Caio is a dedicated practitioner with over 10 years of experience and is honored to be certified by Manju Pattabhi Jois—eldest son of Sri K. Pattabhi Jois, the globally recognized father of Astanga Yoga, to teach both the Primary and Intermediate Series of the Traditional Astanga Yoga System.

Caio has participated in Manju Pattabhi Jois teacher trainings in 2023, 2024, and 2025. Also, Caio completed his studies and training of Primary and Intermediate Series in the Mysore room for two and a half years (2023-2025) apprenticing as a teacher assistant under teachings and guidance from Christina Martini.

Caio began his journey with yoga in 2014 while seeking to improve his performance as a soccer player and student of International Business and Entrepreneurship at The University of Tampa. Inspired by the profound transformation yoga brought to his vitality and life, Caio now shares the practice with the sincere intention of preserving and transmitting the teachings as passed down by the teachers he has studied with. He is committed to helping others experience the benefits of a consistent, daily practice.

His ongoing studies include Yoga Therapy, Ayurveda, Prāṇāyāma, Vedic Mantras, Yoga Philosophy, and Samskrta. Recently, Caio was accepted into ASP 1 Health Counselor Program at The Ayurvedic Institute to deepen his studies in Ayurveda through Vīhāra Cikitsā (lifestyle & behavioral therapy), Ahara (food), & Samskrta with Dr. Vasant Lad.

When he’s not practicing yoga, chanting, or studying, Caio devotes time to seva (selfless service), enjoys quality moments with his family, sings joyfully at the Hanuman Maui Temple, and nourishes himself with Ayurvedic meals.
