From the reviews
From the moment you walk in at TSMA Rockville Centre you'll meet the nicest and Best Sensei, Joshu and Sempais. The energy is just incredible. The coaches are not only highly skilled and experienced, but they genuinely care about your progress, no matter your fitness level or experience.
It truly takes a village to raise a child. As parents, we want our children to thrive—not just academically and at home, but most importantly to develop self-love, confidence, and a sense of purpose. Many children struggle with self-doubt and low self-esteem, and my son was no exception.
My two girls started karate journey here 5 years ago, and it has been an incredible experience. Besides learning the skills of karate and mixed martial arts, they’ve only gained confidence through their teachers here and also a lifelong skill set.
Tiger Schulmann’s Rockville Centre is an outstanding martial arts school that has had a tremendously positive impact on my son over the past two years. Under the expert instruction of Sensei George and Joshu Natasha, he has developed a strong foundation in kickboxing, jiu-jitsu, and, most importantly, self-discipline,…
New to BJJ? Start at Tiger Schulmann's Martial Arts (Rockville Centre, NY)
Tiger Schulmann's Martial Arts (Rockville Centre, NY) 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 (Rockville Centre, NY)
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.
