Theo Baker-Jones takes our group through a fascinating class on Mau Rakau. Mau Rākau, meaning "to bear a weapon", is a martial art based on traditional Māori weapons, and was used in warfare for hundreds of years. In this clip he talks about why setting rules for sparring is so important and answers general questions from the group about the art.
