Samuele and Lavinia are firstly dedicated yoga practitioners, committed to sharing the transformative power of yoga. Their journey is deeply rooted in tradition, experience, and continuous learning.
Samuele Piazza
Samuele’s yoga journey began at 17 when he met his first teacher, Yoge, at the Niketan Ashram in Trentino Alto Adige, Italy. Immersing himself in Raja Yoga, he studied Asana, Pranayama, and concentration. This experience shaped his discipline and detachment, making yoga his passion and way of life.
Eager to expand his knowledge, Samuele traveled extensively, completing courses in Hatha Yoga, Yoga for Children, and AcroYoga. Alongside Lavinia, he explored Patanjali’s teachings and modern Ashtanga Vinyasa, developing a dynamic Asana practice. In 2019, they turned to Iyengar Yoga, focusing on therapeutic alignment and energy balance. They are currently pursuing Iyengar Yoga certification to further deepen their expertise.

Lavinia Casaburo
Lavinia was immersed in movement from a young age, with both parents being physical education teachers. She discovered yoga in 1993, practicing with her mother at home using André Van Lysebeth’s book and attending children's yoga classes.
Though her career initially led her into videography and community building in London, the city’s fast-paced lifestyle drew her back to yoga for balance and peace.
She later met her first teacher, Gino Sansone, a dedicated instructor of Integral Yoga since 1986. Under his guidance, she deepened her understanding of yoga philosophy, Vedic teachings, and rituals, including the study of the Bhagavad Gita, Yoga Sutras, Upanishads, mantras, and holistic nutrition. In 2017, she met Samuele, and together they deepened their practice, exploring various yoga disciplines.
Lavinia has been devoted to yoga for many years, studying Indian texts and mantras with curiosity. Like Samuele, she is dedicated to Iyengar Yoga, regularly attending advanced training with Senior Teachers across Europe and beyond.
