Florida, the sunshine state, is a place where oranges aren't just an afternoon snack, but an ambiance of life. It's a place where alligators seem like grumpy old neighbors, sunsets are a daily invitation to a party, and white sandy beaches act like soft carpets welcoming the waves. In this bright corner of America, the kids are as lively and full of energy as a troop of monkeys on a sugar rush. They're not just running around playing tag, but they're also busy twisting, turning, kicking and hopping in Taekwondo uniforms. Meet our hero, Timmy "Turtleflip" Turner, a Taekwondo kid with a black belt and a green shell. Sure, he's not really a turtle, but his ability to flip and spin like one has earned him this quirky nickname. Imagine a turtle flipping smoothly in the air (while maintaining its dignity), that's our Timmy. He doesn’t simply "do" Taekwondo; he dances it, like a flamingo on a hot Florida beach. Timmy and his band of Taekwondo tornadoes aren't your average kids. They're like a batch of freshly squeezed Florida orange juice: punchy, zesty, and packed full of sunshine energy. They don't just break boards; they smash through Monday blues, homework troubles, and the evil Doctor Bedtime. But don't be fooled, it's not all high kicks and turtle flips. Occasionally they get their kicks mixed up with their chicken nuggets during lunch break, resulting in an interesting, albeit confusing, "food-fight" dance! So, welcome to Florida, where the gators are grumpy, the sun is a permanent guest, and the kids are busy saving the world, one Taekwondo kick at a time!

Nestled in 178 acres of lush woodland is a serene escape from the city, a place fondly known as Camp Swamp. This overnight Christian camp, located just two hours east of bustling Atlanta, has been serving as a peaceful retreat since 1992. We like to think of it as our own "little slice of heaven," offering a respite from the daily hustle and bustle, and inviting people to reconnect with nature and their spirituality. Our primary offering is a week-long summer camp, but we've expanded over the years to include more than just summer fun. As part of our mission to support families and churches, we now also host three family camps throughout the year, as well as four parent/child retreats. These events offer a chance for families to bond, parents to connect with their children, and individuals to grow in their faith. Moreover, our facilities are not exclusive to our organized events. Camp Swamp also offers rentals to schools, churches, universities, sports teams, and even business groups. Whether you're planning a camp, a retreat, or a team-building excursion, our serene setting and well-equipped facilities provide the ideal backdrop for an unforgettable experience.
Tae-Kwon Do is a Korean-originated martial art that literally translates to “the way of the hand and foot.” It has become extremely popular in the last few decades, with practitioners in more than 200 countries. At Fishhawk TKD, founded in April 2014 by Sabunim David Lyles, a 6th Degree Black Belt and a Lieutenant in the U.S. Army, class sizes have steadily grown from two to over forty. The class has even been visited by Grandmaster Hwang, the founder of UITF. Fishhawk TKD is a great way to get fit, learn self-defense, and practice a unique form of martial arts.
