OUR CONNECTION TO MAUNGAWHAU
Tahaki Reserve has been a special gathering place for our community for many years. With deep gratitude, we acknowledge Maungawhau and the mana whenua of TΔmaki Makaurau, and weβre honoured to have permission to continue sharing our love of Cuban dance here. We hold great respect for this maunga, for the culture it represents, and for the dedication of those who teach and learn with care.
We are grateful to everyone who joins us and shares that same respect and appreciation for this beautiful place.
