高銘長 Gao Ming-chang
Peter was a calm and peaceful individual, cherished by his many friends in the yoga community. A longtime member of OKIDO Yoga Taiwan, Peter first encountered TriYoga (TY) at the 2009 OKIDO Yoga Taiwan International Autumn Festival in Kaoshiung. This introduction was facilitated by TY teachers Rishi and Santoshi who were invited to the Autumn Festival by TY teacher Julia, then the secretary of OKIDO Yoga Taiwan. In 2010, Peter met Kaliji during a visit to TriYoga Center Santa Cruz with a group from OKIDO Yoga Taiwan, led by Julia. Over the years, Peter participated in many TriYoga programs in Taiwan with Kaliji and visiting TY teachers. In 2018, he was certified as a TriYoga Basics teacher. Peter also had the opportunity to meet Sri Ganapathy Sachchidananda Swamiji during Sri Swamiji's visit to Taipei in 2017 and attended the Music for Meditation concert. Peter's warmth and dedication to yoga will be remembered fondly.
