Get a head start on your New Year’s resolutions with Kerry Sports Manila, a renowned lifestyle and leisure club at the heart of Bonifacio Global City. Through a holistic, community-oriented approach to wellness–that encompasses physical, mental, emotional, and social well-being–the centre empowers wellness enthusiasts to improve their fitness journeys and achieve their health goals.
For Vince Golangco, CEO of When In Manila, this focus on holistic wellness is what sets Kerry Sports Manila apart. “It’s a departure from the traditional gym setting. Kerry Sports Manila is not just about physical fitness but also maintaining a positive mental state. It shifted my idea of a gym to a place for holistic healing for both mind and body.”
Offering a wide array of programs and activities, the 8,000-square-metre space is a one-stop hub for elevating exercise and mindfulness beyond traditional fitness. From cardio and strength training to yoga and Pilates, their facilities are key to an essential pre-holiday mind and body reset.
The abundance of options is what drew Vince to initially sign up within the first year of Kerry Sports Manila’s operations. “The moment I stepped in, I was genuinely impressed. The space is so open and inviting. You can immediately envision yourself engaging in various activities — be it playing basketball, utilizing different machines, or attending classes.”
Post-workout, cool-downs are made seamless with Spa at Kerry Sports Manila, the club’s in-house spa. Members are invited to unwind, relax, and rejuvenate with restorative massages, and skincare and body treatments inspired by traditional techniques. Located at Level 6 of Shangri-La The Fort, Manila, Spa at Kerry Sports Manila is equipped with eight private treatment rooms, including two couples’ rooms and a reflexology room.
These luxury treatments underscore the center’s proactive and multidisciplinary approach to holistic well-being. As Vince shares, “It’s a whole different wellness experience.”
This considered approach to wellness extends to the support members receive even in times of emergencies as well. For Marcus Chu, a realtor and content creator more commonly known as Neon Man, he recalls the team’s swift response to a co-member experiencing a heart attack, hastily arranging transportation to a nearby hospital.
“Even in less serious situations, like tripping or being in the Adventure Zone with kids, there’s a support team ready to help. Up to ten people would come to your aid. This level of support adds to the overall positive experience and makes me feel secure in my wellness journey at Kerry Sports Manila.”, said Marcus.
Having joined the club initially because of the basketball court, Marcus is proud to call Kerry Sports Manila his permanent wellness hub for its abundance of features that work together to deliver holistic wellness across all ages.
“It’s a complete setup for me and my kids, especially with the Adventure Zone. Whether they’re playing downstairs or I’m hitting the basketball court or gym, it’s a perfect fit for me. It’s a different and welcoming environment compared to other places I’ve been,” said Marcus.
