Kids who study Jiu Jitsu at Tiger Schulmann’s Jersey City, 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 Jersey City, 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.
Louis Gaudinot began his martial arts journey at age 6. “I needed an outlet to release energy and build focus,” he says. He earned his black belt just two years later and today he brings nearly three decades of teaching expertise to his role as Tiger Schulmann’s Jersey City’s owner and Head Instructor.
A celebrated professional fighter, Gaudinot is a former UFC Top Ten Flyweight and competed in season 14 of Ultimate Fighter. But, he says, his primary focus has always been “helping members build their focus and reach their full potential through authentic martial arts.” The “cardio-kickboxing” classes you find at an average gym, he explains, “are taught by someone who’s taken a 2-hour certification class. At Tiger Schulmann’s, my team of instructors apprentices for years and teaches from a proven curriculum to make sure members get results, learn real streetwise self-defense, and stay safe and injury-free.” The most unexpected benefit of Tiger Schulmann’s training “is the people you meet,” he says. “We’re a big family, and many students become lifelong friends through the bond they build training.”
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.
