Duncan Peak has been passionate about Yoga and Personal Development for much of his life, initially studying Hatha Yoga under the guidance of Paul Filden at age 16. At age 27 Duncan started working in the industry of Yoga and has recently risen to be among Australia’s most popular teachers, creating one of the busiest yoga and personal development schools in the country, Power Living Australia. A former Captain in the elite Parachute Regiment of the Army and competitive athlete, Duncan has devoted the last five years to teaching Power Yoga around the world and leads several teacher trainings, retreats and workshops in Australia every year.

Throughout his journey, Duncan has studied many major yogic traditions with teachers in India, England and the USA. Guided by a passionate personal practice, Duncan has continued to create his concept of Power Living for modern day people and taught Power Yoga in 6 countries last year alone. Duncan also enjoys a strong affiliation with friend and mentor Baron Baptiste, teaching at his world-renowned teacher training boot camps all over the globe.

Duncan humbly laughs as he tells you that he is a Power Living Teacher rather than a traditional Yoga teacher. Respectful of yogic traditions, his vision is “to continue to develop a practice that is inspired by Yoga but not restrained by tradition; a practice that is suitable for modern day lifestyles. I want to teach the basic essence of Yoga but in a way that makes it accessible in today’s world”. Duncan’s charismatic teaching speaks to the hearts and minds of his students, challenging and encouraging them to break out of their comfort zone and break free from the shackles of their mind to live powerfully. Duncan’s concept has attracted some of Australia’s best sporting personalities and celebrities as well of thousands of regular people, packing his studio each week.

Duncan’s classes are dynamic and challenging, both physically and mentally, and are delivered with his irreverent sense of humour and warm heart. Philosophically, Duncan holds his students accountable in their practice and tackles with a unique rawness, the issues and obstacles that prevent us from living a natural, loving and peaceful life. Each class is a powerful experience for any level of experience.
