  • About the Designer

Born December 11, 1991 in Nashville, Tennessee, Solara Key is an artist/designer, photographer, writer, host, model, and actress.  Solara is currently residing in Murfreesboro, TN attending Middle Tennessee State University studying Japanese and psychology.

Solara has always been athletic and outgoing since she was very small. She participated in ballet, gymnastics, and swimming early on, but when she was ten years old karate came into her life. Everything she had done athletically up to that point all came together in karate.

She received her black belt in Japanese Shorin Ryu Karate December 18, 2004 from Master Jimmie Hayes. During these years she won many sparring (fighting) national and regional tournaments around the country including the Bluegrass Nationals where she met actor Bob Wall, who most people would remember as O'Hara, the "bad guy" in Bruce Lee's last movie: Enter the Dragon.

Solara became a junior blackbelt correspondent for World Black Belt online owned by Bob Wall and Chuck Norris where she wrote monthly articles.Through her international visability online from the magazine she met Leo Fong  and Ron Pohnel, both international champions in boxing and martial arts that introduced her to movie roles in "Drifter, TKD" and "Thunderkick." (IMDb)

During the Black Belt Magazine Movie Festival and Trade Show in Long Beach, CA she was approached by apparel company Sanbon to model their clothing line. Sanbon introduced Solara to Century Martial Arts to model for their international catalog and magazine advertising.

Bob Wall was also instrumental in introducing Solara to Pepper Jay and John Michael Ferrari in Hollywood, CA. At Bob's suggestion, Pepper invited Solara to host her online talk show Actors Reporter and to help create and host a series of discussions with celebrities. The outcome was a very sophisticated group of shows called the Multiple Intelligences based on a book by C. Branton Shearer.

In 2010 Solara was introduced to the world of bodybuilding and competitions. She has competed in eight competitions and continues to maintain awareness of health and wellness in her life, especially after completing the
International Sports Sciences Association (ISSA) personal fitness trainer certification in 2012.

Solara was brought up in a holistic environment at home, and thus practices alternative medicine and energy healing. She plans to evolve her practice to become a Certified Reiki Master so that she may help bring light and love to her surroundings and people in need.
