I don't know what it is, but I'm addicted to the Haka....don't know what the Haka is? It a traditional group dance, very rhytmic, with very loud shouting and menacing moves tpically done by the Maori of New Zealand. It's a battle "dance" that is typically used to intimidate your opponent and bring them to submission.
It's come into popular culture lately on the rugby circuit, specifically the New Zealand All Blacks who perform it before their games. I don't know what it is about the Haka that entrances me, is it the menacing faces, the musucular men or the shouting in a language that I don't understand? Regardless, it gets me all worked up, maybe it'll do the same for you.
