Why One-on-One
100% of the Attention, 100% of the Time
In a group class, you get a fraction of the instructor. In a private session, every rep is watched, every mistake is corrected in the moment, and every drill is chosen for you. That's why private students progress in weeks instead of years.
Sessions are scheduled around your life - at your home, your office, or a private facility - and remain completely confidential. It's the same standard of instruction Franck delivers to executives, contractors, and law-enforcement professionals.
Built Around You
What Your Program Covers
Personal Threat Assessment
Your life, your routine, your risks. Every program starts with an honest assessment of where you're exposed and what you actually need to be able to do.
Circular Footwork Mechanics
Franck's proprietary CFM system - the movement foundation that puts you in position to strike, escape, or control before the threat can.
Close Combat Defense System
CCDS, taught at your pace with constant hands-on correction. Strikes, control, escapes, and decision-making under pressure.
Improvised Weapons
Learn to turn everyday objects - keys, pens, even a fork - into effective defensive tools. The environment is always armed if you know how to use it.
Scenario Pressure-Testing
Parking lots, vehicles, elevators, home entries. Your training is rehearsed in the scenarios you actually live in, not on a mat with rules.
Ongoing Progression Plan
Each session builds on the last. You leave with drills, homework, and measurable milestones so the skills keep sharpening between sessions.
