You will find information on Sifu Sarah the Eagle; he achievements and way of doing things.

Sifu Sarah has always danced to her own tune. In the past this has caused her to seem a bit aside from the general crowd. She has chosen many adventures for her self including being a nanny in the US for a year, full contact sparring, specialist weaponry, demonstration team and now in her own venue teaching.

It is often the way that what seems important, once achieved is less important. Sifu Sarah has 'donated' all her trophies for decoration in the Shaolin Academy HQ where they will be kept until . . . she want's them back

Sifu Sarah has now two great challenges;

1. As a first time mum, her son Hunter Tyson is one of her greatest challenges.
2. Her partner is Kru Mark, head instructor and principle of Tai Pan Muay Thai; where she is close to achieving her full Black Singlet.

Sifu Sarah has learned one of the most important lessons in life, one that is often commented on but very rarely understood;

Failure is a part of success


It is not your mistakes that judge you,
but how often you make them and
how well you 'fix' em.
