And with that realization Peter began using a number of different modalities to communicate a simple message of finding connection. Whether the entry point is yoga, WHM, body sculpting, or meditation we can all untap the deeper practice the body yearns for. Seeing how this method has had a profound effect on people from all walks of life, Peter believes it’s his responsibility to share what he has learned. Find him at www.ignitesadhana.com
