From the reviews

My teenage son started training here through a recommendation from one of his friends and it is been an amazing experience! He has gained a solid foundation of confidence while also developing resilience and just having fun.

★★★★★ — Wilson, Jul 2023

I’ve been part of the Tiger Schulmann family for a little while now but very recently started taking Jiu-Jitsu classes. Starting JJ as an adult has been both challenging and rewarding.

★★★★★ — Heather, Feb 2025

Our son Ezra has been training at Tiger Schulmann’s North Plainfield for over five years, and the experience has been nothing short of incredible. What started as a fun activity has turned into a true passion — he’s now competing on the travel Jiu Jitsu Team and in the Challenge of Champions tournaments.

★★★★★ — Johnathan, Nov 2025

I love this school! The Sensei’s care about you and your growth; they want nothing but the best for you! The school truly cares that you are able to defend yourself if you are in a dangerous situation. They instruct self defense- mixed martial arts (MMA).

★★★★★ — Melissa, Dec 2025

New to kickboxing? Start at Tiger Schulmanns Martial Arts N. Plainfield, NJ

Tiger Schulmanns Martial Arts N. Plainfield, NJ 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 Schulmanns Martial Arts N. Plainfield, NJ

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.

Kickboxing is a contact sport. Warm up, pace yourself, listen to your coaches, and if you have any injuries or health concerns, mention them before class and check with a doctor if you're unsure.
