Feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions about the event! 21 and over only. All Levels

An idea from the minds of MÜV Integrated Physical Culture and Marta On The Move Podcast.

“To move is to create, and to create is to move”

How many times have you had a wonderfully creative idea when reaching "flow state" during a workout, or meditation, only having lost it the moment that life gets in the way when you walk out the door.

Every time people breathe, it’s like filling up a bowl of water. The body fuels the mind, the mind fuels the body, stemming creativity. Movement in, and of itself is the baseline to inspire, uplifting yourself, and others, all while building a strong community.

This idea grew, and allowed us to expand upon it to bring you MOVE X CREATE, an event that starts with a spectrum of various movement practices, and meditation techniques lead by Pittsburgh’s foremost instructors, followed by an immediate outlet for mindful exploration, continuing with playful guided collaboration. Ticket Price- $25 When- Saturday, May 20th 10:15- 1:30pm

Where- Ace Hotel Pgh

What to bring- Yoga mat, pillow, or blanket, small towel, paper, pens, notebook, whatever you are working on, sense of openness, and playful curiosity.

Creator Description-
Creators Marta Napoleone Mazzoni and Jhonphilipp Yonan have been best friends for over 25 years, inspiring, uplifting, and motivatiing each other to find their true passions in life, and forge their own paths in the world. This event was inspired by moments during Marta's fitness practices. She started to see a pattern, that happened especially during yoga practices that the movement would highly spiked her creative process. She had so many news ideas, or helpful breakthroughs for projects already in motion, if only she could write them down, then and there. However, when class ended, and those ideas usually got pushed to the back of the mind, or forgetten all together as day to day tasks took their place. Marta mentioned this to Jhon one day, and MOVE X CREATE was born. An event that fuses movement, and a high creative process think tank, immediately after that workout practice had finished. Taking it a step further we wanted to incorporated the gaining of new perspectives from collaboration as well, joining together game play to help guests take their projects to the next level, and form great bonds with like minded community members. Marta Napoleone Mazzoni is the host of the award winning podcast, Marta On The Move. Born and raised in Pittsburgh, PA, Marta is a solo female explorer that travels the world bringing new, and interesting cultural experiences back to her hometown. Her podcast also highlights individuals coming in, and out of Pittsburgh that she finds facincating in candid, and comedic conversations. Marta On The Move Podcast has been featured on NY Media- The Vanguard as an influential trailblazing woman in media, NEXTpittsburgh, America Talks TV, KDKA News Radio, Star 100.7, Empowering Women's Radio, and Craft Pittsburgh Magazine. Voted as a Rockin Podcast on Libsyn 2015, City Paper's Best of Pittsburgh 2016, and Eyetique's Celebrities of Pittsburgh Campaign.

Guests of the show have included, Alec Baldwin, David K Harbour, Patrick Wilson, Tami Dixon, Tom Savini, and Rick Sebak.

Jhonphilipp Yonan is the creator of MUV Integrated Physical Culture who started his business, and blog in 2007, and shortly after opened his own facility with the goals of helping change the thought process of the fitness/rehab industry through application. Since teaming up with his mentor Joe DeAntonis, MUV is teaching labs on joint, muscle, fascial, and nerve mechanics, in addition to hosting cadaver dissection sessions studying anatomy for exercise and rehabilitation professionals. Jhon is a Certified Performance Enhancement Specialist and Corrective Exercise Specialist under NASM, Certified Natural Trainer under Monkeybar Gymnasium and is a Resistance Training Specialist student

Martial arts was a big inspiration for Jhon, whose dad had trained him in a few styles, and sent him to school to enhance his education of Martial Arts. Jhon was always attracted to Jeet Kune Do Philosophy to pull away from the bias and systems, and liberate thought process. He soon developed a process to prepare anyone to tolerate a martial art that is designed for their own structural proportions.

"We sincerely hope that everyone involved with the event will take away a huge shift in whatever goals, or creative practices they are working on, while forming new bonds in the community. Movement has fueled our friendship for years, and has ignited so many wonderful ideas, this one being one of the best, and we hope to see you there!" - Marta and Jhon
