From the reviews
We love the Tiger Rock program! I have had 2 children participate in the program with Master Jordan, 10 years apart, and the same professionalism and enthusiasm has carried on throughout the years.
We absolutely love this place. My son and daughter both enjoy the classes and training. As a parent I have seen major growth in them, both in and out of the sport! I also train with Master Jordan in the adult class and can tell you I have learned something at every single class.
After 5 years of Karate in two other clubs, I confidently say that this Tiger Rock club is the Best of the Best. Master Jordan is a Master with Capital M!!! Beyond his incredible skills, he is the best inspiration one could hope for, he always pushes your limits and makes every session different, challenging and fun.
My daughter has been taking classes at Tiger Rock Metairie - East for a little over a year. I’ve watched her confidence, skills, and strength soar. Master Jordan and his team have found the perfect balance between discipline and fun.
New to kickboxing? Start at Tiger-Rock Martial Arts of Metairie East
Tiger-Rock Martial Arts of Metairie East comes up as a beginner-friendly gym — noted on their own site. If you've never thrown a punch or a kick, that's exactly who a good beginners class is for. A few things worth knowing before your first week. First, you don't need to be fit or coordinated to start — you get in shape by training, not before it, and coaches scale every drill to you. Second, you won't be thrown into hard sparring — reputable gyms build the basics (stance, footwork, and punches and kicks on pads and bags) first, and any contact eases in gradually under a coach's control. Third, all fitness levels really are welcome — ask about a dedicated beginners or fundamentals class time so your first session is alongside others who are also starting out. Most gyms are happy to let you watch or try a class first, so reach out before you commit.
Your first kickboxing class at Tiger-Rock Martial Arts of Metairie East
Nervous about walking into a kickboxing gym for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good coaches expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling the basics — stance, footwork, and punches and kicks on pads or a heavy bag — not hard sparring. Go at your own pace and rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: comfortable athletic clothes you can move and sweat in, and supportive trainers. What to bring: water, and hand wraps and gloves if you have them — many gyms lend loaner gloves for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own gloves and wraps (and shin guards once you start sparring). Sparring is optional and eases in gradually, once your basics are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the coach. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
