How does a guy go from jumping rope to performing for an NBA halftime show? For Peter, it was a unique and interesting journey to say the least.
Peter began jumping rope in 1987 as part of a new program offered at his elementary school in Juneau, Alaska. After 2 hard years of practice, Peter won his first world championship in 3rd grade. The following 8 years offered numerous opportunities to travel, teach, perform and compete in numerous places throughout the world. During this time he also garnered an additional 6 world championships, as well as solidifying an already strong passion and enjoyment for rope skipping.

Early 1995: in spite of the success and talent that Peter had achieved up to this point, something was missing. This was when God finally got a hold of Peter’s life. He had grown up in a denominational church, but was never confronted with the fact that he needed a personal relationship with Christ. Peter’s early successes were marred with low self-esteem and nothing that he could really trust in. After getting saved, the remaining years in school were spent studying hard and allowing God to begin the mending process in his life.

Peter began to realize God’s call in his life. Not only was rope skipping an entertaining event, but God could use it to reach people for Jesus. Much time was spent studying how to effectively minister to children and youth through the talent that he’d been given.

In 2004 Peter received his Ministerial license through Church on the Move/Willie George Ministries. He also became an approved Upward Unlimited speaker and unofficially set the world record for the most jumps in one minute on a unicycle at over 220.

Over the last few years, the Rope Masters program has strengthened from a heartfelt attempt at entertainment into one of the best programs currently available. Peter is continuing to grow in his knowledge of ministry and has a great expectation for what God is going to do through him in the years to come.

Peter has performed in many countries, including: Australia, British Virgin Islands, Canada, Denmark, France, Germany, Mexico, Peru and Sweden. He has also performed in almost every state in the U.S. as well as special performances at such venues as: Tivoli Gardens in Denmark, Sea World, Disney Land, Disney World and a Seattle Supersonics vs. Boston Celtics halftime show.
