Si Jieh Evita's interest in the Martial Arts started when she was eight years old. She trained for a year at the Siamese Shaolin school with her father. After her father passed away, her training ceased, but her interest in wushu would continue to grow with her. She resumed her training at The Shaolin Wushu Kung Fu Institute under Sifu Dale in 2001.
