Corporate workshops
Corporate workshops in Villach – self-defense & de-escalation for your team
We run training workshops for companies, schools, authorities, clinics and associations – planned individually, at your site or at our Kwoon in Villach.
Sifu Erich Ferlesch: martial arts experience since 1990, 25 years of operational security, running his own school in Villach since 2002.

The workshops focus on
- Confident presence and early distance control
- De-escalation and handling aggressive behaviour
- Releases and escapes standing and on the ground
- Effective defensive and offensive techniques
- Defence against knife and impact weapons
- Theory: self-defence law and legal limits
How we get there
Our training is built on a few simple, robust principles that also work against a stronger attacker. Wing Chun, FMA – Filipino Martial Arts and HEMA – Historical European Martial Arts are the three core styles at CFC Die Kampfkunstschule; striking complements the offering. The content is tested against resistance instead of memorised. Every workshop is personally supervised and tailored to your needs.
- Personal supervision by Sifu Erich Ferlesch
- No prior experience required, every fitness level welcome
- Group dynamics as a team-building effect
- Immediately usable content instead of show techniques
