My family and I have joined Tiger Schulmann’s for a few years now. Yes, a few years!! That’s how much we love and enjoy the school. The workout is amazing and best of all, you are learning self-defense! The instructors are great, they are so inspiring and helpful. After every class, you feel alive and energized. Being at Tiger Schulmann’s Huntington you become part of a big family. And that’s why my family and I love it there!!

Tiger Schumann’s in Huntington is absolutely awesome! My wife and I have had our daughter (12yrs old) going to TS for a couple of years now and loves it. Sensei Castillo is truly a treasure. His instruction and direction engage the students and keep their focus throughout the class. We would definitely encourage others to join.

Sensei Castillo has a great relationship with the students as well as parents. I don’t think that bond is felt at other places. The atmosphere sensei creates I think lifts his students to do better, be better and will help as a base for years

Awesome place, awesome team..It have been a great experience, value of money, time…full of energy, me and my elder daughter are already taking classes and cant wait for my little one to start.

Kamal D.

We went to three TS locations and my son like Sensei Matt Castillo a lots.
He is so funny and professional. My son became more stronger when he is doing boxing.

Ingrid L.

This is a great school for kids and we have a great Sensei, Castillo which is a fun person when instructing the class on site and on zoom.

Bruno D.

Best place around to learn both stand-up and ground self-defense. Superb instruction by a very dedicated and excellent instructor. A friendly atmosphere makes it easy to learn and get in shape. A large clean training area with plenty of parking makes this spot ideal. With access from major roadways, this makes it easy to get to from any town in the area. Classes range from beginner to advanced and are a challenge to even the most seasoned martial artist(children and adults alike). Must swing by and give it a try!

In December I enrolled my 5 year old son. Since then his focus, and discipline has greatly improved. He has become stronger both physically and mentally. He looks forward to class everyday and wants to get more involved and further his training. Joshu Castillo does a great job motivating all of his students and makes learning fun.

Richard P.

Can’t say enough great things about Tiger Schulmanns in Huntington. Sensei along with the rest of the instructors are very professional and friendly. My son started a year ago when he was 8 years old. A year later he’s stayed with it and as a result he is stronger and healthier because of it. His confidence has also increased, which was why we started going. I would recommend Tiger Schulmanns to anyone. I see all different ages from kids to older adults.

Kirk M.

Outstanding school. The classes were fun and the instructor was right on. Knowledge of the arts was impressive as well. Highly recommended for all ages.

At Huntington, NY kids find their Tiger under the patient guidance of Sensei Matthew Castillo.

Tiger Schulmann’s Huntington helps children — from preschoolers to teens— build fitness, friendship, and confidence through martial arts.
Under the leadership of Sensei Matthew Castillo, kids learn more than punch-kick karate. They build character — grit, self-discipline, focus, loyalty, and respect — through martial arts achievements tailored to their age and ability. It’s a 360-degree approach to mind-body fitness we call Finding Your Tiger.
“We’ve seen young boys who struggle with focus become advanced-level students,” says Sensei Castillo. “And shy, insecure young women become exceptional instructors and mentors. The confidence kids build here helps them take on life’s challenges head-on— at school, at home, and beyond.”

Kids Who Find Their Tiger Are Forever Changed

Tiger Schulmann’s curriculum-based karate classes has helped thousands of children build confidence, resiliency, and develop lasting friendships. Our martial arts classes teach children self respect, focus and how to grow into mature, young men and women in a fun and safe environment.

Self-Confidence

As small wins add up, confidence grows. A student’s progression from white belt to black belt and the ranks in between, builds a confidence that goes well beyond class.

Fun, Friends & Fitness

Our kids karate classes help students put devices and distractions aside and replace them with fun and rewarding challenges that stimulate activity, real interaction.

“No-Quit” Spirit

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

Self-Defense

Combining martial arts techniques with proven anti-bullying strategies, gives kids the confidence and ability to stand up for themselves.

OUR PROVEN KIDS MARTIAL ARTS CURRICULUM

Self-Discipline Plus Self-Defense Equals Confidence

Parents love Tiger Schulmann’s because we empower their children with essential life skills.
By showing kids the power of hard work and determination, and giving them the tools to feel safe and secure, we build a foundation for achievement. Over time, those achievements – new martial arts skills and ranks earned through disciplined practice – build real confidence.

It’s a simple equation. But one with the proven power to change lives, both now and in the future.

Meet Our Head Instructor

Sensei Matthew Castillo

Sensei Matthew Castillo boasts an extensive background in Tae Kwon Do, Shotokan Karate, and Boxing. Having always been a teacher in some capacity, he found that teaching martial arts for both adults and children was a natural fit. “That look someone gives you when they get something that they struggled with is the reason I wanted to be an instructor – to help people change their lives for the better,” he says. “To make students feel positive about themselves is priceless.”
At our Huntington location, Sensei Castillo teaches adult kickboxing in an approachable and fun way. “Members learn authentic kickboxing from a kickboxing champion. And at the end of the class, most students say, ‘That’s it?! We’re done already?’ They were so busy learning, they didn’t realize they’d just burned up to 1,000 calories!” Castillo infuses his calorie-torching workout with core principles of discipline, focus, respect, courage, honor, integrity, and loyalty. “Our members make a choice to be here,” he says. “They train with a purpose to better and challenge themselves. “We align that purpose with inspiration and continuous motivation to help our members achieve success.”
