Published Books:

"A Shaman's Tale" - an autobiographical narrative about one man’s journey to spiritual consciousness. This journey is not a religious or political one, but one that transcends dimension, space, and time. Through his encounters with the paranormal, the author explains how ego, belief systems and tenacity are social constructs that inhibit the individual from evolving to awareness and spiritual consciousness. Through candid and powerful anecdotes, he explains how any individual can come to know a spiritual truth that is not confined to conventional parameters. Alaniz does not scare us with the unknown; ironically he makes us understand the purpose of spirit manifestations and multi-dimensional beings. Richard teaches his readers the higher realms of spirituality to awaken their human potential and to eradicate fear to affect a positive outcome to life challenges. "Balik Meditation - Wellness to Mind-Body-Spirit" is a how-to book on meditation that offers an easy step-by-step guide for beginners and advanced practitioners regardless of age. Persons in search of good health and higher states of consciousness will discover deep spiritualism and healing energies within this book. Also included is an introduction to Psychospiritual Psychology, an applied method for the layperson and professional therapist who think outside the box to understand spirituality and its effect on mental health and human behavior.

I’m saddened to announce we have lost another great martial artist and senior in the art of Jeet Kune Do (JKD). Tim was a master of many various martial arts, however, as a First Generation JKD student his life focus was to preserve the original teachings of Bruce Lee’s JKD. He will be remembered by all who trained with him and were fortunate to call him friend.

The late Bob Bremer with his wife Sharon Bremer. I’m still in contact with Sharon who is in her early 90’s. She has shared many stories with me about her life with Bob and his transition from Kenpo Karate to Jeet June Do as well as his experiences with Bruce Lee.

Spirituality is an important part of what makes a warrior. Many have forgotten that aspect of their training. Going within to seek enlightenment takes years of practicing meditation as well as self discovery. For the highest of masters it takes many years of solitude to come to a knowing and to relinquish the ego.

The late great Bob Bremer performing a replacement side thrust kick. These photos were taken at Sifu Bob’s home for an article I was writing for the January 1993 cover issue of Inside Kung Fu titled “Remembering the Magic”. It was perhaps the first and only time Sifu Bob Bremer and Sifu Pete Jacobs came out of the shadows to shared their experiences with their teacher Bruce Lee during the China Town era of Jeet June Do. I was fortunate to train with both consistantly during the late 1970’s to 1989, then would return periodically while I was training at the Inosanto Kali Academy during the late 1980’s and 1990’s. Sifu Bob was known as the “China Town Ass Kicker” given to him by Bruce Lee.

I was sent this demo photos of my student Efrem Estrada and I did on a TV program featuring the Filipino martial arts back in early 1980’s. To be young again & full of energy is something I’ll have to look forward to in the next life. 🤣
