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!

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.
