Over decades, Peter has immersed himself in a wide array of mindfulness practices—from breathwork to meditation, chanting to fasting, and various energy and bodywork techniques and many intensives and retreats. This exploration has fueled his commitment to sharing the essence of presence, discipline, self-inquiry, and joy through his music. Breathwork has become integral to his daily routine, serving as a cornerstone for cleansing, rejuvenation, and healing.
Peter Kater, a Grammy-winning and multi-platinum-selling pianist/composer, has been a trailblazer in contemporary instrumental music for over four decades. His rich and diverse compositions have earned him 12 Grammy Award nominations and 2 wins, alongside numerous other accolades. With over 70 acclaimed recordings and scores for over 100 TV and film productions, Peter's music spans genres and reaches global audiences—from prestigious venues like the Olympics, Kennedy Center, and Carnegie Hall to healing spaces worldwide. He is renowned for groundbreaking collaborations with artists such as R. Carlos Nakai, Nawang Khechog, Dominic Miller, and Snatam Kaur. An avid environmentalist and humanitarian, Peter is honored to have received the Environment Leadership Award from the United Nations. His extensive catalog of over 1200 compositions garners over 20 million streams monthly, while his latest guided breathwork series, SPIRITUS (for beginners) and INTIMUS (for couples), are widely available, embodying his belief that "every breath is a new beginning."
Jeremy and Melanie Roske
Melanie and Jeremy form a dynamic partnership, blending compassion, wisdom, and transformation in their collaborative work. Melanie, a radiant embodiment of love, and Jeremy, a heart-opening sound healer, create a nurturing environment where individuals can explore their innate wisdom for self-healing. Drawing from a diverse array of practices including Breathwork, Reiki, sound healing, meditation, and somatic techniques, they guide with a profound depth of holistic understanding. Their synergy is rooted in a sacred union that emanates a powerful resonance, fostering deep healing and personal growth. Ahanah Breathwork, their holistic Yin approach, invites you to reconnect with your inner self through conscious breathing and harmonic frequencies. This practice gently unfolds the body’s energy pathways, allowing buried emotions, physical tension, and outdated beliefs to surface and be released. This transformative experience facilitates profound insights and shifts, offering a journey of self-discovery and equilibrium restoration.
