Valkyrie Jiu Jitsu

“Valkyrie Jiu Jitsu is something I never thought I could or would do at my age of 72. I have had training partners in their 30’s and 40’s. I am amazed at how far I’ve come in increasing my mobility, strength, and problem solving. Professor Rachel is so patient and she explains everything so well. The studio is optimal for learning and has easy access. Its whole purpose is dedicated for the training and learning of jiu jitsu without the distractions of being in a gym setting. My major goal in taking this class was self defense. I also like that she has a women only class. I hope more women will take advantage of this wonderful opportunity we have here.”

“I have enjoyed my experiences with Valkyrie jiu-jitsu. I had taken Aikido many years back prior to losing my eyesight due to catastrophic illness. Missing the martial arts I was thrilled to find Professor Rachel and jiu-jitsu and the opportunity to engage in training once again. Being able to train by starting the movement with proprioceptive movements has once again allowed me to enjoy training. Professor Rachel takes special instruction to describe each step of the skill that she is teaching in order to allow me to learn without sight and to progress my skills. I want to encourage anyone with physical differences to give it a try.”

“My husband and 2 kids love Valkyrie jujitsu!! They have learned so much over the last few months. We would highly recommend to anyone!”

“Incredible! Best place to go in the area!”
