See what students at Tiger Schulmann’s Englewood are saying

The teachers are amazing. My son is very shy and bullied in school for his weight. He goes to this school and feels so confident. He’s always excited to go. It’s a great school! I recommend to anyone thinking about going!

Amanda R.

My son loved TSK! He was a cub and loved going to class to see Joshu Fran and everyone else every Thursday. They made it fun and exciting every week teaching new skills, focus, among other skills and best of all a non-quitting-spirit. The best part was when he got home on Thursday and taught his grandparents everything he learned that day. We are really going to miss the TSK family. I would highly recommend TSK to all the little ones its fun and educational.

We are from Manhattan New York and we have been going to Tiger Schulmann’s of Englewood for my son’s classes for 4 1/2 years now and our experience has has been great from day one. They are super professional and truly care about the students. Even during the high of the pandemic they were always in contact shared online classes and also held all classes via zoom. Currently, they are still accommodating us via zoom. Jessica M.

Jessica M.

My son (6 yo) has been taking classes at TSMA Englewood for just over a year. It has been a wonderful experience – he is learning focus and discipline, skills and confidence. During quarantine, it was an amazing outlet for him to have his classes via zoom, and he is even happier to be back at in-person classes. All of the teachers are wonderfully dedicated and skilled – overall, so happy that he is able to train here!

Kelsi W.

We are currently taking classes through Zoom and it’s almost like we’re there in class, even though my connection isn’t great at times. I still get a great workout every time we have class. It’s a great stress reliever, especially now. Everyone is friendly and nice. If you’re there long enough, they become your family.

Theresa C.

I love it It is the best thing I ever did in my life. I couldn’t imagine not going there. Everybody is very helpful and they care about you and help you to be healthy and strong It’s like my second family. I would totally recommend the school. It’s totally made me a better person

Maryann Y.

My three children attend the TS of Englewood and they all LOVE it! It fosters great discipline and grit that carries over to daily life! Also very clean!

Stacey V. G. L.

My kids (7 &10) love to train here. I believe the classes and the attention they receive from their Shihan and Sensei taught them discipline and perseverance. Results started to show up on their second year, they are more interested in exercising and their attention span has increased which is showing both academically and during TSMMA classes. I do not hesitate to recommend this location, the staff is lovely and makes you feel you are part of their family.

Amina B.

I have been training at Tiger Schulmann’s for almost 7 months and feel amazing! I am in the best shape of my life and so happy. The employees are attentive and caring. I train 5 times a week and Sensei finds time during each class to push us individually. It is an amazing workout, and I’d highly recommend training there!

Alicia P.

The place is immaculately clean, organized, and comfortable to train. The instructors are knowledgeable, professionals and dedicated. It has become to me a new home and the people a new family.

Simcha J.

Sensei Klein Joshu Glasser and Joshu Salima are FANTASTIC people and trainers. They give each class 100% and help my children build confidence and stay focused! My children have been training under them for 5 years and I have seen so much confidence and skill develop it is unbelievable! Great school!

Stacy B.

I’ve been training at tsk Englewood for nearly 7 years. I have grown physically and mentally stronger learning from the amazing kid-friendly instructors. It is not just self-defense, Tiger Schulmann’s MMA has made me an overall well-rounded person. They’ve encouraged me to be more confident in myself and to overcome my fears and achieve my goals. Without tsk Englewood I would not be the person I am today. I used to get bullied before tsk, now I stand up to bullies and help people who can’t stand up for themselves.

Logan B.

A great way to learn self-defense, while accomplishing individual fitness goals and achieving overall self-discipline resulting in self-confidence for kids 4 yrs. old and up, teens, and adults of all ages.

Angela T.

This school has been such a great experience for my son. We have made so many new friends and he is constantly pushed to train hard and to never give up!

Jaime S.

It’s not the gym, it’s a full-body workout within a class where everyone pushes you to do better.

Gary J. M.

If you are looking for a place that will challenge you mentally and physically this is the place for you! The instructors are amazing and it’s pricey however you only have one body and you should take care of it. It’s worth the money and the workouts change weekly so if you are a person that gets bored easily it’s perfect for you. So happy I joined more than a year ago!

Meet Our Head Instructor

Shihan David Klein

As a small 10-year-old, Shihan David Klein was pushed around, name-called and bullied. After seeing the original Karate Kid movie, he told his parents he wanted to learn martial arts to be able to defend himself. He became a black belt at age 15 and competed throughout his teens.

Today he brings over three decades of experience to his students at our Englewood location. His adult kickboxing classes are fun, exciting, informative, and above all, an amazing full-body workout. “Most adults want to get into shape, but they don’t have the motivation,” Shihan Klein says. “I challenge them and show them they can do it. Once we succeed, it’s amazing to see how far every adult can come.” His kids’ karate classes teach the importance of self-defense and build the confidence necessary to do so. “I know what kids go through, and I know how it can affect you as a person,” he says. “I am able to share my experience and to help kids overcome whatever obstacle they are facing.”
