Sensei Evensen and his team are top-notch! He is fair, straightforward, unassuming, works with his students in an easy-going manner that fosters learning and growth, and trains his instructors well. If you are looking for a non-Cobra Kai (aggressive/angry/needlessly intense) place to learn martial arts, are willing to put in the work, can take instruction and a methodical approach to training/exercising, this is the place to do it, and these are the people to work with.

My life changed forever when I joined Tiger Schulmann’s! The knowledge I have gained along with the friendships I have made is more than I could’ve ever asked for when I decided to join. I’ll forever be grateful for Sensai and everyone else.

Evan M.

We are extremely happy with Tiger Schulmann’s. Sensei, Senpai and Joshu are incredible role models that my children highly look up to. My children have gained confidence, as well as learned live long lessons from the instructors.

Ashley K.

Great martial arts curriculum. Amazing environment made up a wonderful group of eclectic students with terrific instruction. I recommend this school to everyone – young or old; with a prior martial arts background or not.

Bill W.

Just an awesome place to train!

Jeffrey L.

Patience, encouragement, teamwork, self-discipline…these are some of the things taught in addition to martial arts “moves”.

Meet Our Head Instructor

Sensei John Evensen

John Evensen began his martial arts journey as a 21-year-old aspiring police officer looking to get in shape and learn much-needed skills. He quickly became passionate about life on the mat, competing in sparring, wood-breaking, and kata. Three decades later, Evensen is now the head instructor at Tiger Schulmann’s Red Bank location. Here, he helps adults of all fitness levels get in incredible shape through authentic kickboxing classes. “Every day, I look forward to making my school the place where members love to come and spend their free time,” he says.
Evensen strives to give his younger students the tools they need to confidently stand up for themselves. “I grew up in Brooklyn and was bullied in school. Now I use those experiences to help my students diffuse conflict and deal with bullies in constructive ways.”
