Place with tons of respect. Instructors are friendly and happy to share knowledge, great place to work out, learn to fight, and participate in a great tradition that teaches discipline
We cycled through a few local martial arts schools before landing at Tiger Kang. My kid absolutely loves this school. The classes are structured in a way that promotes high-energy movement but still encourages focus and discipline. The instructors expect and model respect while still being playful and fun. My kid has ADHD and these classes are helping her with self control and confidence. Tiger Kang is the best!
I normally do not post reviews, but a recent post about this school made me want to make sure I voiced my experience. One the owner, SHIHAN Mini, has offered help to others in her dojo and goes out of her way to buy snacks and goodies for her students. The school has always put respect and raising good people above all. I've never felt my son was anything other than family with Tiger Kang Martial Arts and definitely not just a dollar sign. Also, her son, Sensei Peter, is an incredible role model to the students. I have seen him discipline students for throwing a tantrum or showboating in the middle of a tournament. He embraces people for their unique personalities and connects with them. He has shown these kids it is ok to have fun and be yourself, but there is a time and a place. My own son has been talked to about making sure to do the right thing when it comes to dealing with teammates so I know there is no nonsense when it comes to respecting another person. I loved the school so much when we had our second child I felt comfortable enough to bring him to classes and he has grown to call Shihan his Grandma. Sorry for the book here, but I could write many more great things about all the senpais as well. Send your kid here if you want them to not only be a great martial artists, but an even better human being.
I am a member of a local BJJ gym in Delaware and I wanted to leave a positive review for the team at Tiger Kang. I volunteered at the We Defy Foundation fundraiser at Riverfront Jujitsu in Delaware this past weekend and observed many youth competitors from Tiger Kang. They showed phenomenal sportsmanship and very technical Jujitsu skills throughout the day. All of the kids that competed from Tiger Kang helped raise money for disabled veterans and deserve a pat on the back. The leadership at your gym shows. STRONG WORK Tiger Kang.
I can’t say enough about Tiger Kang. The Senseis and Senpais are wonderfully attentive, provide excellent advice and instruction for the kids and are fun most times, but strict when they need to be. Shihan is an amazing leader and example for the kids as well. This is not like other places that are in it for the wrong reasons. Every promotion here is truly earned and every decision is made with the kids’ best interests. I am only sad we didn’t get here sooner!
Great atmosphere for all ages learning martial arts. Great leadership to teach all aspects of martial arts and respect.
We have been coming to Tiger Kang for more than 3 years and our children LOVE IT! Shihan is the best there is and we are so grateful for Sensei Peter and Sensei Nina. This academy focuses on more than martial arts. They teach respect, focus, discipline, team work, responsibility and commitment. The students have to earn each and every advancement and belt they receive. We are so grateful to be a part of the Tiger Kang Family!!
Our family joined the Tiger Kang family late 2023 and do not regret our decision at all. Their attention to detail, ability to help our kids grow, their compassion, not to mention all of the community building events puts them far beyond what we had imagined. The students that also help train the classes are so amazing in helping all of the children feel welcomed, yet challenged.
Tiger kang is the best school around. I’m a yellow belt here in karate and a blue belt in grappling here. The karate classes always give a good sweat and I’m always learning new things. The grappling is top tier and they’re definitely one of the top teams in the area. Love being part of the Tiger kang family!
Tiger Kang is an exceptional MMA school. My son started there 9 months ago. He came with a black belt from another Taekwondo school which he earned after being there for 7 years. When he joined TK he started from scratch - white belt. He was hesitant and upset as it was a hard pill to swallow. But after the first class he realized why and he hasn't looked back. All senpais and sensei's are very skillful, kind, and passionate, attentive to every little detail. We love the dynamic and how they teach each student individually and as a group, they correct students right then and there so everyone performs on the same level. My son became confident, respectful, his skills across the board have dramatically improved. We feel as a part of an amazing family and look forward to each and every lesson.
We were there to see my Niece's Belt Promotion. What a nice place. We got to meet the owner + some of the Black Belt Instructors too. Tiger Kang Martial Arts had all of the students doing their best but more importantly they all were learning Respect + Discipline. It was very well executed. Nice Job
Our daughter has been at Tiger Kang for almost 2 years and it has surpassed our expectations. The confidence, discipline and skills that she has learned are amazing, even being only 7 years old. All of the families, students, senpai's and sensei's are so caring, kind and thoughtful. I cannot rave enough about how fantastic Tiger Kang is.
I go to this place for karate in my honest opinion I highly recommend Everyone is treated like family here. All of the senpais and sensei's are nice. It's a great place to learn how to defend yourself. They have great events in the winter. If your kid was looking for a martial arts school I would recommend here because of how well they teach discipline and defense. When you get to a certain belt you learn how to spar which will help you if you ever want to be in a championship for sparring. I would give this place a 100/5 stars if possible. In my honest and maybe a little biased opinion, this is an amazing place that you should sign your kid up for.
The experience at Tiger Kang Karate is almost difficult to put into words- my son has been a student there over 5 years. He has not only gained excellent skills in martial arts but has grown in self confidence, frustration tolerance, understanding of respect for self and others, humility, and good sportsmanship. The senpais and senseis (instructors) are the best role models I can imagine for my son- in martial arts and in life outside of the dojo. The curriculum is highly competitive and comes directly from South Korea where the Kang family originates. The community that the family builds, by virtue of who they are and how they treat people, is something that you know is special the moment you step inside. It’s no surprise this dojo consistently gets voted “Best karate school” in the area and is incredibly successful at competitions. They are absolutely first rate in all areas.
UPDATED: I've been at TKK for 9 1/2 years now, and it has definitely been the best decisions of my life. Black belts are earned with hard work and dedication and take years of training. It's very fun and everyone treats you like family. Your children will also learn respect and discipline along with martial arts and make many friends along the way. I am currently an instructor there, and I can't say enough good things about the instructors alongside me. Every one of them go above and beyond to not only assist students with martial arts, but to ask them how their day was, put a smile on their face or make them laugh. Students really form a connection with instructors, classmates and other families.
Great school! I currently go there I am a brown belt and I really think they are the best karate school out there! They have a warm environment and everyone is nice and they teach you how to respect people and teach discipline. If your looking for a karate school then this is the one for you or your child!
My two daughters and I are all Tiger Kang students and we love love love our Tiger Kang family! Initially, I signed my 5-year-old up because I thought it would be a great way to channel some aggressive behavior. It absolutely helped and after two years she still LOVES it. My shy 7-year-old decided to join after seeing all the fun her sister was having in class... it has really brought her out of her shell! She now has the confidence to socialize more and will stand up for herself if needed without hesitation. She practices, works hard, and feels a sense of pride when she achieves a new skill. As for me, Tiger Kang's adult classes not only give me a challenging (and sweaty) workout and provide me with self-defense techniques, but they also give me a youthful energy that I carry throughout my week. The instructors are incredibly knowledgeable and skilled at both martial arts and teaching students. They are inspiring role-models that show what can be achieved with focus and dedication. It doesn't get any better than Tiger Kang!
They have developed a perfect balance of fun, disciple, respect, and community within the walls of the school. The instuctors have a vast knowledge and understanding of their martial arts craft along with a phenomenal approach to teaching at all ages. Im proud to be apart of the Tiger Kang family.
Amazing Martial Arts School with Great Energy
This is THE BEST karate dojo that you will ever find. PERIOD. When you or your child becomes a black belt through this dojo, they will #1 Be a changed and better person because of it. They will learn respect (and I mean REAL respect), they will learn how to put others first, they will learn how to BE A LEADER (you will come in shy and come out able to teach your OWN DANG CLASS). #2 You will be one of the most skilled martial artists on the planet. At Tiger Kang, every black belt student deserves their black belt. They put quality over quantity. So no matter how many years you spend learning karate, they won't actually give you your black belt until your skills actually deserve it. I've been to other karate schools and their black belts are a joke compared to Tiger Kang. Literally anyone of the black belts here could be the star of some movie with martial arts in it. And that is how good you will become after coming to this dojo.#3 The positive and friendly environment is unreal. Being a part of Tiger Kang is like being apart of a family. It is a family run business who are genuinely passionate about what they do, but they don't just have the passion, they have the skill and talent. They are so unbelievably nice but are also very serious about showing respect. So my overall point is that this karate school is too good to put into words. You just have to experience it yourself.
We are so glad we joined the Tiger Kang family! Our son loves being a Mini Ninja. The instructors are encouraging and wonderful with the kids. We have seen so much improvement in his coordination, focus, skills, and confidence.
Best experience for kids and adults alike. They have created a community supporting competition, fun and inclusivity all at the same time.
My son Gavin is 7 years old and absolutely loves Tiger Kang Martial Arts! He has only been enrolled for three months but has learned so much already. The classes have helped with his focus and discipline and have greatly improved his confidence. The classes are fun and motivating and the Instructors are very friendly, attentive and helpful in teaching the kids. I highly recommend Tiger Kang to anyone interested in learning martial arts!

My son is 5 years old, we started beginning of May this year. He has some attention issues, is very high energy, and very sensitive. Every teacher we've come across has been so patient and kind with him! There is also a really family energy with the other moms and staff!
A beautiful family who teaches respect, kindness and overall good family values. Their martial arts programs are amazing. They have helped my grandson with his self esteem and making sure he works hard to achieve his very best. My granddaughter who is 6 is always excited to go to class and be a part of this amazing family and learn the next part of her punches and kicks. Very affordable. I love tiger kang. I am so happy I found their dojo.
I have been thrilled with the education and experience my son has received at Tiger Kang. Professional, fun, confidence- building, clean...I can't say enough great things!
Tiger Kang is an AMAZING family run karate dojo! My boys absolutely love it here! They are very supportive and encouraging. Lots of love and respect is taught here. I highly recommend.
Excellent instruction, cleaned and sanitized equipment between classes, and help each student as though they were their only student.
“I want to do this every single day!” is what my son said to me after his first lesson. Awesome place and staff is extremely friendly and helpful.
Tiger Kang is great! My son loves it here and they are so amazing with the younger kids. They have so much patience and you can tell they truly care about their students.
Treats the kids great! Fun, and shows discipline and self defense for the kids. 100% recommend!
My son love it! He love the class so fun and the teachers are friendly . Place is nice and clean. And they have the trial class $20 for three classes and T-shirt come with it.
Tiger Kang Karate is honestly one of the best places to practice MMA. I’ve been going here since kindergarten, and I’m now in seventh grade. I still have that same feeling of enthusiasm walking through the door and always feel warmth and kindness from the senpais and senseis. They keep the classes fast-paced, energetic, and fun but still find time for each individual student and ensure that everyone understands the material being taught. I also feel accomplished because I know that I’m not just given my belt, I’m going to have to earn it. I can be sure that my skills are going to match my belt and that I will move up by experience and training and not by other means. At the end of class, I find myself saddened that I have to leave because I love going here so much. Aside from teaching MMA and self defense, this school also focuses heavily on the respect factor. I have learned discipline and can give credit to this school for that. We have our own special Tiger Kang family that I can proudly say that I’m a part of.
My kids love it here. Great family run MMA club. Everyone here supports and looks out each other. Lots of love and respect. Highly recommend.
I like it because the senseis and sempais are really nice. Sensei Nina is really funny sometimes.Thats why I like tiger kang karate.
We were told by our neighbor' to give Tiger Kang a try so we did. Over a year later and our kid is still going at it. We love it, great place to learn about MMA and life skills. Great instructors and great environment. If you're thinking about joining i would say give it a try,you won't be disappointed.
Great karate studio and my daughter loves coming here. The staff is very friendly and family oriented which creates a great environment for the kids.
Tiger Kang Karate is absolutely fantastic! Very family oriented and brilliant! They care about each and every student. The black belt to student ratio is perfect!
Amazing school! I go to this school and I am a brown belt. I have been going since I was 6 and it has always felt like a family. It is so much fun and I don’t think there’s a better karate school. I recommend this to everyone.
Great karate dojo with mix martial art. Very family oriented. My kids have been studying here for the last few years. The instructors pay particular attention to the skill of student before awarding next belt, if you are interested in your kids having skills that match their belts then this is the place for them.
Simply amazing! Everybody is extremely nice! My son was shy at the beginning and they made sure he was getting comfortable and now he loves it! Highly recommended!
Love this school! It’s the perfect mix of respect and toughness. If you’re thinking about putting your child in a karate school, this should the school you choose!
This is NO "McDojo." (A sure sign of one is a karate school that nickels and dimes you for everything, and stresses belt advancement over actual skills.) The Senseis and Senpais at Tiger Kang are caring, thoughtful, and attentive to both individual and group needs. Their students and student-teachers (senpais) keep things moving at a high-energy pace, stay on schedule, but yet still find the time to ensure that no one gets left behind. They stress the importance of respect of others and self. I'm continually impressed, even after 6 months of my daughter attending this school. Ask any parent with a child at this school, they get top marks - and they've earned them!
If you are serious about studying MMA, this is the place. It's the most incredible combination of a supportive, loving, family atmosphere and a no-nonsense insistence on excellence. You will watch your children (and yourself!) achieve more than you ever thought possible. Warning: Tiger Kang is addictive.
Tiger Kang karate is an amazing mma school. They treat you like you are part of their family.
Tiger Kang Karate is hands down the best karate school in south jersey! Not only do they have the most educated staff, but they also have the most well rounded curriculum. Tiger Kang Karate has helped my two boys become a better martial artist and a better person. I can’t thank them enough for what they have done for us and how much they have positively impacted our lives! #TKK
My family and I, had just been introduced to Tiger Kang Karate this year. My mom placed her vision in various locations, but felt certain when she found them . The dojo reflects a welcoming and positive environment, that allows for not only children to grow, but as well for their entire family. They will teach more than what is believed, or intended. Unknowingly they will help uncover parts of one´s authentic being. I couldn´t be more content.
Tiger kang karate is not only beneficial for learning how to be strong and learning how to defend yourself, it is also good for learning how to be respectful and confident. On top of that you also get to have a lot of fun with the kind people around you. Going there means joining a strong family, and you will never regret it. Everyone is so welcoming and when you join, you will never want to leave. I could say a lot more but overall throughout these few months I’ve been at Tiger kang I know that Tiger kang karate is hands down the best karate school there is. I am so excited for the next few years to come, because starting karate here was definitely the best decision I’ve made.
I’ve been here since I was about 8-9 years old...now I am 16 and it honestly has been the best 5-6 years of my life. You learn so much and the people there are so genuine and nice. Thank you Tiger Kang. I also definitely recommend for anyone interested even the slightest.
I’m definitely not sporty but coming here to learn karate is both fun and a great learning experience, everyone treats you like family and their positive energy makes you motivated to never give up.
I’ve been doing karate since I was 9 and joining karate was the best decision I ever made. Throughout my years I have made wonderful friends that I now call my family and I have gotten an incredible experience throughout the years of doing Mixed Martial Arts. It teaches you confidence, discipline and leadership. It’s an amazing family to be apart of and I am thankful for everyone that has been with me!
I’ve gone to this karate school for 8 years and it’s the best thing that ever happened to me. Not only have they taught me martial arts, I’ve been taught how to be respectful . Everyone there is so nice to one another and are always happy to be there.
Great karate school! Been going there for a whike now and I cannot say enough good things about it. There is a great atmosphere, the black belts and senseis are really good at teaching you how to improve, and everyone is really nice there. Would highly recommend
I’ve been doing karate here for the past 6 years now, and the community is amazing. Everyone is so respectful and caring!! We are all like one big family and i am so glad I get to be apart of it all!!!
An absolutely exceptional karate school! The karate is off the charts awesome, way beyond anything we were expecting. But to my amazement the extra life lessons being taught along with the karate are invaluable! It is my opinion that everyone in the world needs a Tiger Kang education, can't give this school any higher marks! We love Tiger Kang! 💙❤💙❤ They rock our socks!
Tiger Kang Karate is the best karate school around! Been going here for awhile now and everyone here has become a part of my family. All of the black belts are super nice, respectful, and know what they're doing. So happy to be part of this karate family!
I've been doing karate at Tiger Kang for more than 6 years. When I started I was very very shy and untalented. With never-ending support and smiles from Sensei and the senpais they helped me open up and shown the best I can truly be. I've learned so much about what is karate, respect and also what a bond is. We are all in a karate school but within the karate school and mats we are a family.
I have been going here since I was 3 and I have learned not only mma but self discipline, respect , and life skills.
Love, love, love! I can not say enough wonderful things about this place! I wish I could give them 10 stars. Everyone there becomes family. Excellent all around. Perfect combination of discipline, respect and love! The lessons they teach along with the karate are invaluable.💞 Sensai, Sensai Nina and the Sempai’s are the absolute best! As a parent, that has done many different activities with my children throughout the years, I can honestly say nothing holds a candle to Tiger Kang!
Sensai Mini is an amazing teacher with students of all ages and abilities, from 3 years old to adult black belt masters. It's a great place to learn discipline, self- defense, grappling, jiujitsu, karate, and have fun in a family environment.
An absolutely wonderful dojo. Excellent commitment to rigorous and focused martial arts training, balanced perfectly with joy and positivism. They provide a safe, clean, family focused school, like a second home - all around the best dojo.
Not only a place to learn elite karate and martial arts, but a place where you find a family and learn respect, discipline, and strengthen skills. Tiger Kang Karate is hands down the best dojo to ameliorate yourself all around in terms of mental and physical strength and discipline.
Joining Tiger king Karate was one of the best decisions I've made in my life. I have learned a lot of Martial arts, discipline, and respect. Before I started karate, I had really bad balance and coordination. Karate has helped me with those two things which I think they are very important factors for the sport. I didn't realise I would make the amount of freinds I would, all I expected was to learn Karate and go home. We aren't friends, we are a family that support each other through the tough times we come across in our lives. If you want to come try it out Tiger Kang Karate will make you feel like you’re at home and welcomed there.
I have been going to Tiger Kang Karate for almost 4 years now. It has honestly been the best 4 years of my life. We do not only do karate we go fun places together including Six Flags, Dave and Busters, Movies, and much more. At Tiger Kang Karate we do not receive belts, we earn belts. We learn many Katas, we do grappling, sparring, self defense, kicks, and much more. Tiger Kang Karate deserves all the five stars! :)
The Best Karate Place in town.. you learn self-defence, MMA, Katas, kicks, Sparring Combos, and (my favorite)(it is also a choice) Brazilian Jui-Jistu. If your child doesn't respect you, just send them over to Tiger Kang Karate, and they will most likely be way more respectful in under a month! I am a student there, and it is most likely my favorite place to be.
