From the reviews
We have been at TSMA Freehold for a little over a year. .What a difference a year makes! My boys have gained an incredible amount of skills and confidence since we have started attending. They are steadily rising in belts and even began competing!
Tiger schulmans is an amazing place to not only stay healthy but also to learn. You learn proper techniques, self defense and discipline. It is a great community of people that are there to help you and you will eventually be able to call yourself part of the family.
Tiger Schulman's (Freehold, NJ) has been a life changer for my family and I. Our two daughters have been involved in martial arts since 2021, My husband since 2023 and I just joined in 2024.
This place is amazing, truly a family environment. If I could give six stars, I would. The Sensei is fabulous and unbelievable with kids! My daughter (4) and I (38) have so much fun coming and it has been such a blessing to have found this place.
New to BJJ? Start at Tiger Schulmann's Martial Arts (Freehold, NJ)
Tiger Schulmann's Martial Arts (Freehold, NJ) comes up as a beginner-friendly gym — noted on their own site. If you've never rolled or set foot on a mat, 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 coaches scale the intensity to you. Second, you won't be thrown into hard rolling — reputable gyms build fundamentals (positions, escapes, and basic submissions) for weeks, live rolling eases in gradually, and tapping early keeps every roll safe. Third, all 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, and leave your ego at the door. Most gyms are happy to let you watch or try a class first, so reach out before you commit.
Your first BJJ class at Tiger Schulmann's Martial Arts (Freehold, NJ)
Nervous about walking into a BJJ 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 basic positions and escapes with a partner — not hard sparring. Rest 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 on the mats. What to bring: water and a mouthguard if you have one — many gyms 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 (or a rashguard and shorts for no-gi) and a mouthguard. Live rolling eases in gradually, once your fundamentals 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.
