From the reviews
My daughter has been attending Tiger Schulmann since July. She absolutely loves it. Both Coach Bryan and Coach Rios are awesome. They pay close attention to the kids and have a way of working with young children. They are also very encouraging and affirms the kids all the time. I recommend them 110%! Thank you!
This martial arts school is outstanding. The instructors are knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely care about each student’s growth—both in skill and character. Classes are well-structured, challenging, and welcoming to all levels, from beginners to advanced students.
My husband, our son, and I all train at Tiger Schulmann’s West Orange, and it has been a game-changer for us. The instructors strike that perfect balance of being patient and fun while still challenging us to push past our comfort zones.
Love the location, enviroment and the instructors are very nice, friendly and professional.
New to kickboxing? Start at Tiger Schulmann's Martial Arts (West Orange, NJ)
Tiger Schulmann's Martial Arts (West Orange, 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 Schulmann's Martial Arts (West Orange, 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.
