We really enjoy TSK Brick! Sensei Colontino and his staff are great with the kids and really establishes a foundation for growth in Marital Arts, and in the children’s personal life. Highly recommended!!!

Matt W.

My daughter started at TSMMA Brick a few months ago and absolutely loves it! She looks forward to class each time she goes and it really gave her a boost of confidence. Sensei Colontino is such a positive influence on all of the kids in class and I honestly couldn’t be happier that my daughter is a part of this group. Cannot say enough good things about this group and the people as a whole. We love being able to watch our daughter learn and grow each and every class.

Tiger Schulmann’s is a great school for both children and adults. Tiger Schulmann’s not only teaches you how to defend yourself but it also teaches its students discipline, respect and builds confidence. Its a complete life changer since all the values you learn are carried with you throughout your life and can be applied to the many challenges we face. Classes also provide a fantastic workout that will definitely get you into shape due to their high energy and intense exercises. Not to mention the much needed motivation that the instructors always provide to help us reach our goals. Give it a try, you won’t be disappointed.

Sensi B is great and welcoming. School is exceptionally clean. He and staff are very personable and make sure all are welcome when you come through the door. Would recommend for anyone looking to bring their children in to learn martial arts. Also great classes for adults! Nothing is given all is earned!

I decided to take my son to tiger Schumann’s due to the bullying he has been going through the past few years. The second I signed him up, there was a glow in his face I haven’t seen in a long time. Just from one session, I can already see a difference in him. His confidence and self-esteem grew just from one session. I cant wait to see him grow more as a person and young man! We absolutely love this program and would recommend it to anyone!!

Michele B.

My son is 10 and started the Core Kids program a few months ago. It has been an amazingly positive experience for him. The entire team takes a sincere interest in your child. I can honestly say my son is making great improvements in his confidence and self-discipline. If you are considering a Karate or Martial Arts program for your child, I don’t think you will find a better program out there.

At 56 years old I started going to tiger Schulmann’s. I never thought at this stage in my life and with my medical issues, I’d be able to do anything like this. I was so wrong. I love going to classes and feel so much better, mentally and physically. If I can do this, anyone can. People notice a change in you and it isn’t just your pant size !!

If you are looking for serious martial arts training and outlook on life by highly skilled and devoted staff, TSMMA in Brick is the best.

Love how they run their program! My son started a month ago and I already see such a positive change and boost of confidence! Will definitely recommend to all of my friends and family!

Christina M.

The school is GREAT and the teachers/trainers are AWESOME! My daughter started at Tiger Schumann’s last June. She is an absolute social butterfly but, we needed to work on her focus as well as giving her the tools for self-defense. She LOVES going to her Martial Arts classes and simply adores the Trainers (esp Sensei Colontino). He is firm when he needs to be extremely motivational… Which made Mama sign up too..lol. I signed up mostly to lose weight, now I am working towards being fit and healthy forever! If you are looking to join the TSMMA family, do it.. you will not regret it!

Zulfah C.

I am so thrilled that my granddaughter chose to attend Tiger Schulmann’s Brick. She absolutely LOVES it and goes twice a week although wishes she can go every single day. I cannot say enough good things about Sensei Robert Colontino and ALL of the instructors. They consistently teach with such optimistic and constructive manners that it gives my granddaughter, aside from great training in martial arts, self-motivation, focus, confidence, discipline and increased self-esteem. Sensei Colontino and all the instructors are just such positive role models for her which I appreciate and am totally impressed with. Thank you all so much . . . BRAVO TO TSMMA BRICK !!!!

Meet Our Head Instructor

Sensei Bobby Colontino

Tiger Schulmann Brick’s Owner and Head Sensei Robert Colontino began his journey in martial arts as a teen. “I was bullied from elementary through most of high school,” says Colontino, “until one day I fought back and never felt better. I began training at Tiger Schulmann’s at 19 to build confidence and self-control.” Today, with over two decades of teaching experience behind him, Colontino loves “seeing students grow right before my eyes from scared to confident, from unfocused to focused.”

Colontino enjoys helping adult students reach their goals and become healthier. “I recently had a member whose doctor had referred him to us. He was out of shape and very unhealthy. After 6-months of training, his doctor was able to take him off $350-a-month’s worth of medication.” “Every member comes in with unique goals,” he continues. “Through kickboxing and martial arts, we show them that they can deal with any problem that comes their way.”
