Why Learn Jiu Jitsu?

Jiu-Jitsu is a martial art that is designed to help people of any size defend themselves against larger or stronger opponents. In addition to being a true confidence builder, it is also an amazing way to stay fit, flexible and enjoy the many health benefits of martial arts.  Tiger Schulmann’s offers both Jiu Jitsu classes for adults and Jiu Jitsu classes for children.

Self-DEFENSE

Jiu-Jitsu teaches you how to defend yourself against larger opponents, stay calm under pressure, and escape from dangerous situations.

PHYSICAL FITNESS

Jiu Jitsu is a full-body workout that can improve strength, endurance, flexibility, and coordination. It can also be a fun and challenging way to get in shape.

COnfidence & Focus

Training in Jiu Jitsu can help improve confidence and assertiveness, as students learn to defend themselves and become more comfortable in physical confrontations.

"No-Quit" Spirit

The difference between success and failure isn’t talent but mental toughness. Tiger Schulmann’s BJJ classes teach students to push past obstacles and achieve their goals.

Student Reviews & Testimonials

The best decision EVER!! The training, experience, and conditioning my kids are receiving are going to take them through life’s challenges! They’ve improved immensely from day one and hope to surpass their potential as they continue to train! Sensei is amazing. Not just an instructor, but a mentor who teaches with a passion! I highly recommend this center for those who want their kids – and themselves – to gain discipline and focus in the mind and body, and become part of a wonderful family of staff, students, and their families!!

Great organization, great kids, and great instructors. Our Sensei is an awesome, qualified, well-respected leader. He’s helped my son grow, gain self-esteem and self-discipline. I would recommend this place to anyone with children looking for guidance, direction, and a life skill that will assist them in every aspect of their life.

I am very new to this mixed martial arts world and family. I say family because that’s how it feels. This place is something special and I’m proud to be a part of it. Two weeks ago, my son barely made it through the door on our first trial lesson and after last night’s class, he asked if he could come 3 times a week! I highly recommend this extraordinary family and professional values establishment.
