In the heart of the United States, underneath a sky the color of sweet southern tea, lies the state of Alabama, or AL as the cool folks like to call it. AL is a magical land filled with majestic mountains, beautiful beaches, and gigantic gumbo pots. Now, the kids of AL have a secret. They are not just ordinary kids. Nope, they are also super awesome Taekwondo warriors! Meet TKD Timmy, the leader of the pack. He's a spunky little fella from Mobile with a black belt and a wild mop of red hair that flaps around when he does his high-flying kicks. His round glasses make him look like a regular boy, but don't you be fooled - those glasses have secret x-ray vision. He uses it to spot hidden candy bars and occasionally to find out what's for dinner. Then there's Turbo Tina from Birmingham. She's as fast as lightning and twice as sparkly. With her purple belt and pigtails that twirl like helicopter blades when she spins, she's a sight you can't ignore. She loves to make everyone laugh by making her Taekwondo moves look like crazy chicken dances. Don't forget Kickin' Kyle from Huntsville. He's the tallest eight-year-old you'll ever see, with a green belt that doubles as a super long limbo stick during party times. His specialty is the 'rollercoaster roundhouse kick' which he performs while making hilarious rollercoaster noises, causing everyone to collapse into giggles. These kids are not just about the kicks and the laughs though. They also learn about respect, discipline, and teamwork. They are the Taekwondo kids of AL, turning ordinary into extra-extraordinary, one hilarious kick at a time!
