Atlas BJJ is without a doubt a topnotch school. I have trained under all three Professors. Who are all knowledgeable. Professor Aidan Sericola is a friendly and knowledgeable Professor and definitely worth trying a class with if you have the opportunity.
Posted 8 months agoI have been training with Aidan and Atlas for almost 8 years. Through Jiu Jitsu I have learned true confidence, friendship, strength and capability. I would not be where I am today without Atlas. I am eternally grateful for joining the team!
Posted 8 months agoGot a membership to Atlas about a month and a half ago after trying out the free class trail. This place is the first place I have ever trained BJJ and they are very beginner friendly from the coach all the way to the team. The thing that I like the most at Atlas is the atmosphere is great, friendly, and competitive. Aiden who is the coach gives really great tips and tricks on every move he shows the class, as well as demonstrating the move multiple times in slowing down the technique so you can understand how to perform the move correctly. The team is also very friendly and helpful in performing these moves especially if you are stuck on something you will get assisted in the correct way it should be done. Overall the experience has been great and I would recommend Atlas to anyone looking for a place to train in Waltham.
Posted 9 months agoI got a membership just last month and so far it has been great. The thing I like the most is the partnership and how friendly people are, if I get stuck with something, it is not long before someone comes and helps out with the technique. Aiden is very supportive when teaching techniques too, explaining detail by detail and stopping to clear out any confusion. The experience overall has been great and I recommend to any other person looking for a Jiujitsu academy here in Waltham
Posted 10 months agoI signed my 4 year old son up for jiu jitsu about 2 months ago after his one trial class. We are so happy with the class, it incorporates both discipline and fun. My son actually looks forward to going and enjoys every second he is there. I have also noticed a boost in his confidence since starting the program. Thank you Aidan and the other coaches for being so patient and good with the littles! We love it!
Posted 1 year agoAidan is an incredible coach, instructor and mentor. It's extremely noticeable how deeply he cares for his students success and is willing to work with everybody no matter their goals and experience. The gym is extremely clean and is filled with a great group of training partners.
The kickboxing classes at Atlas are outstanding! They are designed for all levels of skill (I am a beginner, but many attending the classes are more advanced) and everyone is very friendly and willing to help. The coaches Aidan (jiu jitsu) and Red (kickboxing) are both patient, kind and overall fantastic teachers. I highly recommend if you are looking for a fun way to get exercise every week or if you are looking to train MMA.
I've been training at Atlas Jiu Jitsu under Coach Aidan Sericolo, and it's been an incredible experience. The gym has a professional and welcoming atmosphere, with detailed instruction that benefits both beginners and experienced students. Coach Aidan does a great job fostering both a strong learning environment and a supportive community. Every class I've attended has been engaging, well-structured, and a vigorous workout. Highly recommend for anyone looking to train in BJJ!
As a striker I was afraid to get into grappling, however, after a little over a month here at Atlas, there is no place I’d rather be. The coach, Aidan, is amazing and super helpful as you navigate new techniques. Everyone there is so welcoming and enthusiastic. I would give it 6 stars if I could!
Overall great environment very forgiving and helpful especially with brand knew people
Updating my review because this place is just so awesome. Coach Aidan has built up an amazing team in just a year- proof of his skill as an athlete and instructor. Did a team competition where everyone showed up and showed out. Check out these belts and medals!
We were looking for something to keep my son active. We took him to try a class and he is hooked! Highly recommend for any age!
Adrian is a great teacher and is professional. He's helpful to make a child understand and talk to them at their level. He keeps the class engaged and is creative in holiday themed jujitsu activities. He helps motivate folks.
I've trained with Aiden for a long time and I gotta say he is a great grappler and martial artist. His knowledge of the sport, athleticism, and mindset are phenomenal. I still use the mount escape he made me learn a few years ago and I swear it works every time. There's that and he's just super down to earth and a cool dude to talk to and hang with. Also, I think he's still making popular insta vids.
Atlas Jiujitsu Waltham is a great academy! It’s welcoming for all ages and abilities and offers a wonderful, structured curriculum guided by it’s owner, Aidan Sericolo. The space is clean and centrally located and the academy provides a safe and inclusive place to train. Really awesome kids program and is great for beginners or those who enjoy pushing their jujitsu game farther!
Easy going, friendly, and tough people at the same time. Coach is approachable and does a great job of making everyone feel comfortable while pushing you to get better.
My 10 year old son has had a great experience at Atlas. He typically tries a new activity and then quickly gets bored but not with Jit Jitsu and Atlas. He looks forward to going.
Excellent
Coach Aidan is great. He works closely with his students and offers guidance to build skills and confidence. The culture of the school is welcoming and treats you like you are a member of the team on day one!
I really enjoy the atmosphere here—everyone is friendly regardless of your skill level. Classes are available every day except weekends, with review sessions on Fridays. Most of the trainees are fit young men, so learning BJJ here is incredibly practical, whether for self-defense, fitness, or improving physical conditioning。
Aidan is the best coach! He tailors specific training exercises for everyone based on their skill level, so you can learn together with others no matter your experience. Each class includes opportunities for live practice, and the gym stays open even on holidays!
I joined Atlas a month and a half ago and already I’m glad I made the change. Aidan is a great instructor. He gets to know all of his students individually and works with everyone wherever they are at in their jiujitsu journey. He closely supervises everyone and gives tips and advice to everyone. You never feel like you showed up and weren’t even noticed, let alone helped. The other students are all very kind and supportive as well, and there isn’t any of that “old boys club” feeling that some other gyms have, which makes me more comfortable training there. I can really tell that Aidan has put a lot of time and effort into creating such a welcoming atmosphere. Whether you are trying Brazilian jiujitsu for the first time or looking for a change in your current training, I highly recommend Atlas!
Atlas Jiu Jitsu and everyone there were very welcoming and the classes are very well taught. Aidan works hard to create a great atmosphere and culture. I would recommend this place to anyone
Had a great experience dropping in for both a no-gi and gi class at Atlas Jiu Jitsu in Waltham. The instructor (Aidan) was very welcoming, as were all the students. We worked on knee cut variations and chaining with the X pass, followed by fun and technical positional rounds focusing on guard passing and retention. I could tell Aidan truly cares about his students' development, offering both general technique pointers and personalized tips to improve each person's game throughout class.
This has been an amazing experience for my kids. My daughter is a little on the shy side at times and coach Aidan does an amazing job trying to make her comfortable and get her out of her shell. My son is the opposite and runs right in, but both leave each time raving about their experience. Coach Aidan is patient with the kids, but also has high expectations for the kids (in the best way) which has led to increased discipline for my kids. It has been a great experience for all of us!
Truly enjoy watching my kiddos learn BJJ techniques and discipline from Coach Aidan. They have a blast while doing it!
Great environment, lots of good rolling, highly recommend!
As someone who’s brand new to Jiu Jitsu, I couldn’t recommend Atlas more. This gym has a very welcoming atmosphere with all sorts of people of different skill levels, and the coaching staff and gym members alike are very nice and patient. Aiden is a great coach and an awesome guy, he knows just how to coach each person as they need and is clearly an expert at Jiu Jitsu. He can break things down simply for the newcomers and get very technical for the more experienced members when needed. If you’re like me and have considered doing Jiu Jitsu for years, I highly recommend giving a class a try.
Excellent teacher and classmates
amazing instruction, friendly students, inclusive environment. high level, or just starting out, Atlas jiu jitsu is the place to be!
Great gym run by a fantastic coach!
Excellent instruction. Clean and supportive environment. Great place to train jiu jitsu. Atlas JJ is the place to be if you’re looking to learn jiu jitsu.
Professor Aidan is the best!
I have been going to Atlas Jiu Jitsu in waltham for three months and I belive it has been one of the best decisions I've made. I love the academy, Aidan is a great coach, and my classmates are kind and respectful. I belive I'll be going to Atlas Jiu Jitsu for many years
Training good
My son is 4.5 and expressed interest in jiu jitsu. I found Atlas and emailed to set up a free trial class. My son has been obsessed ever since. Aidan is quick to respond, professional and courteous.
My boys recently joined Atlas Jiu Jitsu and I am incredibly impressed with the quality of instruction and the overall environment. The instructors are exceptionally patient and knowledgeable. They take the time to ensure that each student, regardless of skill level, understands the techniques and principles of jiu jitsu, and emphasize safety and proper technique. The academy itself is well-organized and maintains a welcoming atmosphere. The classes are structured in a way that fosters both learning and camaraderie among students.
So happy I found this place! It's a very encouraging, friendly environment and lots of fun!
Such an amazing instructor and students. I look forward to coming to the studio everyday. The advanced students are incredibly helpful and nonjudgmental, and Aidan goes out of his way to meet you where you’re at so you can build your discipline safely and confidently. The studio also offers classes for kids, which are engaging and build important skills like motor skills, confidence, discipline, and social engagement.
Great for anyone beginner friendly and very respectful
Very amazing coach teaches very well made me feel welcomed right when I began taking classes
If you’re looking for a friendly, professional, welcoming environment with an amazing coach who is invested in growth and creating a community feeling, then atlas is the place for you. I’m so happy I found Atlas, personally finding the right jiu jitsu gym has been extremely tough. It’s always hard to find somewhere to train where you feel comfortable and safe. Atlas is that place. Aidan is extremely knowledgeable, professional, nice and cares about each of his students personally. There is no better gym around! I’ve trained wrestling my whole life so I feel like I have an idea of what a good coach is, Aidan is 110% that coach that cares about his students progress, mentality and safety.
Atlas is a amazing gym with great instructors! Aidan is a super welcoming coach that will help anyone at any skill level improve their game.
Aidan is great, he is very patient with our 5 yo boy, he shows him the moves and help with with everything. Really the best coach!!
Aidan is a stand up guy and exactly what I was looking for in a jiu jitsu coach! I’m a Waltham local my whole 21 years and highly recommend to anyone any age or size!!
Great environment. The coach is really approachable and very knowledgeable. His techniques are very clean and technical.
It is never easy walking in to a new gym, but from the minute you get in, Aidan makes you feel confident and comfortable throughout each and every class. His level of instruction and his demeanor make each class challenging, but also fun leaving you with a constant state of wanting to learn more. I couldn't recommend Atlas more to anyone looking to get into BJJ. Everyone there is amazing.
I’ve known Professor Aiden since he was still a purple belt studying at the Hudson Valley Atlas locations. One of the most talented and dedicated practitioners I’ve ever met. Patient and good natured as a teacher. 10/10, can’t recommend this school enough!
Fantastic people and an incredible environment. No better place to meet your goals and make positive transformations regardless of skill level.
Atlas Jiu Jitsu is a place for both beginners, experts, and everything in between. Aidan is top class in both his martial arts experience and character. If you’ve been training for years and looking to take the next step, or interesting in simply learning more about BJJ; I would highly recommend considering this business.
“Atlas is Family”. I’m going on a decade of training BJJ. I have had to move academies a few times because I have moved states multiple times in the past few years. Atlas is one of the best places that I have had the privilege to train at. Super friendly, positive and welcoming environment with top notch instruction and plenty of support to keep you going on this challenging journey of BJJ. Putting all that good stuff aside, a few years ago, I found myself unemployed. And it was through Atlas, that I was able to land a solid job. When I was telling the black belt who helped me land the job how much I appreciated the help, he replied “No need. Atlas is Family”. The BJJ was great. But I will never forget this place because of that moment right there.
Top tier instructor, worth every minute of your time.
Aiden is an amazing instructor and Atlas always instills hard work and fun. Come check it out!
Hands down one of the best coaches you can find in the area
Awesome jiu jitsu academy with a great coach. I’ve known Aidan since I first started BJJ and can confidently say he’s one of the best coaches I’ve ever trained under. He would always take the time to explain techniques and offer advice to improve my performance. I would recommend his academy to anyone interested in learning this awesome martial art.
Awesome instructor! A lot of knowledge, and skill to share.
Atlas Jiu Jitsu was a great place to learn! The coaching staff and other members were very kind and made learning the new sport fun and enjoyable. I'd recommend for anyone who wants to learn Jiu Jitsu.
Aidan is Hands down the BEST Jiu Jitsu Instructor in the area.
This is a most professional academy with great structure and knowledgeable instructors. The staff and students conducted themselves professionally and the gym was kept clean and orderly. Aidan is a true professional with a proven record. I highly recommend.
I’ve known Aidan for a few years now and I can say with out a doubt he’s not only one of the best jiujitsu practitioners I’ve ever met but also one of the best mentors I’ve had in my life. He’s a true leader and not only a great person to look up to but someone who will take you in and make you feel comfortable fast! Aidan is humble and is all ears when anyone has any type of question or comment during or after class! He might guillotine you at some point in time but you’ll have a smile on your face I promise you that!
Great instruction by an awesome professor. I’ve had the opportunity to know Aiden from when he was a blue belt. He’s always been very serious about Jiu Jitsu and has helped many on their own Jiu Jitsu journey. Just an all around great guy. Definitely worth dropping in and checking out the gym. Osss.
Fortunate enough to be training partners with the head coach for years before he opened his own place and I can Confidently say the guy SUPER knows his stuff. Humble, patient, attentive coaching and more than willing to go above and beyond for his students. Exceptional coaching, so do yourself a favor AND COME TRAIN!!!!
Atlas is as good as it gets when it comes to BJJ schools. Aidan is a great teacher, very easy to talk to and learn from.
Aidan is an excellent coach. He's amazing at articulating the tiniest details that will help even the newest student grasp difficult concepts. Highly recommended!!
I started jiujitsu couple of years before Professor Aiden so I had the privilege of watching Aiden go from a beginner in jiujitsu to a dedicated jiujitsu practitioner to an accomplished jiujitsu competitor. I saw him assisting kids class to heading up kids class to teaching adult class and coaching hi level competitors. As a jiujitsu professor he is patient and knowledgeable. He I a good teacher for kids, adult hobbyists and high level competitors. Anyone who is living in the Waltham, MA area is lucky to have Aiden teaching jiujitsu near them. Try Atlas Jiujitsu Waltham and experience it for yourself.
I can't speak highly enough about my experience at Atlas Jiu Jitsu thanks to the incredible coaching provided by Coach Aidan, he is a true master.
Brazilian jiu jitsu is a great way to get a workout, develop new skills, and meet new people. If you are interested in the sport, a high quality gym and coach are crucial. I highly recommend this place for all levels of experience, including total beginners. I have been training jiu jitsu with Aiden for six years. He is a skilled, dedicated athlete and an excellent coach. He fosters a welcoming atmosphere for athletes of all types. This is the place to go.
Aidan is a great coach! He creates a very welcoming environment. Definitely check out Atlas if you’re interested in starting jiu jitsu.
If you’re trying to learn actual jui jistu wether it be for competition, self defense, fitness or a combination Atlas is the place. The environment is great, the technique taught is effective and the head instructor is a stud and knows his stuff.
Joining Atlas was one of the best choices I’ve ever made. It’s the place to go no matter what kind of day you’re having. You always leave feeling like you’ve accomplished something. That is thanks to the unmatched coaching and supportive teammates. Atlas is a family and I will always proudly represent and recommend to anyone!
I have been training at Atlas for a few years now and the experience has been unbelievable! From the first day I have been treated like part of the team, Aidan and the rest of the coaching team are passionate about the sport and helping others grow. No other place I’d rather train
From NY to MA Atlas will always be great ❤️

Aidan is the best ever
I’ve been training with Atlas BJJ for several years and can confidently say that their instruction is world class! Aidan is an awesome Jiu jitsu instructor for any skill level. Whether you're a beginner looking to give BJJ a try, or an expert looking to take your game to the next level, Atlas is the way to go!
Aidan is the real deal. Great guy and great coach!
The owner is an amazing coach and mentor for both adults and children! While rolling with him, he caters his intensity to your current BJJ level and will give you tips and tricks on what to do in that same situation for future rolls. Overall, he has A LOT of knowledge to share with those willing to be patient in the process of learning!
I’ve trained with Aidan for four years in Albany, New York. Aidan’s knowledge of jiujitsu is endless and his ability to share that knowledge with people of all skill levels is unmatched. His passion for the sport, and his commitment to his gym and his students make this one of the best places to train.
Aidan is a wonderful coach who patiently coaches the class through each move and makes it feel warm to be welcomed into the atlas family
Aidan is a great teacher. He breaks down the complicated moves into simple and key steps which makes it very easy to learn. He has his own tiny modifications or tips that can really boost one’s BJJ game !!
Aidan is a great coach. Highly recommend anyone local to the area who is looking for a jiu jitsu gym, to join Atlas. Very welcoming to newcomers. Just do it!
Jiu jitsu is an amazing sport and hobby, but just like anything, your experience with it can be extremely dependent on who is teaching you. That's why I wholeheartedly recommend that anyone and everyone interested should come here. The head instructor Aidan is not only masterful with his craft, but his teaching style is patient and digestible at every step of the way. I have only ever had positive interactions with Aidan, and even in the face of difficult situations he shows remarkable poise and quick decision making. Atlas Waltham is a top-notch institution.
Aidan at Atlas Jiu-Jitsu Waltham is super knowledgeable and extremely welcoming!! Classes are always a great time! I definitely recommend this place!!
Started training with Aidan back when he was in Albany. He's an amazing friend, professor, competitor, and coach. only has he helped my jiu jitsu game improve overall but he's also helped my mma ground game improve. Overall Aidan is great person to train with and learn from no matter how much experience you have or whatever level of belt you are.
All of my experiences with Aidan have been extremely positive. I had no experience in BJJ coming in but Aidan was always very helpful and approachable. Definitely go give Atlas a shot.
I was able to train under Aiden in Albany and he is one of the kindest, coolest and most knowledgeable people I have ever met. He is always amazing to talk to on and off the mats.
Aidan sericolo is an incredibly hard working and dedicated coach who is invested in your success. He runs A great class would recommend for anyone in the area
Atlas Jiujitsu changed my life from the moment I stepped through their doors. Professor Aidan Sericolo was one of the reasons it changed for the better. Not only did I better myself physically with his help but mentally as well.
Been with Atlas for about four years, I love the family oriented environment. The professor and other coaches give great step by step instruction of techniques and give you the right time frame to understand the mechanics of each move.
This is more than just a gym, it is a welcoming family environment! For those looking to get into BJJ or if you need to switch gyms, you cannot go wrong with Atlas Waltham. Professor Aidan comes from a strong lineage, and you will for sure get a true BJJ learning and training experience. He is great at simplifying something that may be hard to understand. If you are considering joining, just go and you will be better for it!!
Aidan and Anthony are the best coaches. Atlas athletes’ are most friendly and nice people. Best place to learn and roll jiujitsu. Safe and fun. However, worst place to be cocky. Everyone is nice and gentle. I really think everyone should try that good energy and experience in Atlas like I have now.
One of the best jui jitsu spots I have been too. Both professor Ed and Aidan are hard working individuals who look out for others and built a very excellent establishment. They both are courageous and welcoming. They are genuinely there to look out for others and not just themselves.
Aidan is by far one of the best instructors I’ve ever had. His knowledge of BJJ is extensive but more importantly his ability to walk you through moves and explain the finer details is something that’s helped me the most. I cannot recommend learning from him enough!
First time doing jiujitsu after being a 3 sport athlete my whole life. Was pretty nervous to step into it new at 34 years old. After meeting Aiden and doing my first class I quickly realized I should have done this a long time ago. Atlas is a great environment where everyone helps to get each other better no matter the size, age, experience. If you're thinking about starting something new like I did I highly recommend Atlas. Aiden is one of the best coaches I've had in any sport in my 25+ years competing in football, hockey and baseball.
Came with an open mind. Never have done any martial arts or combat sports before. If you need to get in shape or pick up another hobby or have any interest getting started in martial arts or combat sports this is a great place to start! Come in and join us! Please! Life changing for myself!
Atlas Jiu-Jitsu is an awesome place to train Jiu-Jitsu. Aidan is a world class instructor, super friendly and so helpful! The group of people that train here are also great! Super friendly and all around good people. I've trained at multiple different Jiu-Jitsu Academies across the country and I would 100% recommend Atlas to anyone in the area.
As someone brand new to this sport, I had a lot of nerves coming into this but Coach Aidan assured me that he and the team takes care of each other and that has held up to be true. The whole experience has been great. Straight forward lessons, good amount of attention, low pressure - the type of environment that has encouraged me to stay consistent, stay open, work hard, and have fun.
This is a great gym that is open to everyone of all skill levels. I would recommend this gym to everyone who wants to learn Brazilian Jiu Jitsu
