Jullie Quijano
Coach
Background
Jullie's journey began at the University of the Philippines, where she initially took up judo as part of her Phys Ed class. Competing in various judo tournaments, her passion for the sport grew.
Taking on leadership roles, she served as president of the university judo club, contributing not only as a competitor but also as an instructor for fellow university students. She was also captain of the university varsity team where she assisted in mentoring her teammates, guiding them in technique enhancement, training, and overall athletic development.
Despite her strong desire to continue her judo journey in Canada, Jullie had to step away to focus on her career and other priorities. She briefly joined the University of Winnipeg Judo Club in 2007. In 2021, she has joyfully returned to the mats, dedicating her time to helping teach kids’ classes and sharing her profound love for judo with the next generation.
