Kids who study Jiu Jitsu at Tiger Schulmann’s Chelsea learn more than just self-defense, they learn the benefits of self-control and discipline in a safe and supportive environment.
Adult Jiu Jitsu classes at Tiger Schulmann’s Chelsea are a great way for men and women of all ages to get fit and learn self-defense. Our certified instructors provide a fun and positive atmosphere where students can safely learn new techniques that will build both skill and confidence.
In Jiu Jitsu technical skills are prioritized over strength, athletic ability, and speed, so age is less of a factor than in other sports.
Lyman Good entered the world of martial arts to overcome anger and depression. “We lived in East Harlem where drugs, gangs, and violence were pretty common,” says Good. “My mom wanted me off the streets.” As an apprentice to Shihan Schulmann, Good began mentoring other young students and before long, he says, “they began to tell me how training had changed their lives. It gave me a sense of happiness that was new to me — the act of helping someone else.” Today, Good brings over 10 years of teaching experience to his leadership at Tiger Schulmann’s Chelsea where he strives to change lives for the better every day.
A celebrated professional fighter, Good competes in the UFC, is a former Bellator Welterweight Champion, CFFC Welterweight Champion, 2015 NJMMA Hall of Fame, and won 3 – 0 in Chuck Norris’ World Combat League. His 15 years of competitive experience have taught him that “complacency is the killer of progress,” he says. As a result, Good brings “an intensity and high expectations to all [his] classes but also a strong sense of camaraderie. . . I care wholeheartedly about every student that walks in through that door,” he says. “Our members will not only get an amazing workout, learn great technique, and build their minds, but I will make sure they’re safe and looked out for.”
While many of the Jiu Jitsu techniques taught at Tiger Schulmanns are from Brazilain Jiu Jitsu (BJJ) there are a few differences. Unlike many traditonal BJJ schools, at TSMA we don’t train in gis. Additionally, while we do offer dedicated Jiu Jitsu classes at all levels, it is just one element of the many martial arts styles that comprise Tiger Schulmann’s Martial Arts.
In addtion to the many benefits for a person’s mental and physical health, jiu jitsu is considered the ideal method of self-defense for women.
“Jiu-jitsu” translates from the Japanese as “the gentle art.” The concept being, students can practice realistically and at full speed with less chance of injury.
Tiger Schulmann’s Jiu Jitsu is based on practicality and real-life self-defense. Our techniques can be used virtually anywhere and against any type of opponent or attacker. Both in sport or in an actual altercation.
Traditional BJJ does not teach how to defend against strikes from the ground. Tiger Schulmann’s teaches how to use strikes, submission, sweeps, and other techniques from the ground while staying protected.
