How Tiger Schulmann’s MMA Differs From UFC Gym and CKO Kickboxing

Not all kickboxing/mma programs are the same. As a matter of fact they are vastly different. There are several things that put Tiger Schulmann’s MMA ahead of UFC Gym or CKO Kickboxing. Here are just a few of them.

1. The history and longevity of Tiger Schulmann’s. Under the continued daily guidance of our founder, hall of fame inductee Master “Tiger” Schulmann, we have been teaching for 30 years. In that time we have taught over 200,000 students and grown to 50 locations. Unlike new kids on the block CKO Kickboxing and UFC Gym, we have a long and rich history.

2. The level of instruction. We don’t put an ad in the paper asking for “fitness minded people” and then try to turn them into martial arts teachers. All of our instructors are home grown. In addition, every instructor in The Tiger Schulmann’s MMA family owns their own school. We do not hold day jobs and then teach a few classes at night. We are professional martial arts instructors with a vested interest in our schools. This means every time you come to class for as long as you are a student you will have the same instructor. This is a very important part of the learning process. UFC Gym and CKO Kickboxing instructors are just employees who are very often there one day and gone the next.
The average instructor has 15 years of experience teaching the tenets of our system. There is a rigorous training and testing process to become a teacher in TSMMA. Each instructor is then required to continue to train at our headquarters with “Tiger ” Schulmann himself a minimum of twice a week in order to be eligible to teach in our schools.
In addition to that every employee working for us is certified in CPR and first aid, under goes a background check and is subject to random drug testing. Not all UFC Gym and CKO Kickboxing instructors and employees can make these claims.

3. Our curriculum. We are a true martial arts school, not a gym. Tiger Schulmann’s MMA has a tried and true curriculum comprised of the most effective, authentic self-defense techniques around. It is also designed to make sure our students get an amazing workout every time they come to class. We know exactly what we are teaching every day, week in week out , month after month for the entire year. Our program is exactly the same from school to school so you can train at any of our locations and work on the same thing you were practicing at your home school. This curriculum keeps us organized and keeps our standards very high. UFC Gym and CKO Kickboxing have no standardized curriculum, so you never know what you will get from day to day or location to location.

Tiger Schulmann’s MMA is not just any martial arts school. We are THE martial arts school. We are the Harvard of martial arts. If you are looking for a professional mma/kickboxing school you’ll find it in TSMMA.
