Coat of Arms
Ragnarok means in a literal sense, "The doom of the gods."
Our name reflects the doom of the gods in the modern sense. When we find ourselves in a confrontational situation where the moment of our doom has come , it's natural and normal for fear to grasp us. However, with the right training a person, (especially our students) need only dig deep to overcome this.
Our students will have the wisdom of knowledge and understanding of life and death.
Our symbol is the Valkyrie.
The Valkyrie in Norse mythology has also been known as chooser of the slain. Her roll was to oversee the battles and determine those worthy to be chosen to live and to die as well as their fate once their life is over. She is seen as both an angel of mercy and death in the eyes of the Viking.
Valkyries are also ethereal warriors with deadly skills.
It is important to note here the Vikings did not lay before their gods and beg but rather stood beside them worked and fought with them against common enemies .
It was deeds and actions that brought life after death.
