Our Values EMPOWER Empowered men, empower men and we want to remind all men that they already have within them the power to be greater than what they think they are. INTEGRITY We bring honesty and strong moral principles to all our dealings. Our word is our action. EQUITY You’re among friends and we will always strive to be fair and impartial. Our Haka The Haka is a powerful form of communication, a full body expression that breaks the barriers of silence. Our history wasn’t written, instead recorded through song and dance. It interconnects generations, defines hierarchy, asserts boundaries all while embracing and engaging. It’s a life force beyond any other. “The stigma of silence is what it was tied to. They say that silence is the killer of men at the moment, so the expression and communication with haka shatters silence. It’s a full body expression, it’s communication, another form of it. That’s why I chose Haka to express it today” Leon Ruri on the ANZAC Day Haka for Life
