Humpday is over and the weekend is , once again, just around the corner. For those who haven’t found their destination yet, here’s a roundup of events and activities happening in the Metro. Go forth and MOVE!
FLOW IN THE CITY by FLOW SURF YOGA SAMBA
FLOW, one of the very first groups to bring you organized Yoga, Surf and Samba retreats in the country is giving our itchy feet a break this weekend as they bring us Flow In The City.
Flow has always been out of town or the country, offering retreats to those needing a break from the daily hustle. It’s exciting to know that now they are taking over the city to celebrate health and wellness, offering the workshops they’re known for.
Flow In The City is a full-day event that offers an array of activities, healthy treats and eco-conscious brands. I personally know most of the workshop leaders and could say that these people really know their craft so the fee of Php750 for two workshops is definitely worth it. Participants all get a loot bag from sponsors like Aura Athletica and a chance to win a 3D2N stay at Second Wind Bed and Bunk Boracay.
If you can’t commit to any of the workshops, just stop by to visit the booths and hang out with the community of wellness warriors for no fee. Flow In The City is happening on May 16, Saturday from 10AM-8PM at Fully Booked Top Shelf, Bonifacio High Street, Taguig. Register at www.flowretreats.com
VINYASA YOGA WEEKEND WITH BRIAN MILLER by BEYOND LIBIS
If you prefer spending the weekend flowing through asanas on your mat, you may want to take part in Brian Miller’s series of workshops.
I have been following Brian on Instagram for a couple of years and I am truly in awe of how deep and strong his practice is. His style roots to the Ashtangi and Yin Yoga lineages, striking the perfect balance between strength and openness in the body, and stillness in the mind.
The workshop series will run from Thursday (that’s today), through Sunday at Beyond Libis. If you haven’t yet, check out Brian Miller’s Instagram account (@brianmiller) and learn the complete details of the series through Beyond’s website. 
Beyond Libis is located at Units 8-9 3F Richmond Center, 8001 E.Rodriguez Jr. Ave, Bagumbayan, QC (Across Shopwise Libis) Metro Manila, Philippines. Send inquiries through libis@igobeyondyoga.com or call them at 09178758268
CLASSICAL BALLET MASTERCLASS WITH HERBERT ALVAREZ by DALOY DANCE COMPANY
Daloy (which literally means flow in Filipino) is bringing in Herbert Alvarez for his third masterclass of the series on Friday, May 15 at 11:00 AM. Herbert is a renowned Ballet Teacher and Choreographer from the University of the Philippines, Diliman. I found a few of his amazing works online (watch here). He will be teaching the fourth and fifth masterclasses at Daloy on May 22 and 28.
To find out more about his masterclasses or if you’re looking to practicing the beautiful art of ballet or any other genre of dance for that matter, visit Daloy Dance Company’s site or send them an email through daloydancecompany@gmail.com They are offering more classes and workshops this summer and I am actually looking forward to visiting the studio and attending a few dance classes with them myself!
