A yoga mogul was mysteriously found dead in his $3 million California mansion Monday afternoon.

Police said there were 'suspicious circumstances' surrounding the death of founder and former CEO of CorePower Yoga, Trevor Tice, but didn't explain what they thought may have been the cause, the New York Daily News reported.

Officers were called to his home in San Diego for a welfare check by someone who knew him.

Authorities said Tice is believed to have been living in the home by himself, but a person who knew him was conducting a welfare check when they found his body

'A person known to the occupant of the house went over there to check on him, they found a deceased person inside,' San Diego Police Lt Mike Holden told Fox 5 San Diego.

Holden said the 48-year-old is believed to have been living in the home by himself.

An autopsy will determine whether the death was a homicide, authorities said.

According to CorePower Yoga's website, there are more than 150 studios across the US.

Tice founded the company in 2002 after he suffered a mountain climbing accident and could no longer run, the Daily News reported.

The Denver-based company announced in August that a New York City location would open in 2017.
