Who is behind BJJEngineer?

My name is Roberto Torralbas and I'm a full time BJJ Practitioner/ Competitor/ Instructor / Coach / and School Owner making a living from what it is one of the most demanding and beautiful martial art / sport in the world. Check out my BJJ School at Third Law BJJ - Adults Program and Third Law BJJ Kids - Kids Program.

Back in 2003 I stumbled upon a small group of skinny guys doing Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. I didn�t know it at the time but that moment changed my life. After having had some experience Judo in the past one skinny BJJ white belt tapped me many times consecutively. Since then I've become addicted to BJJ and a full time BJJ Practitioner and have decided to bring my knowledge and adventures to the web through websites like this one and also BJJEngineer.TV.
