Jon Cagas’ background in both dance and sports first attracted Jon to the grace and athleticism of Ashtanga Yoga. Jon earned his Master's degree in Physical Education and Bachelor's degree in Sports Science (1999) from the UP College of Human Kinetics in Diliman. As a physical education instructor at the University of the Philippines and assistant coach of a varsity team, Jon was instrumental in bringing yoga to the academic community.

In August 2007, Jon was certified to teach yoga after completing an intensive training, an advanced course in pranayama and yoga philosophy at the Centered Yoga Institute at Yoga Thailand. In 2008, Jon spent 4 months in India to study at the K.P. Jois Ashtanga Yoga Institute in Mysore, the Sivananda Yoga Ashram in Neyyar Dam and the Kaivalyadham Yoga Institute in Lonavla, where he completed a one-month certificate course on pranayama. Jon also studied traditional Ayurvedic massage.
