāti Waikorara, growing up immersed in kapa haka and sharing haka internationally with Māmā
Mihirangi & the Mareikura, Mihirangi has witnessed firsthand the transformative power of haka for women across the world. With over 30 years of
experience touring internationally and working alongside Indigenous communities, she brings a deep cultural understanding and an inclusive approach that welcomes all
women, whether they are reconnecting with their lineage, seeking personal empowerment, or simply wanting to experience the immense energy of haka.
“This haka is about challenge, the challenge of self, of belief systems, and of society. It is a space to stand in our truth, express our power, and move with intention. Hine Taketake is a
haka for wāhine to reclaim their voices and embody their strength, together.” Māmā Mihirangi
