FAQ
Frequently asked questions about starting at CFC in Villach
Can I start without any experience?
Yes. Training at CFC Die Kampfkunstschule is structured in clear stages. You start with the fundamentals and are guided personally by Sifu Erich Ferlesch – regardless of age, fitness or prior experience.
How does the first CFC training module work?
You send an inquiry, we discuss your goal by phone and arrange an appointment in Villach. The group trial lesson (75 minutes) costs €30,- one-off; afterwards Module 1 (3 months) is available for €240,- – no subscription, no commitment.
Why is the first training module not free?
The fee is a deliberate commitment filter. We take time for a personal conversation and an individual session – that only works with people who are serious about it.
How often should I train as a beginner?
Twice a week is the benchmark for noticeable progress. Once a week is enough to stay in it – consistency over months matters more than single intense weeks.
How is CFC different from a gym or a competition club?
CFC is neither a gym nor a competition club, but a center for close combat and self-defense in Villach. You follow a structured training path instead of a loose collection of techniques.
