The dance floor is heating up following the first ever Red Bull Dance Your Style Cebu qualifier event. This event has sparked a wave of enthusiasm among dancers and dance enthusiasts across the country, as Red Bull, known for its support of sports, culture and high-energy events, is back for another year in the world of dance.

Red Bull Dance Your Style is a unique competition that celebrates individuality, creativity, and the diversity of dance styles. Unlike traditional dance competitions with set routines, Red Bull Dance Your Style encourages dancers to showcase their improvisational skills and freestyle moves. It's all about embracing your personal style and letting your passion for dance shine.

16 dancers from the region showcased their extraordinary skills and unleashed their creativity on the dance floor. The atmosphere was electric as performers gave it their all, leaving no doubt that Cebu is a powerhouse of talent in the dancing world.

After seeing stellar performances, Shihan Maui, known on the dance floor as Baby Titan, emerged as the dancer who took home the crown. His performance was nothing short of outstanding, captivating the audience with his unique style, precision, and artistic expression.

“Winning the regional tournament for Red Bull Dance Your Style competition is a lifelong dream fulfilled,” Maui said in an interview. “Since I was a child, I've been captivated by the power of dance and the thrill of competition. It's been a journey of countless rehearsals, pushing my limits, and never giving up on my passion. This victory represents the culmination of years of hard work and dedication. It's a testament to the unwavering belief in my abilities and the sacrifices made along the way.”

In addition to Baby Titan, three contestants proved to be standouts in the competition, earning their spots in the top 4. These included JPY, Taw, and Nemesis, who was also the competition’s only female finalist.

With Cebu’s regional qualifiers now over, eyes now turn to the regional qualifiers in the country’s capital of Manila. Set to happen on July 22 at URBN QC.

The top 4 finalists from each qualifier will eventually move on to the National Finals in September. From there, the winner of the National Finals will qualify for the Red Bull Dance Your Style World Finals in Frankfurt, Germany in November.

(ASIA PACIFIC, July 20, 2023) – Premier health and wellness company Herbalife concluded today its Global Month of Purpose across Asia Pacific. Herbalife employees and distributors gave back to their communities by spending over 3,200 hours from April to June, volunteering in a host of activities benefiting people and the environment, in Australia, Cambodia, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand and Vietnam.

“The Global Month of Purpose initiative complements our robust program of serving communities in need, creating additional opportunities to enable our employees and distributors to volunteer for worthy causes,” said Stephen Conchie, Regional President for Asia Pacific and China at Herbalife. “Whether it is the gift of time by volunteering at local Casa Herbalife programs, supporting neighborhood food kitchens, or picking up trash from beaches, our employees and distributors are continuously making positive efforts to improve our communities and planet.” 

The volunteering activities conducted by Herbalife employees and distributors across the Asia Pacific region are aligned with the company’s Global Responsibility agenda, focused on making positive social and environmental impacts. To encourage volunteerism, Herbalife offers 16 hours of paid time off each year for its employees to perform community services.

During this year’s Global Month of Purpose, the majority of activities across Asia Pacific focused on helping underserved communities, such as preparing nutritious meals for and playing sports with children from underprivileged families who are being cared for through the Herbalife Casa Program, which is supported by Herbalife Nutrition Foundation. Other volunteer work included a visit to a school for mentally impaired children by Herbalife employees and distributors in Vietnam, who played games with and gave gifts to the children.

In Indonesia, Herbalife employees visited the collection branches of the company’s global responsibility partner, Plastic Bank, where they learned of the pressing need to stop ocean plastic, while also helping collect waste plastic.

The Global Month of Purpose initiative contributes to Herbalife’s goal of making 50 million positive impacts that nourish people and our planet by 2030, the company’s 50th anniversary.

Why sleep is an important part of your overall wellness

Tweet

How well are you sleeping? For many Filipinos, getting a good night's sleep has become increasingly hard.

More than 1 out of 2 Filipinos shared that they experience sleep problems, according to a sleep tracker study released by Southeast Asia’s leading consumer research firm Milieu Insight. Among the six countries surveyed, Filipinos have the highest difficulty of getting a good night’s sleep, with 56% of those saying they experience sleep problems a few times a week. The most common sleep problems encountered by Filipinos include difficulty falling asleep (53%), waking up often at night (41%) and irregular sleep and wake cycle (41%).

The effects of poor sleep are both physical and mental. One does not only feel tired but there's an inability to concentrate. Regulating emotions and dealing with daily stress also becomes harder; one feels more irritable and moodier. And getting poor sleep even for just a few nights a week, is associated with higher levels of depressive symptoms.

This spells a big problem when it comes to overall wellness for Filipinos as sleep is a critical part of our health. Fortunately, Samsung has developed innovative technology to help those who want to get a good sleep, and care for their overall wellbeing.

Recognizing the importance of sleep, the Samsung Galaxy Watch series offers different features to help users improve their sleep quality. With the Samsung Health app and Sleep tile on one’s Galaxy Watch, one is able to monitor their sleep patterns, track sleep movements and get an overall sleep score for a better idea on how one is sleeping thus far. It also helps set daily goals and coaching programs based on the sleep data it has gathered to form better sleep habits.

For easier assessment of whether one is getting good quality sleep, the Galaxy Watch provides a sleep score from one to 100 with one being the lowest, 100 being the highest. The score which is based on a variety of factors such as total sleep time (adults should get around 7 to 9 hours of sleep every night), number of sleep cycles, movements or awakenings (to get an idea of how often one’s sleep is interrupted), physical recovery or how much deep sleep you get and mental recovery or REM sleep.

With a sleep score, one can now go about improving it with the Sleep Coach features of the Galaxy Watch. One can enable the Sleep Coaching feature by starting the program with a quick questionnaire and wearing the Galaxy Watch for a week while one sleeps. This will help gather a week’s worth of sleep data.

After logging a week’s sleep data, users will be able to discover their Sleep Animal tailored to their sleep patterns and then start a four to five-week sleep coaching program. This includes Sleep Missions that will help improve sleep quality with notifications. One can follow the steps of the Sleep Coaching program and read the recommended articles for tips to help better manage sleep.

With good sleep, one tends to think more clearly, be able to process information in a more balanced way and overall have a brighter outlook. Are you all set to get a good night’s sleep? Samsung is gearing up to unveil its latest Galaxy devices to help you sleep through the night and boost your overall wellness. Embark on a captivating journey as Samsung introduces a new cultural driving force – an all-new Galaxy at the very first Unpacked Event to be hosted in Seoul, South Korea.

This global event will be streamed live on Samsung.com, Samsung Newsroom, and Samsung’s YouTube channel beginning July 26, 7:00 p.m. Philippine time.
