I’m Nico Daurio—an international yoga teacher and devoted practitioner of this sacred spiritual science.
From a young age, I felt a deep pull toward meditation, nature, and selfless service. At 18, I stepped into my first yoga class and something clicked.
I went on to study Public Health at the Johns Hopkins University driven by a desire to heal the world. After a series of challenges in 2020, I realized true change in healing begins within. I committed myself to vegetarianism, daily yoga practice, and study of spirituality. I rapidly healed my body and mind through practicing yoga and embodying it as a lifestyle.
Soon after graduating college, I followed an inner calling to India, where I immersed myself in classical Hatha-Raja Yoga during my first teacher training in Rishikesh. That pilgrimage was just the beginning.
Since then, I’ve been living, studying, and teaching yoga across the world—in Miami, Mexico City, and now New York City, where I’m completing my 500-hour advanced training under the legendary Sri Dharma Mittra.
My classes weave together the strength of Hatha-Raja Yoga, the devotion of Bhakti Yoga, and the transformative power of mantra, breathwork, meditation, and sacred scripture. I don’t just teach poses—I offer yoga as the science of self realization and liberation.
Whether you’re stepping onto the mat for the first time or returning home to your inner self, I’m here to hold space for your growth. My mission is to support your journey toward strength, clarity, joy, and devotion—on and off the mat!
This path has changed my life and my hope is that it transforms yours too.
