Synopsis

Years ago at whistlekick, we developed a mascot who was later named Master Hopkick. Our mascot has since graced coloring books and t-shirts, and has provided inspiration to martial artists and non-martial artists alike. For the first time, we publish the origins of this powerful character and all the lessons he has to offer.

This is part one of Master Hopkick's fascinating story, where we are introduced to a young boy named John Ramo. After observing martial arts for the first time while running an errand with his mother, John is immediately excited and curious, and he will stop at nothing to learn more. Follow our beloved main character as he overcomes obstacles and shows his perseverance time and again as he works hard toward his goal to learn martial arts and become a positive and inspirational role model and leader.

This tale is great for reading to younger children, especially as a reward at the end of a martial arts class. The events of the story make for great class discussions and learning opportunities. Our featured character takes us through many lessons that mirror the goals taught in martial arts: integrity, perseverance, hard work, discipline, and much more.

Whether you train in karate, taekwondo, kung fu, or another style of martial art, or even if you are just a fan of the martial arts, this fun, short story is sure to bring a smile to your face.
