Pete Holman was originally planning to follow in his parents’
footsteps as a psychologist until he was put off by the intensity
of what negative behaviour humans are capable of. Instead, he
decided to go down the path of physical therapy.
Developing a love affair with movement, motivation and mindset,
he found his skillset suited to martial arts, quickly becoming US
National Taekwondo Champion in addition to studying and
training.
He graduated from the University of Colorado with a Master’s of
Science degree in Physical Therapy in 1997 and went on to work at
the renowned Aspen Sports Medicine clinic prior to opening up his
own private practice in 2001. His client list has included Fortune
500 business owners from Jones Apparel, Progressive Insurance and
Fiji water, as well as Hollywood stars including Ed Bradley and
Kevin Costner.

international presenter, author and fitness product inventor living
in Aspen Colorado.
