DJ Manny Duke

Manny has been a force behind the decks and on stage since 2006! After earning his master's degree in Chicago, he packed his bags for the Twin Cities, where he opened his own successful running store in Uptown, Minneapolis, called Fit 1st Running. Whether he's helping a client hit a new PR at his shop or making sure a wedding couple has the best night of their lives, Manny's passion is simple: helping people reach their goals while having an absolute blast! When he's not busy running his store or DJing hundreds of weddings, you can find him commanding the energy at monthly club residencies. He even recently released his own solo record and celebrated with a launch party at the legendary First Avenue's 7th Street Entry.

“The vibes at our wedding were strong, and that is thanks to our incredible DJ, Manny. He curated a perfect cocktail hour and dinner playlist based on a list of our favorite bands, and the dance floor truly made all my elder millennial dance party dreams come true. We’ve gotten so many compliments on how fun and seamless the night felt. Manny was engaging, personable, and completely in tune with what we envisioned. We couldn’t have asked for a better soundtrack to one of the most meaningful nights of our lives.” -Megan Z, Oct 2025

”Manny DJ'd our event, and he was so kind, funny, and professional. He did an amazing job of reading the crowd and would switch up songs to get everyone back onto the dance floor. Something that was really important to us was playing music that guests of all ages could dance to throughout the night, and Manny made sure to focus on that. Once some of the older folks left, he switched it up and played music geared towards the younger crowd, and everyone loved it.” -Sam D, Aug 2024
