Wēla moves and The Berry Collective arrived at this moment in wellness by design, not by accident. Wēla, branding itself as “wellness made social,” works to transform fitness and mindfulness from solo routines into live experiences that feel celebratory and connected. Meanwhile, The Berry Collective describes its mission as creating spaces “where wellness and community meet,” offering immersive events that combine movement, ritual, and thoughtful brand partnerships. Together, they brought their shared philosophy to Rhone’s Flatiron space: making wellness tangible, accessible and rooted in real-world connection, rather than polished, distant ideals.

Guests flowed into Rhone’s Flatiron flagship just past 6 p.m., stepping into a space softened by low amber lighting and the gentle hum of a curated playlist. The evening opened with a guided meditation led by Grata Wellness, allowing attendees to leave the day behind and reset their mind. Soon after, a thoughtful conversation on stress management kicked off with Global Healing—practical, grounded, and real. Activation stations lined the perimeter: Haystack Acupuncture offered ear-seeding, while GlowBar provided prizes and skincare secrets. Meanwhile, the bar and lounge area served sips and bites curated by The Berry Collective, reinforcing the relaxed-yet-intentional mood. Each guest left not just with memories, but with tangible tokens of the evening: curated gift bags filled by Rhone, Global Healing, Truvani, Pressed Juicery, Hu, Big Daddy’s Nuts, GlowBar and Daizy’s Social Soda. The mingling crowd, wellness-savvy and socially curious, wandered between stations, connected deeply without taking things too seriously and embraced the mantra of “wellness made social.”
