Private Martial Arts Lessons & Classes for Adults and Children

We offer a variety of private classes to our clients who may have a busy schedule, or for one reason or another may not be able to attend our group kids and adults classes.

Private classes are also a great addition to compliment your current training in our group classes. One way to use private classes as a supplement is to work with one of our coaches one-on-one on an area of our curriculum that you would like to master, expand upon or that you feel you are having difficulty with.

For more information on private classes please select one of the programs that we offer below.

Private Classes for Kids

There are many reasons why you might be considering private classes for your child instead of our group classes.

They might be:

  • You want to give your child an early start at age 2 or 3 in motor skill development, focus and discipline.
  • Your child might have a disability and a personalized one-on-one environment might be the best fit for them.
  • You have gotten tired of programs that turn their back on a child who they may consider difficult to teach, whether for focus, discipline or any other reason.
  • You have a busy schedule and you understand the value of martial arts training but can’t fit our group classes into your child’s current schedule.

These are all good reasons to enroll your child in our private classes.

What are not good reasons for private classes?

  • Trying to give your child an edge over other kids in their current group class.

Why not?

Our group class system is designed so that everybody comes up together as a team.

We emphasize team effort and all of our group classes are designed to help a child improve as fast as possible without burning out.

Since opening in 2007, our school has developed kids who are in love with martial arts training after 6+ years and continue to compete still at the highest level in the martial arts we practice.

This is because we create a clean, competitive environment that is fun and stress free. Any child who follows our system step by step will end up being an amazing athlete into their teen years at a world-class level.

A huge part of our system is that we are a merit-based school. This means more doors get opened for students with good attendance, good focus and good grades. These kids benefit from the personalized, one-on-one instruction of our coaches in more advanced classes — a privilege they have earned through their own hard work, good manners and dedication.

We like to teach kids from a very young age that there are some things in this world that their parents cannot buy, things that they can only earn through hard work.

Private Classes for Kids with Disabilities

Attention Parents: There is something in our society nowadays where we believe a lot of kids are getting diagnosed incorrectly with ADD, ADHD, OCD, ODD and even put on the Autism Spectrum unnecessarily.

Since we opened our doors to the community in 2007, we have only had three kids who could not integrate into our group martial arts classes and instead took advantage of our private lessons and saw huge benefits for their kids.

As of this writing in 2017, we have seen thousands of kids diagnosed with ADHD, but only one for us was a real case where the child truly was unable to concentrate despite all of our techniques.

Our philosophy is very different than the one you will find at the psychologist, neurologist or psychiatrist office. Your typical psychologist, psychiatrist, neurologist or behavior analyst will talk to you and your child for 30 minutes, go through a checklist and do some tests and then make their diagnosis — which can often be incorrect and unfortunately become a self fulfilling prophecy for your child.

Because of the diagnosis, the family will feel sorry for the child and struggle applying discipline based on the doctor’s diagnosis. This is a recipe for disaster for the child.

Our philosophy is that we try every single technique and trick in our books to get the child to focus and modify their behaviors and not their personality. For us, behaviors are things that will effect the child in a negative manner in their lives and personality is something that does not have an effect on the child’s future.

We understand that often adults are the ones with the problems: For example school teachers, society who like to blame difficulties on the child for their inefficient methods of education.

We believe that children are supposed to:

  • Break things
  • Test authority
  • Lie
  • Steal
  • Have high energy and want to run, jump, yell when sometimes not appropriate
  • Not listen immediately

It is our job as educators to turn these little wildlings into great citizens and productive members of society.

If you decide to take a private class for your child believing that they have a disability and we believe that, in fact, the group classes would help them become more social with their peers we will let you know. It might be clear the first time you come in that group classes would be best, or it might be after working in the private environment for awhile. It all depends on what is best for your child.

Nevertheless, there are many kids on the Autistic Spectrum or who have some form of physical disability and parents who are heartbroken watching everybody else’s kids participate in activities while society turns their back on them as it may be a lot of work to work with their child and not the easiest way to make a profit. .

We know that kids with disabilities can benefit tremendously from martial arts, both physically and mentally. This includes kids with birth defects, diagnoses of downs syndrome, mental handicaps, muscular dystrophy, autism, ADHD, ADD, Asberger’s syndrome, sensory processing disorders and so many more it’s hard to even make a complete list.

If this message resonates with your situation please click below and enroll your child in a one-on-one private class with one of our instructors. It would be our pleasure to work with your family.

I was a first time guest at Team Third Law today. They answered my questions, I was able to sign an online waiver, and I enjoyed my first class. All the participants were welcoming and the instructor, Coach Joe, helped me to understand the techniques he was demonstrating. He also made sure that I was matched with a suitable training partner. I highly recommend that everyone, from the curious, to the hobbyist, to the experienced martial artist check out Team Third Law!

I dropped in tonight for the Thursday Muay Thai session while in town and had a fantastic experience. Coach Joey was knowledgeable, friendly, and communicated techniques clearly while providing helpful feedback. The gym environment was awesome, everyone was welcoming, and there was a great mix of skill levels, making it easy for both beginners and advanced students to feel comfortable. I’ll definitely be back next time I’m in town and highly recommend anyone interested try an intro session here. Thank you again, Team Third Law!

There are not enough words to describe how much we love and appreciate Team Third Law Academy. My five-year-old daughter is absolutely thriving! Her confidence and self-esteem have grown tremendously since she started, and she truly enjoys every single class. She’s always excited to go and practice with her teammates. Coach Joe and the entire coaching staff are beyond professional—respectful, encouraging, and such amazing role models for the kids. They create an environment where children feel supported, challenged, and inspired. We genuinely feel like a part of one big family here. If you're looking for a positive, nurturing, and empowering environment for your child to grow both on and off the mats, we highly recommend joining Team Third Law. It’s been a game-changer for our family!

I am a 67 year old snow bird who winters in Naples and decided to take up Muay Thai as part of my retirement. I tried out Third Law based on its proximity to my residence and the wonderful reviews it had gotten. Best choice ever. Coach Joey is wonderful. His classes are great and entirely welcoming to students of all (adult) ages and experience levels. My experience, for example, was zero, while others in the class were quite experienced. Coach Joey fosters a community where each participant is respected. I just can’t say enough about this team and my time at Third Law. My class is now another reason I’m looking forward to trekking back to Naples next Winter.

We started sending our eldest child to TTL in spring 2022 and have continued ever-since. Our youngest now also now attends. We also started using TTL for summer camp last year and the kids love it! The coaches & staff at TTL are tough as nails but have the patience of saints, which is the perfect combination for our childrens' needs. We are very happy with our years at TTL.

My brother and I were visiting the Fort Myers area a few years back and decided to drop into a local Jiu Jitsu gym in the area. There were other gyms that were closer to where we were staying, but this gym had a lot of great reviews and when I called they were very friendly. My brother and I had a great experience and got good training for a noon class (typically smaller classes than an evening class). We would recommend this gym to anyone in the area or traveling from out of area.

This year was the first time my kiddos attended Team Third Laws Summer camp and we were not dissapointed. The kids had a blast on all the field trips and loved participating in the martial arts classes they did 3 times a week. A big plus was the kids were not on their tablets all summer and were continously active! The staff was amazing and we look forward to camp next year. If i had to give one critique it would be to extend camp a few more weeks:)

We were looking for a class for our 7 year old that was not only fun but would teach him skills such as respect and discipline. We are thoroughly enjoying the facility, the way that class is taught, and the kind yet stern nature the coach teaches all the kids. Very impressed!

Started the program about two years ago, and before that i had no fighting experience. I was always interested in learning but, found myself always fearing I would go in, and it be full of ego. However, I was pleasantly surprised upon entering how friendly everyone is and calm even with someone so new to the concept as I. That extends to the staff as well as the other students. They thrust you into sparring at the end of each class (not forced but highly encouraged) even if it is your first class. I wasn't expecting that, but it is what I'm there for, so I went with it. The experience was amazing. The people I sparred with, was all in good fun and very informative in terms of technique and skill. They didn't make it easy though. Wouldn't want them too either. It's a fight it is not supposed to be. But if you ever needed a break from punching each other in the face it was perfectly normal, and you just talk about life for a minute and go back to it. Such an incredible feeling to be on such good terms with people after trying to beat one another up. Jokes, compliments on good hits and combos. No ego in sight. Never in the year and some change did I have a bad experience there and wow what improvement I received to my health and confidence. It translated to all aspects of my life. A real game changer. I had to take a break for a time and canceled my subscription due to life, but when i found time one night around christmas I wanted to see my old sparring partners. I was welcomed with open arms and gloves. They took me in so that I could work with them again and man was I out of shape from taking that break. It really showed me how much it did for me. It was so bad I couldn't confidently spar at the end of the night, so I had to sit it out. I offered to pay for the one class, but they told me the one night was ok. Great people. Great Gym. Special shoutout to Master Roberto. At the time I went he was running the Kickboxing section which is what I mostly did. He was patient, firm, knowledgeable, and fun. My growth over that first year was phenomenal. Thank you, Master Roberto, if you see this. Also, shoutout to Coach Joe. My first ever class was with him in the Boxing class on a Saturday. He whopped me with only jabs I'm pretty sure! Shoutout to Coach Joey as well for filling Master Robertos shoes exceptionally. Always fostering such a positive environment. I am going to be starting again tonight. Wish me luck. Hope to see you there! don't be afraid. They will take good care of you! Sorry it took me so long to write this Master Roberto. Hope to see you soon!

Both great atmosphere and great training/ coaches! You don't often find that combo in martial arts gyms.they've got BBJ (also the he add coach has a black belt in BJJ and Judo) and Muay Thai. I forgot the name of the two main coaches, but they know what they're doing. I think they've had legit cage fights or something.

If you're nervous about starting martial arts then I suggest training here. I went in for my first class and I've been here ever since. The environment is great to work in and as long as you apply what you learn it's well worth the experience and money. I truly recommend third law to anyone new and experienced

My daughter has gone to Team Third Law for 3 years. This past year we did the after school program. We’ve recommended this gym to everyone! The staff is amazing; quick to respond, trustworthy with kids, encouraging, respectful, stern yet kind. Coach Joe has left such a positive impact on my daughter. He really made all the difference both at the after school program and at practice. My daughter learned a lot both mentally and physically here. It was just what we needed and I’m thankful for everything this facility has taught her.

We have had a wonderful experience at this gym. The coaches are knowledgeable, and the kids are learning much more than just how to submit an opponent. This gym teaches how to be a good person who is contributing and thriving in society. Worth every penny.

Absolutely love everything about TTLA. They pick up from school, have a routine and structure, yet let the kids have fun. The Jiu Jitsu program is wonderful. My daughter loves it.
