You'll never meet a more down to earth, trusting, and knowledgeable man. Don Culp puts his students needs, goals and ambitions at the front-line. Bottom line is, you want results and a great personable experience....here's the place to be! And did I mention more affordable than most competitors and accommodating to all age groups. You won't be disappointed.....I know I haven't!
" My Happy Place" and " Amazing !!" my 9 year old son calls Don Culp's Whole Arts Training Center. He said he hopes he can go forever and that his life has gotten better because of it. Don Culp, the other instructors and all the students are kind and respectful. As a parent, it brings me great joy to see my son having fun, gaining confidence and learning so much. Deeply grateful, M & J
If you want the most genuine training experience of your life I highly recommend Don Culp's Whole Arts Studio. I am honored to call myself one of Don's students.
I've been attending classes at Don Culps whole arts training center since December 2019. Whether it's karate, jiu-jitsu, boxing, or weight training, all the classes/instructors are second to none. His teachings encompass all the aspects of the mind, body, spirit and not just the physicality of martial arts training. Thank you Hanshi Don Culp and all the other instructors from your dojo. Sincerely, Nick Francis
My son and I have been working toward a healthier lifestyle with Don Culp for almost three years. As our personal trainer he has be a positive influence in both our lives. Together we have lost over 70 pounds. My son, who is 32 and has Down syndrome, has always been treated with upmost respect and he considers Don a friend . Don has worked to adapt exercises for my son’s needs and encourages him to work hard and succeed. My son wants to start taking karate lessons in the fall as well. I recommend his Studio for anyone looking for martial arts, boxing or personal training.
My experience has been great so far. Don and his team of black belts provide a safe and fun training enviroment. Don not only promotes the physical training of martial arts but also puts great emphasis on the mental and spiritual aspects of the different disciplines he teaches.
I've been going here for the past 9 years and I absolutely love it. You can really find what works for you here and always get a great workout.
I have been studying here since I was eleven years old, and it has been a fantastic experience! The instructors are wonderful and the atmosphere of the dojo makes you feel like a part of a family. Shihan Culp has been an outstanding teacher and mentor for my karate, jiu jitsu, and boxing.
This place is so much more than a gym it is a community!
When we moved to North Kingstown in 2010, I searched for the best martial arts school for my sons I could find in the area and enrolled in Don Culp Karate Studio. He and his instructors have been excellent role models and wonderful teachers. We feel very fortunate to be a part of Shihan's school community.
My family and I have been coming to the whole arts training center for over seven years. We have taken karate,boxing, yoga, functional fitness,self defense,and personal training classes. We keep coming back for more! The instructors are fabulous and knowledgeable. The energy in this place is phenomenal! Your health and wellness is a top priority. What a gem of place on Old Baptist Road.
Don Culp’s Whole Arts Training Center has been one of the most significant influences in my life. In my +20 years of training it has added a great counter-balance to the many turbulences of life. With Shizen-do karate, jiujitsu, boxing, Self-defense training, yoga, fitness classes, Weight training, and more there is always something new to learn and more ways to better yourself as a human-being.
I can describe my first BJJ class at Don Culp's Whole Arts Training Center in two words: Eye Opening. My first class was both physically challenging and mentally stimulating and I could not wait to come back the next week to learn more. The atmosphere is welcoming and the instructors are patient and exceptionally knowledgeable. I fully recommend Don Culp's Whole Arts Training Center to anyone seeking a fulfilling way to exercise, learn how to defend yourself, or simply have fun! I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking to learn Martial Arts, BJJ, Boxing or someone just looking to get in better shape! You are sure to have fun and be challenged at the same time.
Don culp fat shamed my 10 year old son in the middle of class explaining he meant it in a good way. and when I said that I wás unhappy about it. And requested an apology to my son. I was informed my kids were not welcome back at the class because of my request. If you have children keep them as far away from this place as possible. I have never been more disappointed and a person who claims to be a mentor in any kind of sport.
