TEDxHastingsSt
• August 2019
Kahurangi has once again performed a haka powhiri to welcome TEDxHastingsSt. The Kahurangi Māori Dance Theatre was at the forefront of the renaissance of Māori Performing Arts. Formed in the early 1980’s by Tama Huata and a team who shared his vision to present Māori performing arts in a dynamic and contemporary manner, their touring teams have travelled the world promoting cultural understanding, and inviting audiences to participate in their programmes. Kahurangi is based in Hastings, New Zealand in the territory of the Ngāti Kahungunu tribe on the East Coast of the North Island. Their touring programmes annually incorporate USA, Canada, Asia, India, Australia and New Zealand.
