From the reviews
My daughter was extremely crazy before we put her in these classes. After meeting sensei there has been much change in the way she acts. She’s much more disciplined and she has changed for the better. This place is perfect for kids love this place.
I've been training at Tiger Schulmann White Plains since it opened and it has been an incredible experience. The instructors are not only highly skilled but also genuinely care about each student's progress. My family has been training under Sensei Ramirez for approximately 10 years.
To start, I want to express how much I enjoy training at this school. It’s always tidy, clean, and well-organized. Everyone is incredibly friendly and respectful. The instructors here truly go the extra mile for each of their students.
We absolutely love this dojo! Sensei Danny has been an incredible influence on our son- not only helping him improve his focus and concentration, but also guiding him through moments of impulsiveness (like running to us during class) with so much patience and care.
New to Karate? Start at Tiger Schulmann's Martial Arts (White Plains, NY)
Tiger Schulmann's Martial Arts (White Plains, 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 (White Plains, 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.
