Haka - It's an action chant, often described as a "War Dance", but more a chant with hand gestures and foot stamping, originally performed by Warriors before a battle, proclaiming their strength and prowess and generally abusing the opposition.
In modern times, the haka is used in a number of situations. The most famous modern use is its regular performance by New Zealand representative Rugby Union (the All Blacks) and Rugby League teams before commencing a game. It is also performed at certain state functions, such as the welcoming of foreign dignitaries.
In this instance its a celebration of New Zealands national day - Waitangi Day!
Hope this explains!

You have captured the pefect expression to convey the feel of the haka. Looks both agressive and deep in concentration. I would have liked it more if the background was out of focus to direct peoples eye more to this imposing figure. Thank you for sharing.
