Episode description

What can we learn about men and menswork from the Haka?

The Haka is a ceremonial dance in Māori culture. It is often seen before sports matches or used as a war dance.

What secrets does this dance hold for teaching men how to live full, whole, playful and connected lives?

I am joined by transformational coach, healer, and retreat facilitator Cyrus Henry on this week's show as we talk about the amazing work that he does in men's retreats in teaching men the Haka, its meaning and how the origins can teach them how to show up as the men they truely want.

🔐 The Key topics are:

🇳🇿 Having the male role model

🇳🇿 The social definition of a man and its impact on young boys

🇳🇿 What is Haka; its essence and meaning to life

🇳🇿 Themes Haka represents

🇳🇿 Competition amongst men

🇳🇿 The playful warrior

🇳🇿 How to express difficult emotions regularly

🇳🇿 Authentic relating

🇳🇿 Intimacy between men amidst perceived social masculinity/Man's need for intimacy

🇳🇿 The importance of community and presence in emotional development
