Max found yoga in 2001 soon after moving to Pittsburgh from Italy. After many
years of hard core mountain biking, his knees decided they needed some
TLC. After a few physical therapy sessions it was suggested he try yoga
to keep his legs in shape and to stretch his muscles. Then, after 6 months
of yoga classes at the local gym Max starting noticing how much better he
felt after each class. This is when the light bulb went off in his brain and his
journey truly began.
Max currently has a weekly home practice and practices with some of his
favorite teachers including; Jill Cummings, Richard Gartner, Maggie Pietri-
Boria and Alana Deloge. He has enjoyed attended workshops with Kino
McGregor, Doug Keller and other esteemed teachers.
After couple of years of careful time management and planning (thanks to his
wife Jennifer), he was finally able to make the time for yoga teacher training.
He is attending the YogaWorks 200-hour teacher training with Anna Gilbert
Zupon at BYS. He is projected to complete the training in July 2013.
When not on his mat, you can find him at his day job as a software engineer
at the University of Pittsburgh, riding is mountain bike all around the ‘burgh,
tasting good wines and delicious food, cooking, reading, and last but most
important, spending time with his wife Jennifer and two sons Alessandro and
Roberto.
