Program Details

Disconnect and Live in the Jungle with Jasher Munar Villaruel a Surfing, Skateboarding and Kiteboarding Living Legend, awarded and recognized by the Philippines Surfing Hall of Fame. Enjoy conversation about applied Quantum Physics (its connection with spirituality) like living uncomfortably with nature as he understood that comfort zone is the graveyard of the soul. Learn the basics of surfing like paddling against the flow of the mini private River of Pranadize, surfing simulation in our jungle skate bowl, Chakras alignment breathwork, surf related yoga, and agility training with a fitness ball also called the manual pilates.

Expect a simple lifestyle with limited electricity and almost zero internet access. This allows you to truly disconnect and reconnect with the natural world (Newtonian Physics life). Enjoy refreshing showers by fetching it by yourself from the well, using a barrel of water, and find comfort in basic, functional toilets.

Living in harmony: Join us in embracing the beauty of simplicity, where meals are prepared with fresh, organic, local ingredients, mainly cooked with coconut milk and evenings are spent under a canopy of stars and leaves and branches of the big trees with the PRANAdize crew who chose to live with nature rather than going to school and become a slave by the system.
