CG: I saw on your IMDb profile that you have a Black Belt in Tae Kwon Do. That is an amazing achievement. How long did it take you to get the Black Belt?

SR: It took me roughly 4 years of hard training, a mixture of both one on one and group-style class training.

CG: Are you trained in any other styles?

SR: Yes I’m trained in Capoeira for 4 years now as well.

CG: Which is your favorite?

SR: I love them both for different reasons, Tae Kwon Do to me is like boxing it’s a direct art form and Capoeira is an art form which was developed to disguise the movements by using dance and acrobatics, there is a fluidity and agility I love about capoeira that is quite liberating. Both are rich in traditions and I really like that.

CG: Which do you enjoy more acting or fighting?

SR: My first passion is and always will be acting, ideally though it’s when the two meet. :)

SR: Thank you! It was an opportunity to work with Fan Huang a talented Taiwanese director, it may expand to something bigger but for now it’s a short film. The inspiration behind it was ‘Bubblegum Crisis’ a cool 80′s Japanese, cyberpunk anime. It’s about these girls that kick ass called ‘The Knight Sabers’ they fight and protect Tokyo, it’s fantastic!
