De Campo 1-2-3 International Instructor Certification Path
-
Self-Study: Begin your journey with a dedicated period of at least two months focused on independent learning of the De Campo 1-2-3 Original curriculum. Immerse yourself in the techniques, paying close attention to the details and nuances of each movement. The goal is to develop a solid foundation and confidence in your own practice.
-
Personalized Instruction: Enhance your understanding through a one-on-one session (online or in-person) with Maestro Paolo Pagaling or a certified De Campo 1-2-3 instructor. Receive expert guidance, refine your technique, and deepen your knowledge of the system. This phase may take several months to complete.
-
Evaluation: Maestro Pagaling will personally assess your comprehension and readiness for the Instructor examination. This evaluation will determine your eligibility to proceed to the next stage.
-
Instructor Examination: The examination consists of two parts:
-
- Leading a Class: Demonstrate your teaching abilities by leading a class of online students through a portion of the curriculum.
- Technical Demonstration: Showcase your mastery of the system with a detailed presentation of techniques from the Elementary, High School, and College levels before a panel of instructors and fellow practitioners.
-
-
Certification & Authorization: Successful completion of the examination grants you certification as a De Campo 1-2-3 International Instructor. You are then authorized to teach the De Campo 1-2-3 Original curriculum and promote students up to Level 7.
-
Magtutudlo: As a fully certified instructor, you have reached the pinnacle of the De Campo 1-2-3 system. There are no further levels. Embrace your role as a guardian of the art, preserving its integrity and passing on its traditions.
-
Building Your Lineage: As a Magtutudlo, you are encouraged to cultivate your own “tribe” of practitioners. Mentor apprentices, promote students, and nurture future instructors to ensure the continued growth and legacy of De Campo 1-2-3.
