Kapa Haka And Waltz

For inquiry I had to compare 2 different dances from different cultures.

First I had to pick 2 different dances to compare. I chose Kapa Haka and the Waltz.

Then I had to write down all of the similarities that the dances had. The similarities are it is performed by men and woman, they are both traditional, they wear formal clothing, and it is mostly performed at parties.

Then I had to fin out some differences about the two dances. The differences about Kapa Haka to the waltz is that in Kapa Haka the woman wear flax puipui skirts, they use Poi, they wear feathers in their hair, it is used to identify Maori culture and the woman do wiri.

I learnt that in Kapa Haka the skirts they wear are called Flax Puipui skirts, and in the Waltz they dance with partners.
