Discover The Dangerous Pitfalls Most Mixed Martial Arts Newbies Experience When Starting Their Training.

Your success will depend on how well you do your research.

Dear Prospective Student, In this letter I TELL IT LIKE IT IS and because of it, many fake martial arts instructors out there will hate me for it, and they will hate me forever, very few legit instructors will love me, but you know what I DON’T CARE….I AM SICK AND TIRED OF HAVING PROSPECTIVE STUDENTS LIED TO, AND HAVING THEIR TIME WASTED. MY MISSION IS TO INFORM OF WHAT REAL MARTIAL ARTS IS ALL ABOUT AND HAVE AS MANY PEOPLE JUMP IN MY SUCCESS BOAT, and I won’t stop until these fake schools are exposed.

Don’t Fall for the Usual MMA Suspects

The Usual Suspects In MMA- Buyer Beware, Naples, FL

In MMA around. the World we always find the usual suspects. Lets study them so that we can learn

Suspect #1: Martial Atrs School, Karate School, Taekwondo School that it is now a MMA school due to the grown pupularity of the UFC, but they are really a belt factory trying to be cool with the new kids on the block even though their skills are lacking. Usually Known a McDojos. One day the sign reads Naples KungFu and Karate and the next day it reads Naples Mixed Martial Arts.

Suspect #2: The Big Promiser. This is the instructor that makes promises about getting you into the UFC and he has yet to develop any UFC fighters. Instead he throws young guys in the cage without health insurance or proper training like if ihe was playing the russian roulette.

Suspect # 3: Martial Arts as Fitness Franchises that hire anyone off the street to run a Mixed Martial Arts, Brazilian Jiujitsu, or Kickboxing program. This is a great approach for the franchise owner because if the program stinks – no problem – he can just fire the instructor and start from scratch. This is not-so-great for individuals looking for a solid consistent training environment. ALso the head instructor only cares about one thing ….HIS PAYCHECKS…he is not a fool…it is not his school…the owner is not even his martial arts teacher he is just an employeee of the Big Box Gym.

Suspect #4: A bunch of tough guys and street fighters renting a hole-in-the-wall with no real experience competing or training beginners. Be careful if you train or are considering training in a place like this – make sure you have health insurance and know your own limitations. Chances of getting injured are high, of learning quality technique are small. Before you know it you think you are the next UFC superstar as this gusy will sweet talk you about how great you are because they are delusional. You will be thrown in a cage without proper training and lose your first fight by K.O!

Suspect #5: The Tiny School with a guy that feels because he is Brazilian that Gracie Jiu jitsu or Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is his birth right and that anyone not Brazilian can’t be possible better than him. This guys rarely can kick higher than 3 feet of the ground, are out of shape, and run very unprofessional academies, on top of that their credentials are questionable. I personally, Roberto Torralbas, have developed a list of credentials in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu competing in the World for 10 years and are internationally recognized as a top competitor . Two times Panamerican Champion, 7 Times National Champion, and many times Silver and Bronze Medalist at the European Championsips and Panamerican Championships, ADDC World Pro Trial Bronze Medalist Twice, I have competed in the so famous”Brazil Tournaments” and gooten Bronze, and in other international tournaments in the US I have more gold medals that I can keep track of. . I have defeated two Gracies, and I have produced better competitors in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu that any other instructor in this town (3 Panamerican Champions, Many International Champions, 3 National Champions, World Championship Medalist, and a ton of Local Champions). Nevertheless I am not Brazilian lol so I must not be as good….I am the Cuban Guy. Don’t fall on the Brazilian Guy (who is teaching outdated Jiu-Jitsu) Fan Club. You are not the best because you say you are the best but because the numbers, results say that you are the best. I believe in results producing them and reproducing them year after year.

Suspect #6: The Teacher that has all the credentials but has not been able to pass it down to his students. I didn’t open our school to have guys praise me about how great I am. I did it to produce champions and thats what I have done. 2012 Usually in this teacher school is a group of guys that are tight with each other, call them self bros, and for an outsider NEWBIE to come in and expect to learn, well he will be fed to the wolves first as they need their egos inflated from time to time. You have to do some behind kissing too get their attention or their treat you like crap.

What Makes Us Different

  1. We will examine your goals carefully wether those are to compete or to be in shape, have fun, learn a new skill be in the UFC or a Local MMA Champion, or try it as a challenge, WE WILL BE HONEST WITH YOU ABOUT WHAT IT TAKES. Two many desperate schools will lie and say anything they can, like politicians , to get that new student in the gym. I want satisfied students with goals we can help accomplish, so that our relationship could be beneficial to both of us. If we feel we will be a good match I guarantee you we will help you achieve your goal.
  2. We will have a set of milestones for you to achieve your goals. Mixed Martial Arts as you may already know consist of: Standup Striking, Throws and Takedowns, And GroundFighting. The arts most popular and preffered by most UFC professional athletes are Muay Thai Kickboxing ( standup) , Wrestling/Judo( throws and takedowns), Brazilian Jiu Jitsu /Submission Grappling (groundfighting). You need the three of them to succeed. Your first milestone will be to proficiency in each of this arts. We will teach you strong fundamentals in each of this ares. Your second Milestone will be to start on the mastery of one discipline, this will be your ACE of Spades. Milestone number 3 below!
  3. Carefully Designed Sequence of Competitions. We will build you up and give you the experience and skills necessary to succeed at every level, from beginner to professional fighter. Unlike many other programs, we do not throw our guys into the meat grinder just for experience. We also are not content to have our competitors fighting in the back of nightclubs and other “bush league” events.
  4. A System that Works for Everyone! You do not need to to be a Division 1 wrestler or Golden Gloves champion to be successful here.

“My name is Ingrid I was looking to get in shape.I got so much more than that.”

My name is Ingrid I was looking to get in shape.I got so much more than that. In just 2 weeks I could tell a difference in my endurance as well as strength just from Roberto’s conditioning routine. Also,I am learning incredible self defence. BJJ teaches you how to fight on the ground it only makes sense that a female would want to learn this. Also I have met a lot of nice people, and I am part of a awesome team. I cant say enough good things about Roberto, and how comfortable and welcomed He has made me feel.”

-Ingrid Bartuccio: Nurse Practitioner, Naples, FL

“First and foremost I want to commend you on the great program you have in Third Law. I went to your gym not knowing what to expect. Wow! It by far exceeded my expectations.”

-Abram Valdez:Customer Service Representative, Naples, FL

“Fantastic school, constantly evolving,constantly growing… setting the pace here for Brazilian Jiu Jitsu in Southwest Florida by FAR!.”

Rave Review

“I can’t even to begin to explain the results I have experienced with this man’s incredible class…”

Hey everyone, my name is Jullian Rives. As of today, May 31 of 2007, I am 16 years old and I have been taking Roberto’s Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu class for about a month and a half, closing in on two. I can’t even to begin to explain the results I have experienced with this man’s incredible class. The results I have reaped from this class are not only physical, but mental as well. I believe any form of the arts are mentally enlightening and teach you many life lessons and respect for others. Through Roberto Torralbas’ class, I feel like I have become a better person, and a better martial artist as well. Roberto has been an amazing instructor and a wise figure for me to look up to during rough times in my life. He has made me and countless others feel like family when we come together to train. This man’s flawless technique, flow, and teaching ability has helped me grow so fast in BJJ and through his vigorous training alone, I have gained weight in muscle, starting the class at 155 pounds and right now currently being at 162 pounds. From the moment I met him and took his class, I knew I couldn’t go wrong, or find anyone better to learn from than Roberto Torralbas. Thank you for giving me hope.

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.
