Thai fan-favorite Anna 'Supergirl' Jaroonsak took a massive leap of faith after choosing to start from scratch for a new lease in life.
During her two-year hiatus from professional fighting, 'Supergirl' used the time off to reinvent herself and uproot her entire family's life to greener pastures.
It turned out to be the best decision she ever made, both on a personal and financial level.
In a recent interview with ONE Championship, the 21-year-old star opened up about closing her family gym in Bangkok, Thailand, and birthing Supergirl Jaroonsak Gym in the tropical paradise of Phuket, Thailand.

"We moved to Phuket to open a gym because we saw that there are a lot of fighters here, and the weather is much better," she said.Furthermore, Anna shared she has no regrets about leaving behind the hustle and bustle of Thailand's capital, in exchange for tranquility and peace of mind that her new surroundings provide. She added:
"In Bangkok, I had air pollution allergies, so we decided to move here. I felt like Phuket offers more opportunities for a gym, with more places to run and train."Now rejuvenated from her life-altering decision, 'Supergirl' will seek to get her promising career back on the right track at ONE Fight 34: Eersel vs Jarvis on Prime Video at Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand on August 1.
