🌟✨ Late but full of gratitude! ✨🌟

From April 1 to 5, 2026, the Philippine Paddling Federation National Team was honored to be graced by Dr. Drolly Claravall, founder of Amazing Touch. 💫 Her presence brought holistic healing, training, treatment, and pure fun to our athletes — a true boost to both body and spirit!

🏞️ Our journey together was made even more memorable through inspiring collaborations at:

- Iwahig Firefly Facility 🌌 — where nature’s glow matched the energy of the team

- Victoria Guest House, Puerto Princesa City 🏡 — a warm and welcoming hub for camaraderie

We are deeply thankful and grateful for Dr. Claravall’s dedication and the joy she shared with the team. 🙏🐉

Her holistic approach reminded us that healing and training go hand in hand, and that paddling is not just about power — it’s about balance, wellness, and community. 💛

To Dr. Claravall and our partners, thank you for making this experience vibrant, exciting, and unforgettable!
