From the reviews
I have been training at Tiger Schulmann's Allentown for 6 years. The instructors are very experienced and provide a variety of classes for different skill levels so you can get the most out of your workouts. Training at Tiger Schulmann's has provided me with more confidence.
My daughter has only been going here for a few months, and already loves it. She looks forward to going each and every time. She insists on going inside, no matter how early we are, so she can watch the class currently in progress, and observe classes she isn't yet taking. Shihan Simpson is great with the kids!
Both of my daughters are enrolled at Tiger Schulmann's, and they love it. It's been great watching their progress over the last few months. They've become more confident, and there is definite progress in the skills the instructors are teaching them.
My daughter has been going here for 3 years now and she loves it. Shihan is great he teaches the kids self discipline and he is slowly helping our daughter build more self confidence. Would definitely recommend.
New to muay thai? Start at Tiger Schulmann's Martial Arts (Allentown, PA)
Tiger Schulmann's Martial Arts (Allentown, PA) comes up as a beginner-friendly gym — noted on their own site. If you've never thrown a punch or a kick, 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 to start — you get in shape by training, not before it, and coaches scale the conditioning to you. Second, you won't be thrown into sparring — reputable gyms build fundamentals (stance, footwork, and the basic strikes of the "art of eight limbs") for weeks before any contact, and sparring stays optional. 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. Most gyms are happy to let you watch or try a class first, so reach out before you commit.
Your first muay thai class at Tiger Schulmann's Martial Arts (Allentown, PA)
Nervous about walking into a muay thai 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 the basics on pads and bags — not fighting. Rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: shorts or athletic wear and a t-shirt; you'll train barefoot on the mats. What to bring: water and hand wraps if you have them — many gyms lend gloves for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own gloves, wraps, a mouthguard, and shin guards. Sparring is optional and comes later, 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.
