NUSTAR Resort Cebu officially launched its signature wellness platform, ‘In Full Balance,’ gathering hotel guests, community partners, and media representatives for an exclusive Inside Flow Yoga session at the NUSTAR Ballroom on August 8, 2026.

At NUSTAR, we believe that wellness is for everyone. In different sizes, shapes, or forms, everybody is welcome. We just want you to imbibe that philosophy of ‘anima sana in corpore sano’—a sound mind in a sound body.

VP for Marketing, NUSTAR Resort Cebu

The initiative marks a deliberate expansion in NUSTAR’s lifestyle identity, positioning the premier integrated resort not only as a destination for luxury hospitality and entertainment, but as a sanctuary for active living, mindfulness, and holistic well-being.

Mindful movement meets purpose

Opening the event, Mark Vincent Fajarda, Vice President for Marketing at NUSTAR Resort Cebu, shared the foundational philosophy behind the movement:

Beyond physical fitness, the ‘In Full Balance’ movement embeds direct social impact into its programming by supporting the Kapwa Ko Mahal Ko Foundation Cebu. The initiative leverages NUSTAR’s platform to raise vital financial aid and awareness for pediatric cancer patients, particularly children battling Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL).

Flowing through movement and music

The inaugural workout highlighted Inside Flow Yoga, an evolution of Vinyasa that seamlessly weaves breath, continuous movement, and modern music into a unified practice.

The session was curated by Jenifer “Teacher Jen” Martinez, the Philippines’ first certified Inside Flow instructor. While medical advice kept Martinez from physically leading the practice sequence on stage, Asian Yoga Competition silver medalist Teacher Chriz stepped in to guide participants through the music-driven flow.

Upcoming events in the ‘In Full Balance’ series

The Inside Flow Yoga session serves as the opening chapter of a curated series of wellness and sporting events at NUSTAR Resort Cebu:

  • Sound Healing Session (August 14, 2026): Wellness practitioner Lotte Edwards will lead an evening of deep relaxation and acoustic mindfulness using therapeutic sound frequencies at the NUSTAR Grand Ballroom. (Free for hotel guests and by invitation).

  • NUSTAR Dragon Boat Regatta (September 18–20, 2026): Bringing high-energy teamwork and sportsmanship to the waterfront, local and international teams will compete along the NUSTAR Boardwalk in a thrilling three-day aquatic showcase.

Beyond hospitality: A new era for NUSTAR

Through the ‘In Full Balance’ campaign, NUSTAR Resort Cebu proves that modern luxury extends beyond world-class gaming, dining, and accommodations. By blending physical movement, mental restoration, and meaningful community outreach, the resort is setting a new benchmark for integrated hospitality in the region.

Whether through the rhythm of Inside Flow yoga, the quiet resonance of sound healing, the energy of the NUSTAR Run, or competitive paddling at the Dragon Boat Regatta, NUSTAR invites everyone to step back, reconnect, and embrace a life lived in full harmony.
