Ten Tigers Kung‑Fu Academy is an outstanding martial arts school! Led by the ever‑patient...
...and infinitely wise Sifu Rik Kellerman, they are phenomenal. Sifu somehow manages to turn even the most uncoordinated of us into graceful warriors. The classes are well‑structured, and the environment is welcoming and supportive.
Whether you're a beginner trying to figure out how to tie your belt without looking like you’re gift‑wrapping yourself or an experienced martial artist seeking to perfect your skills, you'll find something to challenge and inspire you here. Plus, if you ever wanted to feel like a superhero, this is the place to start!
The focus on self‑respect, self‑confidence, and self‑defense is evident in every session. Trust me, after a few classes, you'll be radiating confidence and might even catch yourself posing like a kung‑fu master in front of the mirror.
I highly recommend Ten Tigers Kung‑Fu to anyone looking to improve their martial arts skills and overall well‑being.

For the longest time, I had a keen interest in martial arts, but didn’t know where to start.
Then I found Ten Tigers Kung‑Fu Academy, and I’m really glad I made the decision to join. Sifu, Shue and Richard welcomed me with patience and support, helping me navigate this exciting journey.
As I’ve progressed towards my next belt level, it’s been rewarding to see the genuine happiness for my achievements. Each class offers a sense of growth and community. If you’re looking to begin your martial art journey, I highly recommend Ten Tigers Kung‑Fu Academy. It’s been a positive experience for me.

Our Programs
Rik Kellerman’s Ten Tigers Kung‑Fu Academy is one of the only schools on Long Island to teach authentic traditional Kung‑Fu. Emphasis is on teaching the complete art, exactly as it has been handed down from generation to generation, teacher to student. Here we do a style called Siu Lum Hung Kuen. Siu Lum Hung Kuen is a Southern Chinese five animal system which traces its roots back to the Fukien Shaolin (Siu Lum in Cantonese) Temple. Its Forms are based upon the movements of the Dragon, Snake, Tiger, Leopard, and Crane. Although this style is beautiful in appearance, its self‑defense is quick, direct, and brutally effective.
At the Mo-Kwoon (training hall) students train in traditional forms, classical weaponry of ancient China, self‑defense applications, sparring, Suht Gok (Chinese grappling and throwing), Southern Lion Dance, Chinese herbal medicine, meditation (Chi Kung), and Chinese culture. As you can see, Ten Tigers Kung‑Fu Academy is NOT your typical martial arts studio!

A Personal Greeting From The Owner...
Hello. My name is Sifu Rik Kellerman. I am the owner, founder and chief instructor of Ten Tigers Kung‑Fu Academy. We are located in Huntington Station, Long Island NY. We pride ourselves on teaching the highest quality martial arts, character development and moral integrity. We welcome children from the age of four, up to adults of any age.
At Ten Tigers Kung‑Fu Academy, you will never feel intimidated or physically vulnerable. We do not tolerate nor welcome individuals with negative intentions. Our “ego‑free” team atmosphere is contagious and one‑of‑a‑kind – just ask any of our students or parents of the children who train with us.
Are you, your child, or someone you know being bullied? At school? At work? Or anywhere else? Our martial arts training helps people of all ages build the skills to handle bullies with confidence and respect. Children grow stronger in self‑esteem and learn to carry themselves with confidence. Teens discover how to walk with authority, resist peer pressure, and stand tall against intimidation. Adults gain a renewed sense of self‑assurance, learning how to be polite yet firm in challenging situations. In short, we help our students find their “inner‑voice” and the strength to stand up for themselves.
It does not matter if you are young or old, athletic or out‑of‑shape. You will immediately feel at home at Ten Tigers Kung‑Fu Academy. The bottom‑line is, your dedication combined with our style and approach to the martial arts will transform your life - both on and off the mats. We welcome you to visit us or give us a call, so we can explain exactly how our program will change your life forever! Become part of the Ten Tigers Kung‑Fu Academy family!
