We have been asked by The International Centre of Martial Arts for UNESCO if we might share a little about this precious taonga of mau rākau and those who practice it, with the world. Accordingly, you are invited to take part in this short survey as part of a research project exploring the cultural and contemporary value of māu rākau in Aotearoa and beyond. Whether you’ve trained in one of the many iwi-based forms, contemporary schools, or community wānanga, whether you are young, old, male or female, your voice matters (even though we ensure that for your privacy it will remain completely anonymous)
This survey will take approximately 5–10 minutes.
We would be very grateful for your insights. Thank you. If you do wish to enter the draw to win a 200NZD supermarket voucher of your choice please do provide your email address at the bottom of the survey.

Kua tonoa mātou e The International Centre of Martial Arts ki UNESCO kia tuari i ētahi kōrero mō tēnei taonga tuku iho, arā, ko te māu rākau, me te hunga e mau ana i tēnei taonga, ki te ao whānui.Nō reira, e tōmina ana i a koe ki te whakakī i tēnei uiuinga poto hei wāhanga o tētahi rangahau e torotoro ana i te mana me te uara o te māu rākau i Aotearoa, ā, puta atu ki tāwāhi. Ahakoa kua ako koe i tētahi āhua o te māu rākau nā tō iwi, i tētahi kura hou, i te hapori rānei; ahakoa he rangatahi, he kaumātua, he tāne, he wahine rānei; he hira tō reo. (Ka noho mōhiohio-kore katoa ngā whakautu mō te noho matatapu o tēnā, o tēnā.)
E 5–10 miniti pea te roa o te uiuinga nei.
E whakawhetai ana mātou i ōu whakaaro. Ka nui te mihi. Ki te hiahia koe ki te tomo ki te whakataetae mō tētahi tākoha 200NZD ki tētahi toa hokomaha o tōu kōwhiringa, tēnā tukuna mai tō wāhitau īmēra ki te pito o te puka uiui.
