The Haka is the traditional dance ritual of New Zealand’s Maori people, and it’s known throughout the world for its energetic, loud, often furious characteristics. It’s also often performed during important events in the small country down South, like sports games, which takes us to a little fan of the All Blacks Rugby team who was captured being adorable when filled with pride for his favorite sports team.
Filmed in a bathtub, Baby Ned begins dancing in anticipation of (what was at the time) the upcoming Lions tour of New Zealand.
The little toddler begins by moving his arms before hitting his body and splashing water around. He seems to have memorized the dance better than we ever could have, and while he’s not quite at the level where he is intimidating quite yet, he’ll no doubt be making New Zealanders very proud right now! With so much pride for his country and his team, we can’t wait to see if the little baby will be up there performing the Haka Dance one day himself for a team! It’s obvious that the world needs an extra dose of happiness these days, and this little boy brings national pride as well as joy to everyone that we absolutely can’t resist.
It’s also no wonder that he’s so influenced by the mesmerizing dance performed by these professional sports players. Take a look at the ritual the All Blacks (national team) performed in 2015 before playing the French below.
