My daughter is full of energy and I enrolled her at this school to burn energy and to teach her discipline. She has been attending classes here for 2 months and her discipline has improved so much. I can see how hard she works because she’s inspired by her cohorts. I am thoroughly impressed. Also, Jared is amazing with the children. I hope he likes us because he is stuck with us ! Lol

Kat D.

We are really happy with how much our child loves Tiger Schulmann’s. The instructors are fantastic and keep things moving. They give the kids an awareness and how to handle bullying which is important while keeping it fun and energetic the entire time. Definitely recommend

Jeff T.

My sin has been going there for 5 years and absolutely love it! He is autistic and the program helped him to be more social and confident. Jared, the owner is great and love what he does.

Yania J.

I’m so happy I signed my kids up to Tiger Schulmann’s in Nanuet. Jared is amazing!!! He’s taught my kids not only self defense, but also to be confident & make them feel awesome. I have an 11yr old son whose Autistic & has regressed throughout this awful pandemic, but since he started Tiger Schulmann’s in September, he’s progressed so much. Now he follows instructions in class, stays focus & engages with his peers. I highly recommend this place.

Kelly R.

I was slightly apprehensive at the monthly cost initially, but the progress I have seen in my son has made it worth every Penny. I definitely recommend Tiger Schulman’s class in Nanuet for anyone interested in helping their kid’s gain confidence, discipline and respect. The change I’ve seen in just 2 months in the program has been tremendous. The owner is the best in town with kids!!! PS: the adult kickboxing classes are great too!

Lori K.

I enrolled my 3-yr old son here. He is the smallest/youngest in the beginner class but the owner is very patient with him. Two thumbs up!

Gilda G.

Four years ago, my 3 1/2 year old saw a commercial for Tiger Schulmanns, and I called Joshu Jared on a whim to see if he took students that young, and he invited her to her own class to see if she liked it. Today she’s a blue belt, strong, polite and outgoing. She’s even inspired her 11 year old sister to join! Martial arts training is 90% the instructor, and you won’t find a better one with children in the whole county.

Scott B.

This place is amazing, my twins love it here. They feel safe, happy, confident and themself. They have grown so much and enjoy coming to the class. They always talk about how amazing Joshu is and we all have respect for him. Will highly recommend this place!!

Vanessa R.

Great MA experience for my middle school boy. He started out at different place, but changed to TS in Nanuet, where he loves it! The Sensei keeps it very fun and engaging, and makes each student feel special – and they get an awesome education in Tiger’s version of Martial Arts!

Pierre R.

My son has gained tremendous confidence and strength attending this karate school. Joshu really cares about each snd every child that attends his classes. I highly recommend it for children of all ages and capabilities!

Jared is a great teacher. I started the adult class a few years ago such a great program and all around workout. I now bring my son and he is showing more confidence and discipline.

Kevin M.

Absolutely love Joshu and his staff! They are definitely like a second family. I couldn’t have chosen a better place for my son to do MMA! Definitely a 5 star place! What I like about it the most is they really help build a kids confidence and teaches them how to defend/protect themselves from bullies and strangers.

Diamond S.

I’ve been a member of the Tiger Schumann world for over 15 years and now my 5 year old son started training. We travel 30 minutes each for way all our classes just to be a part of Nanuet’s school. The instructor has a great balance of teaching techniques while boosting my sons self-confidence; he makes order, structure and discipline fun and something my son looks forward to every week. In the 6 months we’ve been at this school my son has show growth in his patience, his flexibility and technique. I couldn’t ask for a better environment!

Brittany L.

Tiger Schulmann’s is amazing! All of the instructors are highly trained and make training fun. Joshu Jared has helped build my son’s confidence level up and now he feels like he can do anything without hesitation. We’re excited to continue his journey at Tiger Schulmann’s.

At Nanuet, NY kids find their Tiger under the patient guidance of Sensei Jared Salzman.

Tiger Schulmann’s Nanuet is dedicated to helping kids of all ages — from preschoolers to teens — build fitness, friendship, and lasting confidence through martial arts.

Our students learn more than punch-kick karate. They build character — focus, discipline, and true grit — through real martial arts achievement. And these essential life skills help students confidently take on new challenges at home, at school, and beyond. It’s a 360-degree approach to mind-body fitness.

“My student, Justin, came to us at 16 after being horribly bullied,” says Sensei Salzman. “Here, he shined. Not only did he stand up to his bully, but today he fights in the ring and is a beloved mentor to many. His story of change and growth is just one of many that we’re proud to be a part of every single day.”

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 Jared Salzman

Sensei Jared Salzman began his martial arts journey at age 10. “I’d been bullied and picked on badly,” he explains. “But Master Ron Shulmann, who is still my instructor, made me feel like part of a family. He empowered me to stand up for myself. And from that point, I knew this is what I wanted to do for the rest of my life.” Today, Salzman brings over 15 years of teaching expertise to his role as Nanuet’s Owner and Head Instructor. “There is no better feeling,” he says, “than when a student runs into school to tell me how they stood up for themself.”

Working with members to improve their mental and physical fitness “is a dream come true,” says Salzman. “We’ve helped adults lose weight and improve their health to the point that they could stop taking medication for diabetes, high blood pressure, and anxiety. What’s more, we’ve had many members successfully defend themselves on the street, when it counts.”
Salzman credits Tiger Schulmann’s with his life-long drive to succeed and no-quit spirit. Now, he says, “I give every ounce of me to help students become their best selves.”
