All three of my kids have been at Tiger Schulman’s at from 4 years old to teenage years. Sensei Gaudinot is great with the kids and definitely keeps them engaged and keeps their attention. I have also signed up for classes and it is a great workout and you are learning defensive skills as well.

I’ve been a member for two years now and it’s been both an incredible experience and an amazing kickboxing journey to being more fit. Sensei Gaudinot is one of the best teachers around, his enthusiasm and dedication shine through. He has built a wonderful community and he keeps the place super clean. I highly recommend it and have recently enrolled my hubby, who hates to workout normally but looks forward to coming to class!

Sensei Louis Gaudinot will help you push your limits and love every minute of it.

In Jersey City, members learn real self-defense from a real martial artist — UFC veteran Sensei Louis Gaudinot. His high-energy kickboxing workouts combine strength training, cardio, flexibility, and proven, streetwise self-defense for the toughest workout you’ll ever love.

Sensei Gaudinot brings nearly three decades of teaching expertise to help members achieve their fitness and weight loss goals — fast. His full-body workouts burn up to 1,000 calories a class through safe, efficient exercises that maximize results. And unlike most gyms, you’re not in it alone. “To us, every member is family,” he says. “We’re here to support your growth and celebrate your victories every step of the way.”

THE WORKOUT

Push Your Limits
and Love Every Minute

Cardio, strength, flexibility, and key recovery time come together in a balanced, high-energy workout.
  • Warm Up: Prepare the body to work hard, safely
  • Bag Training: Cardio and full-body strength-training in one powerful package
  • Bodyweight Strength Training: Build core strength and stability without stressing the joints or limiting mobility
  • Stretching and Flexibility: Our restorative cool-down increases flexibility and prevents injury
Let’s go! You can do this!

LEARN REAL SELF-DEFENSE

It’s More Than a Workout,
It’s Peace of Mind

  • Street-Smart Safety: The best defense is knowing how to avoid danger, and knowing what to do when you can’t
  • A Proven Tradition: We’re 35+ years strong and real-world tested to keep you safe
  • Defense for All Levels: We’ll get you started and keep you advancing with kickboxing, close-range defense and jiu-jitsu tailored to your level
  • Confidence that Counts: Leave the class with a power and ease that makes you a far less likely target

Meet Our Head Instructor

Sensei Louis Gaudinot

Louis Gaudinot began his martial arts journey at age 6. “I needed an outlet to release energy and build focus,” he says. He earned his black belt just two years later and today he brings nearly three decades of teaching expertise to his role as Tiger Schulmann’s Jersey City’s owner and Head Instructor.

A celebrated professional fighter, Gaudinot is a former UFC Top Ten Flyweight and competed in season 14 of Ultimate Fighter. But, he says, his primary focus has always been “helping members build their focus and reach their full potential through authentic martial arts.” The “cardio-kickboxing” classes you find at an average gym, he explains, “are taught by someone who’s taken a 2-hour certification class. At Tiger Schulmann’s, my team of instructors apprentices for years and teaches from a proven curriculum to make sure members get results, learn real streetwise self-defense, and stay safe and injury-free.” The most unexpected benefit of Tiger Schulmann’s training “is the people you meet,” he says. “We’re a big family, and many students become lifelong friends through the bond they build training.”
