CESAR RIOS

Owner
E-RYT 500 & YACEP
Cesar began his Yoga journey about 15 years ago, after an extensive background in professional dance (Ballet, Contemporary, Dance Theater) and Martial arts (Goju-Ryu). Cesar went on to study directly under three United States based choreographers: Randy Duncan, Jennifer Muller, and Carolyn Carson. He also either studied or worked with several acclaimed European choreographers as well (Boris Tonin Nikisch, Allex Olle, Wim Vandekeybus, Philippe Genty, Laura Aris, Blanca Li). His major areas of concentration were: Ballet (R.A.D) Modern (Release, Contact Improvisation) and Dance Theatre.
Cesar is a 500 & 800 hour Certified Dharma Yoga Teacher in Levels II, III & IV. He is devoted to absorb from his guru Sri Dharma Mittra, but he has trained with other renowned Yoga Teachers, among them Kino McGregor, Tim Feldmann, David Regelin, Philippe Askew and Peter Sterios. Yoga became as a natural transition into new territories for the mind and body, but also as a new way to help people achieve great physical condition and peace of mind. Cesar is certified in Vedic Thai Yoga Bodywork (Mat and Table) from renowned teacher Mukti, Michael Buck.
As owner and director of Naples Yoga Center, Cesar is committed to creating a space that is welcoming to everyone and that offers all levels of practice and styles of yoga from very beginners or first-timers to very advanced practitioners.
