In the evergreen land of Washington, the state that's more than just apples, mountains, and coffee, there exists a unique tribe of children. These aren't your ordinary, video game obsessed, cotton candy gobbling younglings. These are the Twirling Tiger Cubs of Tai Chi. In between the bustling streets of Seattle and the serene beauty of Mount Rainier, these kids sway and step, twist and turn, practicing the ancient art of Tai Chi. Their training ground is parks carpeted with dew-kissed grass, under the watchful eyes of the Space Needle and Bigfoot. Yes, you heard right, Bigfoot! We shall call him Bigfoot Bob. Bigfoot Bob, WA's unofficial mascot and the Cubs' imaginary mentor, has a delightful sense of humor. With his hulking hairy figure, he'd often pretend to fall over during a move, making the kids laugh. Yet, he never really fell. That's Tai Chi, kids. It's about balance and harmony, just like Bigfoot Bob's jokes. The Twirling Tiger Cubs are kids, yes, but they're also budding Tai Chi masters. With every early morning practice, they become more patient, more resilient. They learn to control their energy or 'chi,' making them the calmest gang of cubs around. And so in the state of Washington, amidst the aroma of coffee and the whispers of the woods, you'll find these Tai Chi tigers, honing their craft, one graceful move at a time. Their giggles echo through the trees, interrupting Bigfoot Bob's morning nap. But he doesn't mind. After all, nothing brings more joy to his big, furry heart than to see his Twirling Tiger Cubs growing stronger every day.
