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

Each year, Caio deepens his spiritual practice through parampara, studying directly with Christina Martini, Manju P. Jois and Sathu G. Jois. His previous teacher was Jessica Lynne Trese.

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 his senior and master teachers. 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 Sanskrit. 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.
