In need of a girl date? Here are fun bonding activities for you and your besties
This Women's Month, show your bestie how much you appreciate her with a much-needed friendly date.
While being with your significant other might be the norm for fun bonding activities around the Metro, it's a different kind of love when you gather your girl group and hone your hobbies with friends.
Get your group chat popping with these fun and worthwhile activities you can do with the strong ladies in your life. You might even discover a new hobby while you're at it!
Get dirty with pottery
There will always be something satisfying about creating something with your hands. Wabi-Sabi Studio in San Juan offers beginners a chance to learn the age-old medium through its many workshops.
If you and your friends just want a fun artsy experience, you can opt for the 1-day crash course (P4,400/pax) while the 3-day full course can hold a group of four at P10,600/pax. Take it from Bea Alonzo, Kathryn Bernardo, and Ria Atayde, they all took their friends here for this experience!
The classes focus on wheel throwing and include glazing and painting from the studio itself. Check out their website here.
Wear your best outfits and go on a self-photo shoot
Sometimes, all you really need is a solid war moment. If you and your besties want to take your selfie game to the next level, a number of self-shoot studios have popped up in Manila. Plus points if you're planning themed high-concept shoots!
- Atomm Studios, Quezon City (P600/2 pax)
- Backroom Studios, Makati City (P500/2pax)
- Studio Seoul, Marikina (P700/2pax)

Explore your baker side
Nothing's sweeter than a lifelong friendship, so why not seal it with a cake?
Located inside SM Aura Premier in Taguig, Bakebe is a "DIY baking wonderland" that supplies the recipe, tools, and ingredients for you and your besties to create the perfect dessert—or at least make something edible that looks cute.
The price and time limit of the baking sessions differ with each treat. You can start baking oatmeal cookies for P799 while high-concept cakes go for no higher than P2499. You can book through their website.
Go 'Euphoria' with neon bowling
There's nothing like an old-fashioned friendly bowling match. Studio300 in Kapitolyo offers the classic game with a modern twist: neon aisles and aesthetically-pleasing amenities. If you and your friends get tired of striking out, you can also opt to play darts or sing karaoke.
Bowling rates go for P1,250 per hour for one lane, so you and your friends can split the bill depending on your match style. To reserve, shoot them a message on Instagram.
Test your strength in Climb Central Manila
