News and production crews at Māori Television took on the 'Wairua Challenge' to end NZ Music Month on a high note.
The challenge involves bombing someone on a video by dancing to Maimoa Music's latest single 'Wairua'.

Maimoa Music member Tawaroa Kawana said, “Māori Television giving the #wairuachallenge a go."
Kawana has also laid a challnege to any other followers of the song to “Show us what you got” and film a Wairua Challenge too.
The 12 member group composed ‘Wairua’ in April this year and so far the music video to the song has reached more than 650,000 views on Facebook.
