Meet Shayne Mastriano

‘Ignite Fire Danceʼ was founded in 2013 by Shayne Mastriano after training shortly under the first fire dancer to ever perform for Cirque Du Soleil. Since then, heʼs performed as a half time performer for the San Fransisco 49erʼs and is currently developing and collecting a team of professional fire dancers, fire breathers, and variety acts for entertaining special events.

Together, they hold over 50 years of combined experience in fire arts and entertainment and have now performed at corporate events alongside Cirque Du Soleil and Red Bull.

Focusing on weddings and winery events, Ignite Fire Dance brings a new spin on fire arts. Providing a break from the traditional art form, they curate modern fire shows that push the envelope within their industry. Using an emphasis on talent, unique flame FX, and impressive amounts of fire have even landed them in music videos like one for famous rapper “French Montana” or as opening acts for “Sammy Hagar” from Van Halen. You might even recognize them from their involvement in the world record-breaking “fire breathing staircase” viral video, featured on ChiveTV and Tosh.O.

Ultimately, Shayne has a passion for inspiring others to realize and follow what it is that they love, whether thatʼs through shedding light on fire arts, invoking happiness in an audience member, or by providing a stage to support local working performers.
