Since an early age, Max felt attracted and influenced by the vision and teaching of Mystics, Masters and Yogis like Rumi, J.Krishnamurti, G.I. Gurdjieff, R. Tagore and P. Yogananda, among others, which shaped the spiritual path to follow.

By the age of 20, he was traveling to India where he spent several years in the Osho Rajneesh Ashram, participating in many workshops, seminars and meditations influenced by the Eastern and Western spiritual traditions, deepening the practice in the Jnan, Bhakti and Karma branches of Yoga.

Extensive travels throughout India, Nepal, Sri Lanka, the Middle East, North Africa as well as the Americas, Australia and Europe brought him in contact with different spiritual paths widening the spectrum of ways in the quest of Human Consciousness Growth.

In the middle 90's, he  co-founded and contributed in the creation and realization of Samasati Nature Retreat, a Sustainable Ecological project in the South Caribbean rain-forest of Costa Rica where Workshops, Retreats, Seminars and Teacher Training Programs have been held since.

Inspired by gifted teachers like Glenn Black among others, in the last 18 years, he ventured into the journey of the practice and study of Hatha Yoga, experiencing different styles like Ashtanga, Iyengar, Kundalini, and Yin. He attended classes, retreats and teacher trainings in Costa Rica, U.S., Italy and Australia where he got certified in the oldest school of Byron Bay under the guidance of John Ogilvie.

Max currently teaches YTT in Costa Rica, Italy and the US. He combines a wide repertoire of Asanas and sequencing with Pranayama, Meditations, talks... and fun.​

Elisa Fantini’s yoga journey began in 2004, first as a practitioner, and then as a teacher.

Since a very young age she has had an interest in dance in its many facets, from ballet to rhythmic gymnastics and modern dance. This exploration reflects her constant search for the ideal way for the body and inner self to express themselves. But it is only through the encounter with the practice of yoga that her search has found its perfect form.

Elisa has always been guided by a strong interest in human nature, that lies at the centre of her quest. Fascinated by oriental philosophy and western psychology, in 2010 she got a diploma in Yoga Counselling, but she then chose to focus exclusively on yoga, which she found to be her ideal means of establishing contact with people. She was instructed by several teachers in different styles (including Hatha Yoga, Iyengar Yoga and Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga). In her more recent explorations, she has begun to complement a Yang practice, more muscular and energetic, with a Yin practice, more subtle and gentle, which she got to know in Sweden, thanks to Biff Mithoefer’s Yin Yoga Teacher Training course.

Research is an essential part of Elisa’s life, and she undertakes it with the curiosity and the playful, childlike enthusiasm of a person who is still eager to explore the world. She finds her greatest joy in moving, dancing barefoot and with her eyes closed, and letting her body speak freely and with energy.

She is currently a member of the Vayu Association of Forlì, where she teaches weekly yoga classes.
