Dance Matters: Rhythm Stick Dance

$0.00

Tītī tōrea is a traditional Māori stick game from New Zealand. It is both a game and a cultural practice used to develop hand-eye coordination, dexterity, and teamwork. The game involves the use of short wooden sticks, called tītī or tī rākau, which participants rhythmically pass, throw, or tap in time with traditional chants or songs.
