The Flow:FarmYogaSamba Retreat At GK Enchanted Farm

The very first Flow:FarmYogaSamba Weekend Retreat was celebrated last September 22-23 at the Gawad Kalinga Enchanted Farm in Angat, Bulacan.

Upon arrival, participants were given all natural Filipino iced tea by Bayani Brew as welcome drinks.

 An organic farm tour was led by different GK volunteers to get to know the lush surroundings.

All meals were served in the gorgeous open-aired Grass Roots Café under the supervision of Bea Gomez. 

They are famous for their farm fresh vegetables, organic duck eggs, herbs and locally made cheeses. For the green warriors, we also chowed down on vegetarian friendly creations like the Puso Ng Saging Burger and Pesto Pasta.

The group was able to learn how to make Theo & Philo chocolates and specialty herbed cheeses before the afternoon delight which was sunset Yin Yoga led by Monica Eleazar-Manzano at the grand Grass Bamboo Palace.

The next day, early risers greeted the sun with Vinyasa Yoga overlooking the endless green rice fields.

Afterwards, Escola de Samba de Manila worked up the participants with Battucada drumming and Samba dance moves.

 Of course, everyone learned how to make basic green smoothies with local fruits and greens.

Participants also enjoyed their Raw Vegan Food bowls.

Beyond Yoga at Bonifacio High Street Central

Free your mind at Beyond Yoga located at the Heart of Bonifacio Global City

On a typical day, Bonifacio Global City is filled with all types of fitness enthusiasts. This makes

it no surprise that the team behind Beyond Yoga, the country’s premiere yoga studio, chose this

lively city as the perfect location for the company’s second branch.

Beyond Yoga, however, not only caters not only to existing yoga practitioners but to individuals

of different backgrounds, lifestyles, and fitness levels that want to explore the benefits of a

yoga practice. Its Bonifacio High Street Central (or simply, BHS Central) branch, opening in

September, offers a wide array of yoga, dance and core strength classes to choose from,

including none other than AntiGravity Yoga, a fun workout that will literally keep you off your toes

and swinging above ground.

The BHS Central branch was conceptualized to create an inviting environment that brings to life

forward-thinking ideas aligned Beyond Yoga’s class offerings. The company collaborated with top

architects Jason and Nikki Buensalido to bring the vision to life, using the AntiGravity hammock

as a design inspiration, and creating beautiful soft lines that cascade throughout ceilings, into raw

walls that accent glass and brick. Every space is well-thought out – from the practice room, which

can accommodate as many as 50 mat yoga practitioners (or 26 AntiGravity yoga practitioners) at

a time, to the male and female locker rooms clad in matte black and chrome finishings by VISARI

Bathroom Solutions, to the lounge and reception area with functional niches for retail items and

accessories.

Just a stone’s throw away from all the restaurants and retails stores, Beyond Yoga will surely

be a beautiful respite for your mind and body. Immerse yourself in the different classes that

the studio has to offer such as Ashtanga, Vinyasa, Yin, Hatha, Jivamukti, Restorative, and

AntiGravity Yoga, Zumba, and signature classes Beyond Sculpt and Beyond Core Flow. The

Beyond Yoga team and its dynamic group of certified teachers will help you find the class that

would suit you best.
