It has long been a vision of Te Whare Tū Taua o Aotearoa to make the art of Māori weaponry an internationally known body of knowledge, that through the commitment of all our factions around Aotearoa who have taught students and have then branched out overseas is the reason why Tū Hawaiki was formed under the mantle piece of Te Whare Tū Taua o Aotearoa.
To align all factions, in order to convey and solidify the concept of whānaungatanga in which Tū Hawaiki continues to follow.
