Welcome to the Harris Academy Website! My name is Roy Harris. I am the owner and chief instructor at the academy here in San Diego.

The focus of the martial arts training I provide at my academy is centered around self-defense, physical fitness, friendship and having fun with all three!

My academy offers group and private instruction in Bruce Lee’s Jeet Kune Do, Filipino Martial Arts, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, Kalis Ilustrisimo, Self-Defense, Mixed Martial Arts, Law Enforcement Defensive Tactics and Kettlebells. When you have some time, take a look at my extensive teaching and training background by clicking on the About link. I think you might be surprised !


The Jeet Kune Do classes focus on the use of various "international" training methods to help the student discover his or her strengths and weaknesses. These training methods are 1) Mixed and blended, 2) Compared and contrasted, and 3) pitted and combined. The end result is each practitioner finds his or her own path!
The Filipino Martial Arts classes focus on the Inosanto Blend of Kali. Here is a short list of training methods: Single stick, Double stick, single knife , double knife, stick and knife training and empty hand. Students learn, spar, develop, refine and play!
The Brazilian Jiu Jitsu classes involve learning how to escape from disadvantaged positions, controlling an assailant through the use of positioning, disengaging from an assailant when appropriate, and finishing an assailant with the use of position, leverage and efficient technique (e.g. wrist locks, arm locks, leg locks and carotid restraints, etc...).
The Fitness classes combine fitness elements from boxing, wrestling, calisthenics, plyometrics, Yoga, “Hard Style” kettlebell training and more. If you're looking for a full body workout, ya gotta attend this class!
The Competition classes focus on those elements needed for competing in local, national and international Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and Submission Wrestling Tournaments.
