Meet Our Head Instructors
Sensei Paul Querido
“Time and time again we see students come in shy and unable to make eye contact. And through training, they evolve before our eyes into confident, smiling, happy people. It’s so rewarding.”
Sensei Querido has been teaching Martial Arts at Tiger Schulmann’s for over 30 years. He knows what works and what doesn’t. “Don’t try to follow what is popular or the hot new workout. We have a proven curriculum that has helped 1000’s.” Sensei Querido also emphasizes the aspects of training that go beyond the physical. “Everything we do is done with the concept of ‘More than just martial arts’ in mind. Every parent and student wants and deserves respect. We give that and we teach it. What’s most important to Sensei Querido is the growth of his students, especially their increased self-confidence. “We help to instill confidence in all our students. This helps to prevent them from being bullied or submitting to peer pressure.” His combination of positivity and high energy is infectious. “I love what I do and I am passionate about doing it!”
Sensei Munah Holland

She is the highest ranking Female Instructor in Tiger Schulmann’s. Having pushed herself to compete at the highest level, Sensei Holland knows what it takes to inspire others to be their best. “Teaching at any level is an exchange of energy.
