Tiger Schulmann’s Mixed Martial Arts

I have been training at Tiger Schulmann’s in Wayne since 2007. I was going to a gym to work out, but I wasn’t seeing any benefit from it. I had an opportunity to take some trial classes at TSMMA, and I was hooked from the beginning. The energy I felt during the class was addictive, and I simply got the best workout of my life. Sensei and his team encourage students to push themselves to work hard, while providing great instruction in the martial arts. Years later, I’m still addicted, in the best shape of my life, and I walk with great confidence knowing that I have the tools to defend myself in any situation. Sensei teaches the class in a way that commands great respect, but with humor and a sense of fun. If you’ve every thought about trying out the martial arts, definitely check out Tiger Schulmann’s — you’ll get hooked too!

I find the Wayne-​Tiger Schulmanns Mixed Martial Arts school to be challenging and rewarding both physically and mentally.
The classes are structured on multiple levels. A beginner heavy bag class allows all students to learn or review basic techniques. The intermediate classes challenge you to build and integrate those basic skills. The advanced classes require you to incorporate all that you have learned with an opponent. All these classes are challenging and at times humbling. There is always something to learn or improve.
The workouts are always intense, structured and lead by Sensei Zapfel. I was impressed with the fact that the instructors continue their own training. They talk the talk and walk the walk. The continuous training helps the instructors which in turn helps the students. This is a learning environment. At the Wayne school additional educational classes are also taught including Women’s Safe Seminars, Nutritional Seminars and Anti-​Bullying Classes.
If your looking for an intense workout that challenges you physically and makes you focus on techniques, this is the place.
I like to think that sweat is just fat crying. If your looking for a good cry come to the Wayne-​Tiger Schulmanns Mixed Martial Arts School. The school is well run, the classes are fun, the student body is very friendly and welcoming. It’s a lot of fun and a great work out.

My Daughter began classes here back in Sept 2011 & the first thing that impressed me was how good Sensei Zapfel was with the kids regardless of whether they were brand new or very advanced. He seems to be able to keep discipline without resorting to Drill sergeant tactics like yelling or humiliation. My daughter loves it and is excited to go to every class. The second thing that impressed me was that Sensei Zapfel instructs every class so their is a consistency with the training which is good since my daughter trains in both Grappling and Kickboxing. After 6months of watching her I got the bug and I started going to the Adult classes and Sensei Zapfel is just as good with adults and I am having a blast going to my classes and learning allot in addition to losing weight and getting in better shape. I can see the maturity and attitude of the older kids that have been coming here awhile and I know I made the right choice enrolling my daughter here.
Martial Arts is not for everyone but if you live near Tiger Shulmanns Wayne and you ever wanted to take martial arts for yourself or your kids then their is no better place then this.
