Beginner BJJ Boot Camp Seminar and Surprise Blue Belt Promotion, all in one night

By July 25, 2011 December 7th, 2021 Blog, News, Training

Third Law had a full house Wednesday night, with about 40 people packing the mats for its first Beginner Boot Camp Seminar, which will happen monthly from now on. This month focused on BJJ techniques and next month will focus on MMA techniques.
The free seminar is a great chance for beginner students to learn some BJJ or MMA basics, while hanging out with teammates, having fun and getting a great workout.

After a big White Belt Basics class at 7 p.m., Master Roberto asked the 40 students present to line up for the Boot Camp Seminar… but he had a surprise to reveal first: Dedicated student Robert Sadaty was to be presented with his blue belt.
Robert has been with the school for about four years, and his commitment to the school and to BJJ is visible to all who meet him.
Robert Sadaty, a dedicated Third Law student, gets promoted to Blue Belt.

Robert Sadaty, who once told Master Roberto he was too old to train BJJ, gets promoted to Blue Belt after putting in lots of hard work on the mats.

Master Roberto spoke about Robert’s hard work over those four years, and the importance of BJJ to his family. Robert’s three children Aleah, Adam and Sabrina train in the Juniors, Little Ninjas and Tiny Ninjas programs, and his wife Michelle trains in Third Law’s Women-Only program.
Robert came into the school looking for a program for his kids, and initially told Master Roberto that he was too old to train himself. Today, he is famous for his takedowns, giving much younger opponents a hard time on the mats, and is always a positive, valuable presence in the classes he attends.

After Robert shook everyone’s hand as a blue belt for the first time, it was time to get down to business for the Boot Camp seminar.
Coach Joe Formica and Master Roberto led the seminar, starting with a warm up and then covering lots of important BJJ basics.

Techniques included: Pummeling and the importance of underhooks, double leg takedowns, sprawls, straight line theory and guard recovery from mount and side control, bullfighting guard passing and more.
Students worked in pairs, getting a great workout while covering the techniques.

Finally, to end up the night, the students relaxed and enjoyed some Cuban food from World Bakery in Naples, the best Cuban restaurant in town. A great time was had by all!

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.read more

My teachers are outstanding, providing a friendly and intellectually stimulating (and occasionally full-crazy) atmosphere. The classes are physically and mentally demanding, but I love it. If you enjoy the challenge of a rigorous workout, or a late-night theological debate, or fighting for your life, Third Law is for you. Give it a shot.read more

My son 11 year old Logan has been going to 3rd law for about 10 months now and we really love the program they have. Master Roberto and Coach Joe... are no nonsense men who are teaching these kids to defend themselves, be respectful, sportsmanship, and dramatically improving the kids confidence, physical endurance and fitness, and their balance and coordination. 3rd law teaches Judo/Jiu Jitsu on Mon and Wed nights, Wrestling on Friday and Saturday, and Boxing on Saturday as well. Boxing is my sons favorite. My son is very tall and skinny and a bit uncoordinated, it took him about 6 months to get the moves down in each discipline but now we are seeing very dramatic improvements and he is very pleased with his own performance. 3rd law is a fun but tough program that reminds me of my time in the Marine Corps, I mean that in a good way. My wife and I would absolutely recommend 3rd law to any parent interested in teaching their child to defend themselves, or just be in a fun challenging sport.read more

I was visiting Naples on a business trip. I considered a few other schools to visit, but I didn't receive a welcoming vibe from the other schools. I... called Team Third Law Academy and was invited to attend the class for that evening. I had a long day of meetings, and was running late so I called and let them know I wouldn't make it, I didn't want to disrupt their class, but they insisted that I was still welcome and that I come. Once I arrived, I was greeted at the door by coach Formica who immediately invited me onto the mat, and introduced me to an awesome training partner. The coach was thorough, my partner was considerate, I had a great time. After class, I had an opportunity to roll with coach Formica and Professor Roberto Torralbas. They were both tough skilled BJJ practitioners. Everyone at the school was welcoming. They told me continually, that they were my home away from home.If you live in the Naples are make this your home! Visit this school before you commit to any other school in your region. Professor Torralbas and his wife are graduates of Cornell University, and have an after school program geared providing a value added academically enriching opportunity for youth.Make sure you visit them before you decide on a BJJ school in the Naples area. You will love it!!!read more

The facility is extremely well kept and it’s honestly such a joy to see my kids burn off some energy and most importantly have the time of their life with so many of their friends that they have made because of the teams. I recommend them to everyone because I truly stand by what they are for and i wouldn’t be writing this review if I didn’t. Y lo mejor de todo es que hablan español 10/10!!read more

My husband and I signed up our very energetic but shy 6 year old sons. We needed aftercare for them but with constructive guidance and discipline... while learning a sport. We were pleasantly surprised when we went in for orientation to note that they do pickup from school and help with homework. The added perk is that they are available and open to you on early release days and days when schools are closed. As very busy working parents this Academy is a life saver. My younger son was extremely shy and would not initially participate in activities. Coach Joe was very encouraging and patient with him and now he loves his Martial Arts. Not only are our children safe but they are very happy and disciplined while learning lessons that will aid them not only with academics but with life in general. My very introverted sons are now more extroverted chatterboxes. I highly recommend Third Law Academy, Master Roberto, Coach Katy, Coach Joe and Ms. Mila are a Godsend for those of us without family support.Gillian and Miguelread more

I refer friends to the kids program for their children. I would refer Team Third Law to anyone who's looking to compete, to someone just looking to learn some self defense skills. It has an element for everyone, without the intimidation factor that you find at other facilities. This is a warm, but hardworking environment .read more

I was in town for a few days and was able to drop in for a night. The school was large and well lit, with a lot of mat space. The instructor was... extremely welcoming as was the team, and I felt included in everything. I was having some trouble with the finer details of some of the technique, as my home gym uses a much different guard-passing system, and a brown belt helping with the class took the time come over and point out where I was going wrong. At the end of class I got to roll with a blue belt (same as me) and he was extremely tough with an awesome bottom half guard, which I could not pass to save my life. The instructors invited me back the next day, but I could not due to time constraints. Overall, I was very impressed, and had a great time training at third law.read more

Roberto Torralbas teaches a very detailed beginners class followed by rolling and advanced (which could have gone to 1am and most often does). I had a blast rolling with both Coaches Joey and Joe. They pushed the pace to make sure I stayed on track for my upcoming Fight to Win match. I'll be back soon.read more

So jealous of guys and gals that get to call this place home. I stopped in with my girlfriend while traveling to train BJJ and they couldn't possibly... have been more hospitable. The facility itself is very clean with tons of mat space but the most impressive part was the level of instruction from both Roberto and Joe. I have trained at a lot of different gyms while on the road and this is one I will make an effort to return to. Rolling with Roberto and Joe made me feel like a white belt again, in the best possible way. There is no better training this side of Florida, and so close to the beach too!read more

Boyfriend and I are travelling around the country, training BJJ whenever possible. This place is one of the best gyms we've been to. Incredibly warm... and welcoming, very professional attitude and culture, and a top notch blackbelt instructor who trains hard and is actively competing. Excellent teaching style - kind and a great sense of humor. No big egos here.read more

Was visiting the area from Minnesota and wanted to get some training in. I called and Katie invited me to stop in. No charge, just come by. I walked... in and literally every single person greeted me with a handshake or a pound. Joe the instructor was super friendly and was kind enough to grapple with me at the end of class. Really great experience and I hope to swing through next time I'm in the area. Great place.read more

I will never forget the day that Mario and I found out about team third law and we had our first orientation. I thought we were just going to watch a... video and just fill some papers . boy was I wrong ! From the very first day we were introduced to the mats and some starter techniques and of course I was freaking out. We always went to the gym and worked out before but this sport just seemed scary but we gave it a try . Let me tell you these are the friendliest down to earth people I have ever met and they made us feel just at home . If you have never done any sports before don't worry they will have patience with you because I know coach Katy and Master Roberto have had more than enough patience with me and you will never feel pressured or embarrassed . I can honestly say team third law blessed us and opened the door to many opportunities and great friends.read more

Came in on a 6 week vacation looking for a workout. Had done just enough BJJ in the past to hurt myself. I met Coach Joe after looking at 3rd Law... website. He was friendly and kind at sign up. I'm an old man but in good shape. I was pleased to find there were other fogies in there. The workouts are great, Joe being my main Coach. The other students to a person are pleasant. After the hour long flow drills there is a half hr of grappling. I last about 10 minutes now compared to 1 minute 5 weeks ago. I've learned that BJJ is a marathon not a sprint. I plan to continue at 3rd Law as I transition from a Yankee part timer to a FLA resident. Master Roberto has a great program with excellent facilities and instructors including Joe, Joey and Katy. Old or young, male or female, rookie or expert, you can't go wrong with Team 3rd Law.read more

There is a old saying that you can tell a lot about someone's character by how they treat strangers. I've trained in BJJ schools all over the country... due to work travels and vacations, and I can say that I've never had a warmer welcome than I have had at Third Law. They are extremely friendly and professional, and extremely knowledgeable and passionate about the subjects they teach. The BJJ instruction alone is absolutely first-rate. If I lived here full time I would join this school in a second, and I would encourage my friends to enroll their kids here in the various kids programs as well. Master Roberto works very, very hard to instill the most critical knowledge and values in everyone with whom he trains, adults and kids alike. You will become a better person in every way- certainly better physically and mentally- by training here.read more

I came down to Bonita Springs for the Thanksgiving Holiday and i wanted to get some training in while i was there. I looked up a few school in the... area and decided to try Third Law. I knew from the initial phone call that this school was going to be good. I explained that i am a brown belt and i wanted to stop by for a class, Katie was very friendly and personable and she even let me train free of charge! The school itself is very impressive with tons of mat space and nice faculties. The class was around 2.5 hours long, which i did not expect, but was very informative and fun. Professor Roberto is a true professional and excellent at what he does. He made me feel welcome and i never felt like i had a target on my back like some other schools might do. The competition was also impressive, there are defiantly some monsters in the school but professor Roberto will match you up based on skill level so it's fair for everyone. This place is a 5 star school and i would recommend this school to all of my BJJ friends.read more

My family and I come down to Naples from Michigan every November to visit family. The first time I started training at Third Law was in 2009. The... entire staff is knowledgeable beyond compare. Everyone who works and trains here is very friendly and helpful. Every year I come back they all remember me by name. At my home school in Michigan I always talk about Master Roberto, coach Katy and both coach Joey's. They have the perfect blend of teaching, training, drilling, flowing and the right amount of competitiveness for every student. They have a peaceful outlook to compliment the rest of the atmosphere. I can't say enough good things about this place. World class jiu jitsu! You're missing out if you're not here!read more
