My wife and daughter have trained at New Dorp Tiger Schulmann for two years. They have really gained a lot of confidence, stamina, and strength in their wellness. It’s been an awesome experience. Our five-year-old son will start soon and looks forward to getting in the mat! My family will be my personal bodyguards for years to come!!!

Welcome to Tiger Schulmann’s, Staten Island - New Dorp, NY

Tiger Schulmann’s New Dorp, Staten Island helps members of all ages and abilities build complete mind-body fitness, confidence, and community through martial arts.

Meet Our Head Instructor

Sensei John Delaney

Sensei Delaney initially joined TSMA because he needed a challenge after graduating college and finishing a very successful ice hockey career. He fell in love with training and knew he was in for life.  Today, he brings over three decades of teaching expertise as Owner and Master Instructor of our New Dorp, Staten Island school.

Delaney views martial arts as an opportunity to build his students’ confidence and make them feel good about themselves. “My students inspire me every time they step on the mat,” says Delaney, “how far they’ve come, how martial arts has taught them to be mentally tough and not to give up.

Sensei Delaney is known for turning out some of Tiger Schulmann’s top
fighters, his students have competed in the: UFC, CFFC, ROC, Combat at the Capitale, Asylum Fight League, NAGA, and the NY Golden Gloves. A number
of his students have even opened their own Tiger Schulmann locations.

Delaney’s full-body adult kickboxing classes help members achieve that same focus and discipline while “giving students a killer workout.”
“My school is like a big family,” he says. “It’s a fun place to hang out
and train, and you learn real self-defense techniques simultaneously.
So it’s great for peace of mind and a good way to relieve tension.”

Even after 3 decades, Sensei Delaney continues to train and teach, which he loves to do. He is very passionate about helping his students reach their goals. He likes the quote by Vince Lombardi saying, “ Leaders are made, they are not born. They are made by hard effort, which is the price that all of us must pay to achieve any goal that is worthwhile.”
