Join us for one of the most exciting events of the year as we celebrate the hard work, dedication, and accomplishments of our students at our Fall Belt Promotion Ceremony!

This promotion day will feature numerous belt advancements, including several major promotions. We are especially excited to announce that Professor Steve Bongiorno of South Jersey BJJ will be traveling down to Duncan MMA to award two Black Belt promotions to Coach Brian Duncan and Shane Vaughn.

In addition, we expect to award multiple BJJ promotions throughout the academy, including several Blue Belts and a Purple Belt.

Please wear your Gi if you plan to join us during the ceremony.

While students who are unable to attend can receive promotions during a later regular class, there is something truly special about being promoted in front of your teammates, coaches, family, and the entire Duncan MMA community. Promotion day is always one of the most memorable and exciting events of the year.
