Participants are split into teams and taught the haka by professional performers: the stance, the chants, the movements and the intensity behind them. Teams rehearse together and then perform their haka, often facing each other or the whole conference.
Haka Dance: Our Signature High-Energy Team Building Program
The Haka Dance is a Team Builders India signature program and one of the most powerful openers for any conference or offsite. Based on the ancient Maori war dance traditionally performed to intimidate opponents, it fills a room with energy, unity and fearless confidence.
