Even in the wild and wonderful state of Utah, known for its gorgeous mountains, sparkling lakes, and ever-changing desert landscapes, there roams an extra special group of kids. These aren't your average Utahns, oh no, they're the Krav Maga kids, and they are as tough and as cool as they come. Imagine, if you will, an ordinary Tuesday. The sun is setting on the red rock canyons, casting long shadows over the desert. That's when you see them, a group of kids armed with nothing but their confidence, courage, and a healthy dose of playfulness. Suddenly, they launch into a series of movements, swift as the desert wind, bold as the soaring eagles. That's right, they're practicing Krav Maga, the dynamic and powerful martial art, right there in the great outdoors! Leading this fiery little group is Skip McTwist, a ten-year-old with a knack for making people laugh. With his red hair standing on end and a mischievous twinkle in his eyes, Skip looks more like a cartoon character than a Krav Maga instructor. But don't be fooled by his funny faces and goofy jokes. When it comes to Krav Maga, Skip is a real pro. He can kick higher than a cowboy's hat, punch more precise than a desert hawk diving for its prey, and move faster than a jackrabbit in full sprint. In Utah, the Krav Maga kids spend their days exploring the wilderness and their evenings practicing their kicks, punches and throws. They laugh, they play and they learn, proving that in the Beehive State, you can find adventure and excitement around every corner, even in a martial arts practice!
