“A leader is best when people barely know they exist.

when their work is done and their aim fulfilled,

then the people will say: we did it ourselves.”

PROGRAM FACILITATORS

Max Fusaro, RYT 500

HYR owner, teacher & Training facilitator

Max began his yoga journey at a crossroads in his life, at rehab in 2017, and he couldn’t be more grateful to have found this yoga practice and HYR community shortly after. They picked him up from the scrap heap of life and placed him on a purposeful path of service. Max currently teaches at Hot Yoga Revolution, is an active leader in the local recovery community, and teaches yoga to children and adults with disabilities in his free time. Max has found countless ways to incorporate what he’s learned in yoga teacher training into what he’s most passionate about. He is humbled and excited to help you do the same.

Max completed his 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training at Hot Yoga Revolution and has had a passion for learning ever since. He completed his 300 Hour Yoga Teacher Training with Lit From Within Yoga earning him the designation of RYT 500.

In addition to receiving his RYT 500, Max has continued to learn completing an additional 200+ hours of training in various areas with Patrick Beach and Carling Harps of the Awakening Yoga Academy and the Baptiste Institute completing Level training with Baron Baptiste, the Art of Assisting Course, BPY Teacher Course and more.

Dana Bartone, RYT 500

HYR Owner, Teacher & training facilitator

Dana was introduced to yoga as a child through her family who practiced yoga, meditation, and mindfulness in their home. Her family has spent 40+ years influenced by the teachings and healing practices of Margabandhu Martarano, director of the Integral Yoga Institute of New Jersey, who to this day continues to mentor Dana.

In 2018, after receiving her master’s degree in speech-language pathology, Dana began working full time in the clinical hospital setting. During this hectic time of her life, Dana discovered the hot power vinyasa style of the practice where she found a sense of balance and stability. Knowing the impact yoga had on her life, Dana was eager to share it with others and chose to begin her training journey. She completed her 200 hour Baptiste inspired yoga teacher training and soon after continued on to complete a leadership focused 300 hour yoga teacher training.

Since receiving her 500 hour RYT certification, she has gone on to learn from Awakening Yoga Academy founders, Patrick Beach and Carling Harps, in areas of awakening yoga practices, body reading techniques, and mobility, and is soon to complete yin yoga training with Naomi Fox. 

Dana is a leader at heart who loves and values this practice in all its forms. Yoga has helped her transform her life in countless ways and she is excited and honored to lead this training and watch others grow!
