Martial Arts Schools in Metairie

“I cannot say enough about Tiger Rock. If you are thinking about studying martial arts, this is the place. It’s engaging, fun, and a great environment for all. You really feel like a part of the program.“

“I was there in training. I went to New Orleans to visit a relative and then I looked for a place where I could train and share a little karate-do, since I have been practicing it since I was a child, for 43 years. Since my arrival I was able to perceive the cordiality and camaraderie of the practitioners and sempais. Martiality is impeccable. The quality of the techniques they cultivate even more. It is a notable traditional shotokan dojo. I will be happy to return when I return to that country. I liked everything, the welcome of the group, the simplicity of the people, the clarity in the explanation of techniques by the sempai. A great place to train traditional karate. I congratulate your Shihan.“

“The Tiger Rock Marshall Arts program is the best sports and fitness activity that I have ever experienced in my 69 years of life! The program is perfect for children and adults of any age. Master Jordan is a master teacher, motivator and mentor. he expertly tailors the instruction to each class participant no matter what their age, fitness level or skills. My 8-year old grandson and I started classes two years ago. Our lives are changed remarkably for the better since we began the program. My grandson is now a highly skilled red belt. He is confident, strong, fit, and is now excelling in all sports and academics. He is respectful, self aware and disciplined, and his balance, agility, and mental ability are significantly enhanced. His life is truly transformed and when he reaches his goal of black belt, it will be the single most important accomplishment of his young life. I experienced the same transformation as my grandson. I feel younger than I did two years ago, and my confidence and fitness level are the best they have been since I was in my 40s. Prior to starting Tiger Rock lessons, I was an avid exerciser, due to my background in sports medicine. However, I had lost the ability to run, jump, balance and defend myself. I was suffering from the beginnings of osteoporosis, and experienced three fractures. Now after two years and a brown belt under Master Jordan's expert mentorship, I am able to participate in any activity that I choose. I am able to fall and stand up immediately without the use of my hands. I can now do 10 full push-ups, participate in high intensity jumping activities for over 30 minutes, kick while spinning and jumping, and break boards with my hands and feet. I also think more clearly, and have a much better and positive outlook on life. This program reversed my aging. I highly recommend it to all families, and all children, and especially anyone over the age of 50 who wants to change their life for the better.
