  MÜV Integrated Physical Culture is a true gem in Pittsburgh, and I am grateful to have crossed paths with owner and instructor Jhonphilipp Yonan. Jhon is a rare individual who lives with purpose, is deeply passionate about his work, and generously shares his expertise to benefit others' health and well-being. An instructor of "physical culture," Jhon draws exercises from a variety of historical and contemporary traditions, creating unconventional but science-based movement sequences that promote the development of strength, stability, agility, and endurance. Both private and small group training are excellent. Jhon is experienced at teaching all levels, and he is effective as a physical therapist for those with injuries. He presents thoughtful, customized sequences to address individual needs, and he has a unique ability to deconstruct complex movements into baby steps that allow you to progress efficiently and with integrity. As a yoga practitioner and instructor, I've found the instruction at MÜV to complement and enhance my practice, bringing a new awareness to familiar yoga poses. Whereas yoga often focuses on bone alignment, Jhon targets specific muscles that maintain that body alignment, and reawakens habitually unused muscles for maximal stability. And while Jhon has a vast and intricate knowledge base, he manages to convey proper alignment and form without overwhelming you with technical language, unless you want it (then he will gladly give you an advanced anatomy lesson). The atmosphere at MÜV is welcoming, encourages camaraderie, and balances playfulness with professionalism. The studio space is bright, clean, and smells like peppermint. MÜV is definitely worth checking out for all those on the lifelong path of optimal health.
