I would honestly recommend Valkyrie Squad to any book lover
My favorite things about Valkyrie Squad are the community and how low pressure it is. There are days when I’m just not feeling up to working out and I feel kind of pathetic for it and Sam is always giving us reminders to listen to our bodies. She will tell us it’s okay to not be active. There was a day I was having a bad mental health day and one of the other Valkyries told me a specific Valkyrie Mindstilling I should listen to and it helped so much. The discord community is amazing. People are so accepting and caring. We’ve had gift exchanges, an art night, virtual group work outs, and I know there will be so much more! I told my therapist all about our community and she told me she’s never seen me excited about working out and even wrote down the details to pass onto other book lovers. Overall it’s just been such a rewarding experience.

→ Destroy toxic cycles
→ Break social norms
→ Join the legion of badassery and change your life
I’ve had a weird relationship with exercise. I like it or I hate it. I know it makes me feel good physically, but mentally it was always a challenge because exercise = must lose weight = body dysmorphia, basically a PTSD trigger in many ways. I digress. I look forward to workouts with the Squad, and our chats, the encouragement because someone restarted, or someone had to take time off.
I want to do the program because I’ve learned to love my body and taking care of it is important… and at the end I’ll be a fucking Valkyrie.
The theme is perfect. The effort put into the program is incredible. I’m looking forward to the journey.
Hi, I’m Sam. I created Valkyrie Squad so you can be strong and confident, play with swords and kick ass. My fitness journey began in martial arts when I was 7 years old, and has never stopped. With over 10 years of professional experience as a trainer and fitness instructor, multiple fitness certifications, and a full-on OBSESSION with this series, I set out to create a program to help people like you find themselves through fitness just like Nesta.
Throughout this program, my hope is that you find yourself through fitness, and let your training transform you.
Welcome Valkyries

Mixing fitness with fantasy, I definitely could get on board with that!! I was not prepared for this incredible program.
Sam has done amazing work with all the workouts. They are so fun and I find myself excited to workout. Then on top of that, she has created a marvelous safe place of others and along with her are extremely supportive! I’m so thrilled to be a part of this group of badasses!!
I have tried so many different home workout programs. After 1 month or 6 weeks I would give up because I was not seeing any progress. Valkyrie Squad came up on my TikTok and I was very intrigued.
You can join either membership at any time! The Valkyrie Squad program is included in both of our paid memberships.
Any! This program is very beginner friendly. Even if you've been working out for years this will take you from the basics and foundations into fully fledged Valkyrie
Yes! The workouts are available for at-home or gym use.
All workouts are follow along. You'll be guided by Sam in every workout with form, modifications, variations and suggested weights.
Yes! All the videos have background music so you won't be sitting in silence.
Of course! Bala is the brand that The Micro Squad chose to use in our studio. You are not required to have them (even though they are ridiculously cute!) Any weights will be just as effective! (Use Sam’s code to save 10% on the Bala brand, or shop our Amazon list here!)
Yes, all 4 months of the Valkyrie Squad program are included in both of our paid memberships.
Your membership is month-to-month like a gym membership. We’re always adding more!
Not technically, but there is a workaround! You can create a shortcut on your phone to save to your home screen like an app.
When does it start?
What fitness level do I need to be to join?
Can I do this workout from home?
Are the videos demonstration only or follow along?
Do the videos have music?
I don't own Bala Weights, can I still participate?
I'm a member of The Micro Squad, do I have access?
Do I get lifetime access?
Is there an app?
