“Excellent instructors that motivate you, teach you great technique, and keep the energy going throughout class.”
“Whether you are a beginner or have experience, they meet you where you’re at.”
“It's hard to describe ourselves as "customers" or "clients" because it's very clear, from the moment you step into the school, that you're somewhere between student and family.”
“My husband and 9 year old daughter have both excelled at their MMA techniques despite the challenges that this pandemic has caused.”

From the reviews
Excellent instructors that motivate you, teach you great technique, and keep the energy going throughout class. More class times both during day and evening than most other places which helps find a schedule that works for us.
My son was being bullied at school and his reaction was aggressive towards those boys and his school punished him instead of the bully’s which made things worse. My son joined 2 1/2 years ago and there has been a significant change in how he handles situations. He has learned discipline and structure.
Hands down the absolute BEST! My husband and I both started training after seeing how incredible the instructors were with our son. After just having a baby, and being stuck home with 2 little ones during pandemic, I was in need of a change. The classes are fun, challenging, and motivating.
Overall, Tiger Schulmann's MMA offers a holistic approach to martial arts training that can positively impact various aspects of your life, from physical fitness and self-defense skills to mental focus, supportive atmosphere and personal development.
New to Karate? Start at Tiger Schulmann's Martial Arts (Syosset, NY)
Tiger Schulmann's Martial Arts (Syosset, NY) comes up as a beginner-friendly dojo — noted on their own site. If you've never thrown a punch or set foot in a dojo, that's exactly who a good beginners program is for. A few things worth knowing before your first week. First, you don't need to be fit or flexible to start — you get in shape by training, not before it, and the sensei scales the intensity to you. Second, you won't be thrown into hard sparring — reputable dojos build fundamentals (stances, blocks, punches, and kicks) for weeks, and kumite (sparring) eases in gradually, with pads and control. Third, all levels and ages 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 dojos are happy to let you watch or try a class first, so reach out before you commit.
Your first Karate class at Tiger Schulmann's Martial Arts (Syosset, NY)
Nervous about walking into a Karate dojo for the first time? Almost everyone is, and a good sensei expects beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling basic stances, blocks, punches, and kicks — not hard sparring. Step to the side whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: athletic wear you can move in (or a gi if you have one); you'll train barefoot. What to bring: water, and a mouthguard if you have one — many dojos lend a loaner gi for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own gi and the belt your dojo awards you. Kumite (sparring) eases in gradually, once your fundamentals are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the sensei. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
