Hollan: The First Certified De Campo Instructor in China

We are thrilled to announce that Hollan (Zhong Hounan) has successfully passed the De Campo Examination for Instructor Level, also known as the Magtutudlo Examination. With this achievement, Hollan is now officially given the title of Instructor or Magtutudlo and is authorized to promote students from Level 1 up to Level 7. This certification marks a significant milestone in his martial arts journey and paves the way for the growth and promotion of De Campo throughout China.

Hollan’s journey with De Campo began long before his recent certification. He started training online using the De Campo online course around 2019, even before the pandemic. His dedication to mastering the art of De Campo was evident as he trained diligently, honing his skills and gaining confidence in his movements.

Recognizing the need for in-depth, face-to-face training, Hollan, along with his friend Johnny (Chen Wei), commissioned Maestro Paolo to train them intensively for three weeks—27 days of rigorous, hands-on instruction. This intensive training period was crucial for Hollan to truly understand the intricacies of De Campo and qualify for the Magtutudlo Examination.

Hollan resides on the island of Hainan, while Johnny lives in Guangzhou. Together, they are poised to facilitate the promotion of De Campo across China. Although Johnny has also undergone significant training in De Campo, Hollan, as the certified instructor, will be the one to promote students through the various student levels. His role includes guiding students until they reach Level 7, where they can become candidates for the instructor level.

It is important to note that while Hollan is authorized to promote students up to Level 7, students reaching this level become eligible to take the same Magtutudlo exam that Hollan took. However, this exam will be carried out by the De Campo organization, ensuring that the highest standards are maintained. Hollan’s role is crucial in preparing students for this next step in their martial arts journey.

Additionally, Johnny is recognized as the official representative in Guangzhou, China, by being given the title of Guide. He has received a special certificate acknowledging him as a study group leader. As a Guide, Johnny is authorized to create and lead a study group in Guangzhou, where students can train together in De Campo. Although he is not yet permitted to certify students, he can facilitate their learning and growth within De Campo 1-2-3 Original. For the promotion of any students in his study group, Johnny will collaborate with Hollan in Hainan. Hollan, being a certified instructor, can promote students up to Level 7. Both of them will ensure that students receive the proper guidance and certification.

Johnny’s new role as a Guide marks an important step in expanding De Campo across mainland China. While being a Guide, he too can continue his training and get certified by Hollan himself to student levels until he is ready to take the Instructor exam.

Hollan’s certification is not just a personal achievement; it represents a new chapter for De Campo in China. As the first certified De Campo instructor in the country, he will lead the way in teaching and promoting this esteemed Filipino martial art. His collaboration with Johnny ensures that De Campo’s reach and influence will grow, as they work together to inspire and train new students.

We are proud of Hollan’s accomplishments and look forward to seeing the positive impact he will have on the De Campo community in China. His journey is a testament to dedication, hard work, and the unyielding spirit of martial arts. Congratulations, Hollan, on becoming the first certified De Campo instructor in China. Your journey has just begun, and we are excited to see how you will continue to promote and preserve the legacy of De Campo.

Pugay!
