Private Lessons in Villach: How One Hour a Week Takes You Furthest, Fastest

The most common obstacle in martial arts training is not a lack of motivation – it is the calendar. Shift work, kids, projects, commuting, and suddenly the fixed group slot no longer fits your life. That is exactly why CFC in Villach offers private lessons: one clearly guided hour a week that works on nothing but your own progress.

Why one hour one-on-one moves more than three hours on the side

In a group class, ten or more people share the instructor's attention. That is great for dynamics, partner work and community – but your personal correction only arrives in fragments. Private lessons reverse that: every repetition is seen, every mistake corrected immediately, before it burns in as a movement pattern. That instant feedback is why students in private training often reach in weeks what otherwise takes months.

The advantages of private training at a glance

• One on one: 100% of the attention, 100% of the training time for you – no waiting, no compromises.
• Clear, direct questions any time – you never have to piece things together at home.
• Learn directly from the master: you train with the head instructor, not with an intermediate level.
• martial arts experience since 1990 and 25 years of operational security practice go straight into your correction.
• Individual pace: your build, your background, your goals set the curriculum – not the group average.
• Flexible scheduling: one fixed hour a week, aligned with your work and family life in and around Villach.
• Discretion: if group settings feel uncomfortable, you learn in a protected space without an audience.

Structure instead of chance: how a private lesson runs

Every session follows a clear structure: a short warm-up and structure check, then the topic of the week – center line, contact reflexes or a concrete self-defense situation. What you learn is then tested under rising pressure so it does not only work in calm repetition. At the end you receive two or three precise homework drills that take ten minutes a day at most. That turns one hour a week into a continuous learning process.

Wing Chun in private lessons – and more

Wing Chun is the most requested content for private lessons, because its principles – short paths, structure, contact sensitivity – open up fastest in direct contact with the teacher. Self-defense and close combat are equally possible, as are elements of weapon work with FMA – Filipino Martial Arts and HEMA – Historical European Martial Arts. All areas are part of the training at CFC Die Kampfkunstschule under the personal guidance of Sifu Erich Ferlesch.

An instructor you can actually reach

Learning from a professional does not mean distance here – it means proximity: you don't just see the technique, you feel it through your own structure. Questions are answered on the spot, doubts cleared immediately. That directness is the real value of private training – and the reason many keep it long term, even once group time becomes possible again.
