When the coaches become the reason there’s a Code of Conduct.

09/29/2026

I’m Coach Raq.

I chose the name Valkyrie because it carries everything I believe in: courage, strength, honor, resilience, and grit. That’s judo to me.

Judo teaches you how to fall, how to get back up, how to stay humble, and how to keep moving when things get hard.

And coaching has taught me that leadership is hard too. Sometimes you have to make the difficult choice, not for yourself, but for the betterment of everyone you’re responsible for.

When parents meet me, I want them to feel how deeply I care about their kids. I’m here to support them, nurture them, challenge them, and help grow them into incredible little humans who are ready for a strong adult life.

I like the medals. I love the promotions. But what matters most to me is who our athletes become along the way.

That’s our spirit and culture. 🙏🏼

Jet Tanner - thank you for such a wonderful video!

FORGING THE FUTURE OF AMERICAN JUDO 🇺🇸

Congratulations to our Head Judo Coach, Sensei Raq, on earning her Nidan (2nd Degree Black Belt)! 🥋🔥

Relentless in her mission to grow Judo across the United States, develop the next generation of warriors, and build a legacy that extends far beyond the tatami.

A proud student of Sensei Joseph Marchal, Judo Olympian, she continues to carry forward the knowledge, discipline, and traditions passed down to her, honoring those who came before while forging the path for those who come next.
