What are people saying about yoga with Peter?

“Peter’s yin/restorative class was my reintroduction to yoga after being away from in-studio practice due to the pandemic. His warm and welcoming nature, gentle and soothing voice, combined with a perfect balance of well-paced, detailed instruction and quiet reminded me of what a gift yoga has been to my life. I look forward to Peter’s class each week!” – Terry B.
 
“If you like Yin Yoga you will love Peter’s class. I have taken many yin classes and Peter really gets it. We hold our poses till we melt into it and he offers many ways to hold the pose. One of the things he says is ‘when I look out at you and I see people holding the pose differently it makes me happy.’ That is the kind of man he is, caring and really knows his craft.” Lew G.
 
“This thing works! I can pick things up from the floor, I can squat, I can bend over with much ease. I couldn’t do that before. The body aches in the morning are gone. The lower back pains are gone. There is a significant difference from where I started. I feel the difference and it is significant!” – Erkan B.
 
I humbly owe you like 1000 apologies for never understanding just how much yoga can change your perspective on the body and all other exercise in general. Everything feels so much better. It makes my bike workouts so much more satisfying too.” – Scott W.
 
Yoga with Peter is the best part of the day.” – Simge B.
 
As a Black Belt in Krav Maga Peter brings a unique perspective to his Yin Yoga classes. He is focused on what the body and mind require to function optimally in high stress physical and mental situations. I am truly grateful for the increased flexibility, injury prevention / healing and overall wellness his teachings have afforded me. Thank you Peter!”  –Jack G.
 

I’ve been doing the exercises you gave me faithfully every day… and I can swear that I do feel better! The shooting pain in my left arm that was giving me trouble has not happened since you told me how to do it. I’ve given up on the idea of surgery for carpal tunnel syndrome now.” –Nick N.

“Initially I was not a fan of Yoga AT ALL. But since it was to enhance my Krav training, along with my shoulder pains and recently starting a PhD program (so much anxiety), the stretches and mind-clearing techniques were much needed! I feel better walking into tough situations, calming myself and working through them. Krav training feels better too – the Yoga classes helped with shaping the mindset to learn a lot in a little time in the All-Level noon classes! They also helped me with better establishing my base in fight stances and moving around.  I felt like a lopsided penguin during [Krav Maga] training, not so much anymore. I really enjoyed the program!” – Anon.

“I really enjoyed my time at yoga. I thought as a teacher you were excellent. You explained the poses well as we were doing them, highlighted what area or muscle groups should be impacted so that I had a target, and as someone who has more than one injury, I really appreciated that you explained a multitude of ways to modify different poses so that I could participate without being in pain or further exacerbating my injuries. On the other side of that, you also gave modifications so that I could get a better stretch in when I had a bit more flexibility. And while I never threw a block at you, I appreciated that it was an option for getting your attention should I have required your assistance. I had never done yoga before, so I did not really have any expectations. My intention was to get a really good stretch in and learn some yoga poses that would be particularly helpful for me so that I could do them at home, and the classes definitely met those intentions. My overall well-being and maintenance is better for having learned something new.” – Emily R.

My hips and back actually felt great after class.” – Alexis M.

You’ve been doing this for a while, haven’t you?” – Anon.

“Awesome class man hips already feel better.” – Jordan H.

“I have practiced yoga in many styles with many instructors, but Yin yoga with Peter is my favorite by far. He is both professional and also warm and friendly, very educated on the subject and also a natural yogi. One of the healthiest feeling and calmest moments for me each week is stepping out of Peter’s yoga class.” – Charlie S.

“I’ve had many Yoga experiences. This was Exceptional. Thank You Sir.” – Thomas R.
