ABOUT PETER
Peter Liciaga is a martial arts master teacher, author, speaker, and founder of the Living Strong Community, a personal growth platform dedicated to helping individuals build strength of character, clarity of purpose, and meaningful connection.
For over 25 years, Peter has served families at Dinoto Karate Center — now known as Action Karate Mt. Laurel — where he helps children, parents, and grandparents develop confidence, discipline, and leadership through martial arts training. His work blends practical life skills with timeless principles of respect, resilience, and personal responsibility.
Raised in the South Bronx and later traveling internationally as a professional performer, Peter brings a rare combination of grit, creativity, and real-world experience to everything he does. That journey shaped his belief that defining moments — both challenging and triumphant — are opportunities to grow stronger.
Through his books, speaking engagements, local partnerships, and the Living Strong Community, Peter works to unite people around one simple idea: strength is built daily — mentally, emotionally, spiritually, and physically.
Whether he’s on the mat, on stage, or in conversation with a local business owner, Peter’s mission remains the same: help people Live Strong and take meaningful action in their lives and communities.
Greetings, friends and community!
I’m Peter Liciaga, and I want to take a moment to share something close to my heart—Living Strong Projects LLC. It’s not just a company; it’s a movement dedicated to empowering communities, families, and individuals. From the roots of my journey growing up in the South Bronx, to my time spent as a professional dancer, martial artist, and educator, I’ve always believed in the strength of people when they come together with purpose.
Living Strong Projects LLC exists because I truly believe that we, as individuals and as families, have the power to overcome any challenge and create a stronger, more connected world around us. This company is an extension of that belief, and it’s my mission to share these ideas in meaningful ways with people from all walks of life.
Our focus is simple yet powerful: empowerment. Through workshops, presentations, and inspiring literature—whether it’s children’s books, adult eBooks, PDFs, or even audio resources—we’re committed to creating opportunities for growth, resilience, and personal development in every community we touch.
But what makes this mission different? It’s the heart and soul of it all. At Living Strong Projects LLC, we’re not just working to impart knowledge—we’re building families, communities, and relationships. We want you to feel inspired, uplifted, and supported, whether you’re a parent looking to build stronger connections with your child, an educator seeking tools to inspire your students, or a local business ready to uplift the community around you.
Our Core Values:
- Community: At our core, we believe that when we come together, we are stronger. Whether through our family workshops or our youth development programs, everything we do is about strengthening bonds and building lasting connections.
- Family: Empowering families to thrive, not just survive, is at the heart of what we do. We know that families are the cornerstone of every strong community, and we help nurture their strength through every program we offer.
- Empowerment: Through storytelling, learning, and shared experiences, we empower people to rise above their circumstances and step into their full potential. Whether it’s a lesson in self-discipline, resilience, or leadership, our goal is to equip each individual with the tools to succeed.
- Living Strong: This isn’t just a phrase—it’s a lifestyle. Living strong means embracing challenges head-on, building strength from adversity, and helping others along the way. It’s about living a life that reflects your true strength and potential.
