The best decision EVER!! The training, experience, and conditioning my kids are receiving are going to take them through life’s challenges! They’ve improved immensely from day one and hope to surpass their potential as they continue to train! Sensei is amazing. Not just an instructor, but a mentor who teaches with a passion! I highly recommend this center for those who want their kids – and themselves – to gain discipline and focus in the mind and body, and become part of a wonderful family of staff, students, and their families!!
Great organization, great kids, and great instructors. Our Sensei is an awesome, qualified, well-respected leader. He’s helped my son grow, gain self-esteem and self-discipline. I would recommend this place to anyone with children looking for guidance, direction, and a life skill that will assist them in every aspect of their life.
I am very new to this mixed martial arts world and family. I say family because that’s how it feels. This place is something special and I’m proud to be a part of it. Two weeks ago, my son barely made it through the door on our first trial lesson and after last night’s class, he asked if he could come 3 times a week! I highly recommend this extraordinary family and professional values establishment.

Kids who study Jiu Jitsu at Tiger Schulmann’s East Hanover 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 East Hanover 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.
Owner and Head Sensei David Castro began his journey in martial arts at age 12. What started as a quest to stop school bullying quickly turned into a meaningful career. “I knew by 17 that I wanted to become an instructor and help kids prevent and overcome the kind of bullying I endured.” Today, Castro brings over two decades of teaching experience and leadership to his role. “We help kids build confidence through achievement,” he explains. “Once they learn how to build confidence, they learn how to apply it in their everyday life. And confident kids don’t get bullied.”
Castro gives adult students the motivation and support they need to reach their fitness, weight loss, martial arts, and kickboxing goals. “Our school is diverse,” he explains. “People come in from all walks of life. But we’re all one big family. And we all have one thing in common—the desire to better ourselves.”
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.
