Among the best if the best with TRUE JKD and WING CHUN qualified training!

The Welch Martial Arts Experience is an amazing way to learn self defense. You are able to learn the basics to defend yourself with people of all levels. Not only is learning self defense important, but the people you train with become like a second family to you. I strongly suggest joining the Welch Martial Arts Experience.

This place is one of the hidden gems in the city. Sifu Welch is an amazing instructor & has a true gift for helping each person grow at his or her own pace. I recommend this place to anyone looking to remain active or interested in self-defense.

Excellent martial art studio, and an excellent teacher!!!!!!! I have been doing martial arts for over 10 years and Sifu Sule is one of the most patient and thorough teachers I have ever had. If you are a beginner or advanced he works with you and pays special attention to your learning process and helps you learn the martial art the best way. He is very steady and follows a strict and structured martial art curriculum. He slows it down when it needs to be slowed down and picks up the pace when it needs to be picked up. The energy of this studio and the students here positive, uplifting and everyone is ALWAYS trying to help others become better. Great energy is high and egos are low. Perfect atmosphere for learning martial arts. Come check this place out.

I wanted to take a moment to write a review for what I feel to be the one of the best investments I have ever made. I have been training with the Welch Martial Arts Experience since 2009. My initial draw was the wide variety of arts that was offered which was important to me because having trained in Martial Arts in the past I was looking to focus in an art that would complement my prior training. In 2011 I was involved in accident which resulted in serious injuries which sidelined me for over 2 years. What I learned during that time was I really missed training. What keeps me training at the Welch Martial Arts Experience is the teaching style of Sifu who always seems to cater his lesson plans to each level represented in any given class. In addition to that, I enjoy the fact that each class includes individuals of various skills levels, styles, energies and personalities as training partners. This collection of attributes provides an infinite opportunity to learn from your classmates as well as the instructors. Finally I remain because the class is structured in such a way that it produces a close knit training family. This is a sense of connection that I have never experienced in previous training scenarios. In case I have not made my position clear ;-) if your question is “Should I go check out the Welch Martial Arts Experience”, my Answer would be “Absolutely……. Why are you still reading…. Pick up the phone and set up a time to go visit, or even better, just go :-). Well I know this is a bit wordy but I feel that this is the least I could do considering the value of my experience. Besides I believe I have been working on this recommendation for a few months now and if all I came away with was 2 sentences well then that would have just looked bad :-).

Sifu Sule is an amazing human. He’s had a welcoming studio. My son’s is a student & goes 3 times a week. Great summer camp offered. He’s knowledgeable about his skills inmarital arts. He’s always learning or teaching. As Sule’s says “practice makes permanent”. If you’ve got interest in improving your fitness there’s a class for you. Check it out!!

The Welch Martial Art Experience is a great place to not only learn concepts but also practical applications. Instructor Sule Welch is dynamic, engaging and knowledgeable. The Welch Martial Art Experience is a great place for mental and physical fitness.

There really arent enough stars for me to adequately express how life changing The Welch Martial Arts experience has been for me. I met Coach Sule 7 years ago when I weighed over 200 lbs. As a 51 female that was nowhere near a healthy weight! Coach Sule taught me how to work out, how to bring out my inner athlete, and how to make exercise a vital part of my everyday life. I am now 100 lbs lighter, I have visible, lean muscles and I know that I never have to go back because of the lessons he taught me. He is a consummate teacher and coach in that he will meet you where you are and work WITH you to bring out your best and help you achieve your goals. I just bought a size 4, fitted dress for my daughters wedding and I could not have done it without Coach Sule!

The Welch Martial Art experience offers fantastic martial arts training tailored to your needs. Whether you are signing up for a private or group class the head trainer Sifu Sule Welch is a great teacher and has experience in many martial arts.

Our classes emphasize patience and discipline while training us in ways to actively defend ourselves and create more awareness. Each class is unique including physical training to increase our fitness, practice in so many different techniques from a range of methods and traditions which rewire our brains and physiology as well as philosophy that expands our way of seeing the world and the way we move through it. TWE is family and Coach/Sifu/Guro Sule is a great teacher, a treasure!

Sifu Welch is an excellent coach and friend; I’ve trained with him for approximately eight years. Throughout this period, I have developed concepts that will keep me on track with my fitness objectives as well as my training goals pertaining to martial arts. His trainings encompass a variety of different marital arts techniques from Filipino martial arts to elements of American boxing which all falls under the concepts of Jeet Kune Do. The skills I’ve developed over the years have given me the confidences needed to excel in my personal and professional life. Not to mention, I have the necessary components that would allow me to combat most challenging situations. The Welch Martial Art Experience is a very warm and friendly environment and I love the instructions that Sifu Welch provides after a long and stressful day after the office. Man, I love this place!

A wonderful place with wonderful people.As of 2/2016 I have been studying with Sifu Sule Welch for over 6 years and my eldest son has been under his tutelage for about 4 years. We both could not speak more highly of him, his teaching approach, and the training program(s). He is a champion for our well-being and is an excellent role model!Having been around martial arts for many decades it seemed that most schools (especially kids programs) are a cookie cutter type experience and offer a ‘fun’ environment but they are not fully rounded and fall short on some very important life lessons. Other places are sometimes more like ‘martial art day care’ and we were looking for the opposite; which is exactly why we study with Sifu.Sifu also offers a fun environment for all of his programs, however within each he instills wonderful lessons in Personal Growth, both mental and physical:For Adults -Great martial arts and martial philosophy learning in small classes with street and situational application. Physical and mental challenges to keep you young and alert, body conditioning to get you in shape, and of course self-defense protection to help yourself and those around you.For Young Adults and Children -Helps build Focus, Respect, Self-Awareness, Responsibility, Attentiveness, Punctuality, Control, Confidence, etc.He teaches multiple martial arts under one junior program, and each is taught with the Historical and Cultural aspects of those arts. He believes in keeping the classes small so he can devote appropriate attention and he has a few assistant instructors that are wonderful young people and are great with the kids. It is an awesome introduction to other cultures and martial arts that can lead to a life-long learning and growth experience.I highly encourage anyone with an interest in martial arts (or just getting in shape) to call or visit today!

I just passed my 1 year anniversary at Sifu Sule Welchs studio. Martial Arts aside, Sifus classes and techniques have far surpassed the amount he charges per month, and have unquestionably spilled into my day-to-day life. My daughter now goes to his Juniors Class and my son will start next year. It is no doubt an Experience. Trust me... stop going to the gym. This is much better!!! As far as the Martial Arts go... all styles he teaches are second to none as far as Im concerned, and his Martial Fitness class has me back in great shape after having 4 discs replaced in my spine! Now its on to Wing Chun, Kali and Jeet Kune Do!!!Thx Sifu

The environment and classes are amazing!

Great people and knowledgeable instructor
