Florida, the sunshine state, is a place where oranges grow like weeds, alligators are the nosy neighbors, and the sun shines brighter than a spotlight on a movie star. A place where flip flops are part of the formal attire, and the palm trees wave "hello" in the gentle ocean breeze. But there's something else that makes Florida extra special, it's the Tai Chi kids. These aren't your ordinary kids. Nope, they are a rare breed of young ones who have mastered the ancient art of Tai Chi, despite their obsession with video games and pizza pockets. They stretch and sway like rubbery flamingoes, maintaining a balance that would make a tightrope walker jealous. Meet their leader, Tai Chi Timmy, the only nine-year-old with a beard in the whole of Florida, or maybe even the world! He claims it's the Tai Chi magic that grew his beard, but we suspect it's just a stick-on from the Halloween store. Either way, it's a sight to behold! Timmy, with his pretend beard and real determination, leads the Tai Chi kids to harness their inner peace amidst the chaos of water gun fights and ice-cream truck chases. Every morning, under the candy-floss clouds, you'll find them by the sea, practicing Tai Chi moves. As the day wakes up, they mimic the slow dance of the sun, moving as fluidly as syrup dripping off a stack of pancakes. So, if you ever find yourself in Florida, forget about the theme parks. Instead, join the spectacle of Tai Chi kids moving in slow motion like they have all the time in the world. After all, where else can you find a group of kids pretending to be wise old masters... led by a bearded nine-year-old?
