As a child our owner Barbara Niggel learned the art of Poekoelan Tjimiindie Tulen from a kind and gentle teacher, Mas Goeroe Agoeng Willy Wetzel (our clubs are named in his honor). Initially she was taught the art of self-defense to defend against the older bullies in her neighborhood. After a short time it became apparent that the art was more than self-defense and fighting; in fact, the principles are based in compassionate balanced action for safer more empowered lives. Mas Goeroe Agoeng taught Barbara to transform fear into action and this training propelled her to a National Championship at age 15, owner of her first fitness center at 17, a World Title at age 20 (which she held for nine years before retiring) to multiple clubs on Cape Cod and 11 Tulen Centers around the world. With hundreds of Black Belt instructors from all life experiences, Tulen is simple to learn and highly effective.
