Deep in the heart of the great state of Texas, where the cowboys roam and the barbecues sizzle, there exists a group of extraordinary kids who partake in an ancient martial art known as Kobudo. Now, you may be thinking, "Wait a minute! I thought Texas was all about cow roping and horse riding?" Well, my friend, Texas is as much a melting pot of cultures as it is a proud stew pot of chili con carne! Our story revolves around Samson Saguaro, a ten-gallon hat-wearing armadillo, who is as Texan as a prickly pear cactus. Samson, however, is no ordinary armadillo. Instead of spending his days rolling into a ball at the slightest scare, he's mastered the art of Kobudo, a form of martial arts that originated from the distant Okinawa islands of Japan. Every day, Samson and a gang of kids from all over Texas gather at a place they fondly call "The Dojo in the Desert". Under the scorching Texan sun, these karate kids, armed with traditional Okinawan weapons like the bo staff, nunchaku, and sai, train in Kobudo. It's an unusual scene, but boy, do they love it! Now these kids may not be able to wrangle up a wild bronco, but they sure can twirl a mean set of nunchaku. And instead of cowboy boots, they don a pair of zori sandals. But don't let those sandals fool you! When it comes to a showdown, these Texas tykes can deliver a tornado kick faster than you can say, "Tumbleweed!" So saddle up, partner, and join Samson Saguaro and his crew of Kobudo kids. They might just teach you a thing or two about the Texas-size spirit of bravery, discipline, and camaraderie.
