Kids who study Jiu Jitsu at Tiger Schulmann’s Greenpoint 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 Greenpoint 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.
Roman Zelenyy was captivated by martial arts at a young age. His grandfather was a professional boxer, his father practiced martial arts, and shortly after taking his first Tiger Schulmann’s classes at age 13, Zelenny knew that he wanted to become an instructor. “I fell in love with Tiger Schulmann’s and the family environment I found here,” he says. “My Sensei passed on more than martial arts knowledge. He taught us valuable life skills that I still rely on every day. Now, I aspire to help the next generation thrive just as my Sensei helped me.”
Today, Zelenyy brings over a decade of teaching expertise to his role as Owner and Head Instructor of Tiger Schulmann’s Greenpoint. As a mentor to young kids, Zelenyy teaches proven self-defense techniques tailored to his students’ age and ability. “We teach skills and moves that really work,” he says, “but we also build our students’ mental strength with the skills and confidence they need to be successful in all aspects of life.”
Zelenyy helps adults reach their health and fitness goals with kickboxing workouts that are fresh and fun. “Lifting weights and running on a treadmill are great for your health but get boring fast,” he says. “Here, our curriculum is designed to keep you engaged and motivated. We hold you accountable to your goals and make it fun to stick with it so you can reach your fitness goals and maintain them for years to come.”
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.
