About Us
Built by women, for women.
Our founder, CheRee, spent nearly 25 years in the medical field before realizing that traditional training was missing the why and how of real-world preparedness. She set out to create the mentor and the training environment she wished she had when she started. Valkyrie Arms Training isn't just a place to learn to shoot—it’s a judgment-free academy where you are guided, not just instructed.
Our Approach
Women learn differently. Most of us want to know the 'why' and the 'how' something works — not just be told what to do. We process information through understanding, not just repetition. Valkyrie creates a space where questions are welcomed, pace is respected, and every woman can build confidence without judgment.
Women-centered teaching methodology
Focus on understanding, not just repetition
Supportive community of like-minded women
All experience levels welcome
