Denio Di Lascio
Denio first encountered Hatha Yoga in Brazil in the early 2000s through the DeRose Method. A lifelong surfer, his passion for the ocean led to a connection with fellow Canadian surfer and yogi, Eoin Finn, from the West Coast. Through Finn’s DVDs, he explored the Blissology philosophy and began to embrace the local style of yoga practice.
Before settling in Port Moody, Denio built a career as an executive in large corporations and later as an entrepreneur, developing educational games for children across South and North America, and Europe. Over a decade ago, he opened the Kumon franchise in Port Moody, where he has worked with more than a thousand families and kids in the community.
A proud father of three adult children, he spends his time outside the classroom and yoga studio walking the dog or braving the cold waters of Buntzen Lake with his friend. As a certified Yoga Teacher Training graduate, he is grateful to have been part of the Kushala Yoga community for the past several years.
