In the evergreen state of Washington, where trees stretch as high as giants and mountains tower like ancient castles, there lies a community of extraordinary kids. They are not ordinary Washingtonians; they are the Aikido kids, trained in the art of harmony and peace. They can be found in the city of Seattle, near the Fish Market, where you can hear the bellowing of fishmongers and the squawk of seagulls. Meet Sam the Squirrel, a fuzzy-tailed Aikido champion with a knack for cracking pinecone puzzles. Don't let his fluffy tail deceive you; he's got the discipline of a monk and the strength of a bear. When he wears his white gi and blue belt, his eyes sparkle, and his tail flutters with excitement. He’s as swift as the swirling wind and as balanced as an eagle on its perch. Sam leads his fellow Aikido kids in mastering the graceful movements of this beautiful martial art. They practice in a dojo that smells of pine and rain, the true scents of Washington state. No armadillo, chipmunk or raccoon dares to challenge the Aikido kids. Their strength does not lie in their ability to fight, but in their power to protect, respect, and harmonize. These kids are as diverse as Washington's landscape, some as loud as the crashing waves on the coast, others as quiet as the snow-covered hills of the Cascades. But they all have one thing in common: the love for Aikido, the spirit of harmony. And together, under the watchful eye of Sam, they become not just Aikido practitioners, but real Washington warriors, bravely defending the spirit of peace.
