Sarah is from the Wambaya people, North East of Tennant Creek and traditional links to
Yuggera. At an early age she was interested in music. She travelled with the family group
on tour for three years throughout Australia while completing her schooling through a home
schooling program.
She is a very warm and generous person and people are easily attracted to her approachable
nature. However her gentleness is a cover for her enormous strengths of character she portrays
within the Imbala Jarjum business as an Administrator. Her office skills are exceptional and
she self taught herself, from what she learnt at school, to operate software such as power point,
video production multimedia equipment and musical editing as an assest in the business.
There are a number of talents that Sarah has which include costume designing for their performances,
organising events on a small scale for school groups and supporting young people through difficult
times in their lives which shows the special person she is. Her dance is her release and the rewards
for the supporting role she plays in her life as a friend, sibling and role model.
As she with the rest of the group attend dance classes and rehearsal every Sunday, she is constantly
creating new works with a contemporary influence that compliments her cultural performing arts
projects. She has facilitated workshops with young people and enjoys the opportunity to present
something she has worked had on. She is currently studying for her final years by correspondence
and when she finishes she hopes to go to University to major in Human Movement and furhter her
dance career and hopefully do studies in Social Sciences to enable her to work with young children
to teach them dance, so they can to experience the self esteem and self worth that comes when you
are a performer.
Her family is the most important thing in her life however dance is a close second. She enjoys
choreographing new works with her sister Rebecca. There most enjoyable moments are when they
have been working on piece and it all comes together. She often says that she loves working in
this industry as not only do you get rewards from what you have created but also by the audience
that you present it to.
