Been going here for about 3 years now and let me tell you Tiger Schulmann’s Martial Arts changed my life around for the better. I saw how I got stronger mentally and physically as I kept going. If you want to learn to be more disciplined and get stronger this is the place to go. The only regret I have is not knowing to come to this place sooner.

I’m glad I enrolled in Tiger Schulman over 2 years ago. They have an efficient system for teaching kickboxing and Jiu-Jitsu. Not only that but the values you learn through the training such as self-discipline and persistence are what truly set them apart. You can be confident knowing that you’ll learn how to defend yourself, and become a stronger individual through their teachings.

Meet Our Head Instructor

Sensei Anthony Viscovich

Anthony Viscovich began his journey in martial arts at age 28. “I felt a more disciplined life would lead to a happier life,” he explains. Today he brings two decades of teaching experience to this role as Owner and Head Instructor of Tiger Schulmann’s Astoria. “I love teaching,” he says, “and students will not find a more positive or disciplined instructor.”
Teaching martial arts to children, he says, is more about process than specific skills or techniques. “It is the process that brings out this amazing confidence in them,” he says. “It’s fun to watch a shy little person turn into a strong, independent young person. It’s a very fulfilling feeling to know you’ve helped someone overcome their fears.”
Similarly, Viscovich loves “getting [adult students] to do things they thought they could never do.” “Once members pick up a technique or two and see how good they can get at defending themselves,” he says, “it becomes an obsession.” Viscovich cites one student, Ian, who joined his adult kickboxing program 50 pounds overweight and painfully introverted. “Ian lost 30 pounds in his first year and started competing in year two. He’s now down 50 pounds and is always trying to improve his form and technique. He embodies the no-quit spirit and motivates all of us never to give up.”
