South Jersey's home for world-class instruction in Boxing, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, CrossFit, Kids Jiu-Jitsu, Muay Thai Kickboxing, Summer Camp, and Women Only Boot Camp! Because we offer group and private classes for every age, we have numerous families who make training at Beacon Mixed Martial Arts a part of their healthy lifestyle.
All of our programs have classes designed specifically with beginners in mind, where the focus is on the fundamentals and self-defense. In fact, our beginner classes are some of our most well-attended classes; even our Black Belts take them! Though still beginner-friendly, our all-levels classes are more challenging from both a physical and mental standpoint.

Still not convinced? We get it. We appreciate you taking the time to see if Beacon Mixed Martial Arts is the right place for you. But please, don't take our word for it. Here's what some of your neighbors have to say about their experience with our expert staff and our clean, safe, and friendly training environment at Beacon Mixed Martial Arts.
The following are our most Frequently Asked Questions. As they say, there is no such thing as a stupid question. A: A clean, safe training environment and a knowledgeable staff, who is able to articulate their knowledge in a professional manner. Q: Do I need to have experience? A: Absolutely not! Borrow from our coaches' 120+ years of collective experience to build a lasting foundation in authentic, practical, and effective martial arts.
In the worlds of martial arts, combat sports, and fitness, no one person can do it alone. At Beacon MMA, our past, our present, and our futures are intertwined with those who came before us, those who believed in us when we didn't know how to believe, and those who gave us the tools to carve our own paths in the pursuit of greatness.
If you find yourself in a situation where your spouse is flat out telling you that you are training too much, here's what they're likely really saying, "I need you." It's a little open-ended, I know. No one likes coming home from work and feeling like they now have to cook, clean, feed the kids, walk the dog, whatever.
In the second installment of our Guided Shadowboxing series, Coach Peach takes you through the same Muay Thai fundamentals that are taught in everything from our beginner classes to our fight team's closed workouts. In volume 4, I demonstrate 3 additional solo drills you can literally do anywhere - the gym, a hotel room, in quarantine, etc, etc.

Beautiful space and expert instruction. Beacon MMA and Fitness is a great place to train and work out. Their facility is spacious and clean. The equipment is great for lifting and cross fit. I specifically came for the Jiu jitsu class, which had a friendly and welcoming atmosphere. I came away with some great techniques and was instantly welcomed by everyone at the gym. The coach gives everyone great personal instruction and is very patient in explaining the details of each move. I highly recommend this gym.

I came to Beacon while already experiencing two prior MMA schools/gyms and they didn’t even come close to the kind of experience I had at Beacon MMA. Coach Kirby was the first instructor I met with and he made me feel comfortable enough to sign up for a year during Covid 😁 (taught me the triangle on my first day). Unlike my two prior experiences with MMA gyms, I instantly recognized the high level students/instructors at Beacon. I am a person that has played sports my entire life so I have always relied on my athleticism over technique (probably way too much). That being said the high level

I was hesitant to join this gym, but I am so glad that I did. Most of my back pain is gone. The Muay Thai classes have helped me a lot with the tightness and pain in my upper back. I’ve been going for just over a month now and couldn’t be happier.
The coaches are great and work are always willing to help. Great place.

One of the best MMA gyms in the Philly/South Jersey area. I personally trained with Coach Bob Peach since 2005 (Daddis MMA), and was pleased to reconnect with him again in 2021. This facility boasts a full mat space for partner drills, plenty of heavybags and pads, a full cage and ring, an entire crossfit area, plus a massage/spa area. Great team, top-level curriculum, and proper covid precautions are taken before each class (temperature taken at the door, masks required, area and equipment meticulous sanitized). FIGHTTIPS approved!

This place is awesome! Coach Kirby and Coach Peach give great, in depth, and clear instruction. They're also extremely personable and have a genuine interest in your development. Beacon MMA is head and shoulders above any other MMA establishment I've been to. You will feel very comfortable while still feeling pushed/motivated at the same time. Highly recommend.

If you're looking for the perfect gym, the search begins and ends with Beacon. It doesn't matter if you're interested in competing, getting in shape, or just want to learn the intricacies of mixed martial arts. This school does it all.
I'm not going to pretend I wasn't nervous to start. What I learned was it didn't matter how naturally skilled I was or wasn't. What mattered was that I was surrounded by amazing instructors and wonderful men and women going through the same journey as me. Even the black and brown belts would actively go out of their way to help me get started.

I have been training here since 2015. Can't say enough about the staff. It can be very intimidating to walk into a room full of fighters but they really make you feel like family at this gym. Everyone is respectful and are always ready to give you advice for improvement. The coaches are super knowledgeable and it shows in the success of their fighters. Don't be afraid to come in and try it!
