00:00We will be able to watch live via Zoom Sir Maurice Javier,

00:05who aside from being a teacher, is also a coach of Danceport.

00:09Good morning, Sir Maurice.

00:11Happy New Year.

00:14Good morning, Sir and Ma'am.

00:16Sir Maurice, let's start from the very start.

00:20What pushed you to pursue Danceport?

00:27Your story is very interesting.

00:30Aside from being a teacher, you are also one of the head coaches of Danceport.

00:35Thank you very much for the compliment.

00:38It all started when I was in school,

00:41and my students were all dancers.

00:45They were all dancing, hip-hop, festival dance.

00:48So I thought, why not Danceport?

00:50That's what I taught my students.

00:52That's how it all started.

00:54I created a dance troupe with Danceport, Sir and Ma'am.

01:02Sir Maurice, tell us about your experience with Danceport.

01:06Where did you compete?

01:10Actually, Ma'am, during my college time,

01:13I competed in Danceport together with my friends.

01:17But I didn't win because of lack of training.

01:21And Danceport is still not that open here in our town.

01:26So I didn't win during that time.

01:29But now, I continue to train with my friends and teammates in Danceport.

01:39Sir, you said earlier that you were inspired by your students,

01:43that's why you created a dance troupe.

01:45But how did you start coaching Danceport?

01:55Because, Sir, my students here at Lumot National High School,

01:59they are all dancers.

02:02I really focused on Danceport,

02:05to give a different flavor to our troupe here in our school.

02:10We don't just focus on one genre.

02:12My students should learn all genres.

02:16Sir, before you created this dance troupe,

02:20did you have any other experience in handling Danceport?

02:25Or maybe, did you compete?

02:29Actually, we just created a whole team.

02:31Two years ago, when Danceport competition was opened here in our district,

02:35that's when it was created.

02:37I only had two couples.

02:40Now, I have five couples who compete in Danceport.

02:45Sir Morris, do you offer Latin and standard lessons to our members?

02:55Yes. Actually, we are open in our school.

02:58I also told other schools here,

03:02especially the elementary schools here in Cavite Laguna,

03:06that I can coach other students in their school,

03:11not just in our school.

03:13So that our students can train,

03:17not just in elementary schools,

03:20so that when they reach high school,

03:22they won't have a hard time teaching Danceport.

03:25They will also be open to Danceport, Ma'am.

03:29To follow up,

03:31what is your training routine here in the school,

03:35especially here in your group?

03:39It's hard to balance our schedule, Ma'am.

03:43Because I teach in the school,

03:45and the students study.

03:47That's why we only have training after class.

03:51Also, we don't have a dance studio,

03:55that's why we only train in our coverture.

03:58That's why sometimes, we are divided into different sports.

04:02There's volleyball, badminton,

04:05that's why we divide our coverture.

04:09That's why we do our training.

04:13Sir Morris, you mentioned earlier,

04:15that aside from Danceport,

04:17you also teach traditional dances,

04:20which are usually taught in our schools.

04:23But what do you think about Danceport?

04:26Do you think that because Danceport is for young people,

04:31it resonates more with your students when you teach?

04:37Because, Sir,

04:39just like what I have mentioned a while ago,

04:41that Danceport is not known in our country.

04:45So why not open it?

04:47Not only for folk dances,

04:49for festival dances, for hip-hop dance,

04:52and for different genres of dancing.

04:55Why not?

04:56Because it's good to watch

04:58for young people to know how to dance.

05:02We don't expect them to grow up

05:05or to be mature to teach Danceport.

05:07They should be able to learn Danceport when they are young.

05:11When it comes to competitions,

05:14they don't have to hassle with their training.

05:20I've been covering Danceport for so long already.

05:24And to the athletes that I've interviewed,

05:27they said that Danceport is not just dancing

05:30because it's highly athletic.

05:32And they do cross-train.

05:34As a coach, do you encourage cross-training?

05:38Yes.

05:39Before, when there was a competition,

05:43we thought we would just train.

05:45But my mentors also said,

05:49you should not just train during competitions.

05:54Before training,

05:56when the competition is still far away,

05:59you should train.

06:00It should not be interrupted.

06:02It should be continuous training for the kids.

06:05Because Danceport is not just about dancing.

06:08There is a routine.

06:09We should start with the basics.

06:11Sila goes from bronze to silver

06:14until we reach gold.

06:17Sir Morris,

06:18you started teaching Danceport to your students

06:21because at first, you just wanted to introduce it.

06:24But now, you have students

06:27whose main goal is to get a scholarship

06:31or maybe compete in a higher level.

06:35Now, they've learned it from you.

06:37Do you have such students?

06:40Yes, I want them to learn.

06:44I will continue to teach them Danceport.

06:48Because when they reach college,

06:51there are universities that open scholarship programs

06:55for students.

06:56It will be a way for them to help their parents

07:00and for them to go to college for free.

07:04Just like me,

07:05I used to be a scholar at our university.

07:09Sir, if you have students

07:12who have potential,

07:14maybe on your part,

07:15what is your guidance

07:18and how do you hone those students?

07:23Especially,

07:24you said that there is hope

07:26that if you do well here,

07:28you might receive a scholarship when you reach college.

07:33Yes, sir.

07:34I told them to continue learning Danceport.

07:39At the same time,

07:40I told them not to stop.

07:43As much as possible,

07:45I will be by their side to guide them.

07:48I told them not to lose their discipline

07:51because that is the most important thing.

07:53If you keep dancing in your heart,

07:55you will improve yourself

07:57in different types of dance,

07:59especially in Danceport.

08:01One of your goals,

08:03Sir Morris,

08:04is to expand Danceport in your city.

08:08Do you agree with your local government unit

08:12to expand and spread Danceport in Laguna?

08:19Yes, ma'am.

08:21We always agree with our local government unit,

08:26Hon. R.L.B. Arroyo

08:29and our SK Federation President,

08:31Limron Sanchez.

08:33We will also expand Danceport in our city

08:38because our kids have a lot of potential

08:41when it comes to Danceport.

08:43They are getting to know Danceport in our city.

08:47Not only can they dance,

08:51they also have love.

08:54Our kids are being shown

08:56in our school and in other schools

08:59that they love Danceport.

09:03Sir Morris,

09:04we know that a lot of people say

09:06that it's hard to be an athlete and a student at the same time.

09:11But it's the same for you.

09:13Aside from being a coach,

09:15you are also a teacher.

09:16So, please share with us

09:18what are the challenges that you faced

09:21when you started teaching Danceport

09:24because you are also a teacher.

09:25And what are the challenges that you are still facing?

09:30Sir, the challenges that we are facing are minimal.

09:34Like I mentioned earlier,

09:37my schedule as a teacher is very strict.

09:41From morning to afternoon,

09:43I have to teach the kids.

09:45The kids have to study from morning to afternoon.

09:48Most of my dancers are honors students.

09:53So, they have to balance themselves

09:57in their studies and in their dancing.

10:00What is your inspiration for continuing teaching Danceport?

10:07My inspiration is the kids.

10:10As long as there are kids who want to learn,

10:12I will not stop teaching and training Danceport.

10:15As long as there are willing kids who want to learn,

10:18why wouldn't I teach them?

10:21As long as they want to learn,

10:24I will teach them.

10:25As long as I can afford it.

10:29Sir Morris, what is more difficult,

10:30being a teacher or being a Danceport coach?

10:35It's both, sir.

10:36It's difficult because there are kids who want to learn.

10:39But despite that, I love teaching.

10:42I also love teaching dance.

10:44That's why I won't get tired

10:46of teaching my students.

10:49Okay. I'm pretty sure you have something.

10:51In other words, since you are a teacher,

10:53did it become a factor that

10:56your transition became faster

10:59to become a coach

11:01because you already have techniques

11:04to share your knowledge?

11:07Do you think so?

11:10Yes, sir.

11:11Because until now,

11:13I'm still learning how to dance Danceport.

11:16Techniques and strategies that I should learn

11:19and share with my students.

11:22As a teacher, right?

11:25For those who are interested in Danceport,

11:27do you have any tips

11:29for those who want to enter

11:31or try this sport, Danceport?

11:35For everyone who wants to enter

11:37the field of dance,

11:38especially in Danceport,

11:40keep on going.

11:42Let's discipline ourselves

11:44and let's focus on our goal.

11:48Being active in dancing.

11:52That's it, ma'am.

11:54Do you have any local tournaments

11:56that you are preparing for?

11:59Yes, ma'am.

12:00Actually, next week,

12:02my students will compete

12:04in the Division Athletic Meet.

12:06Maybe.

12:08Our schedule is 8 to 10, ma'am.

12:12Hopefully, we will have a chance

12:15to participate in the regional.

12:17My students will win

12:19in the Division Athletic Meet, ma'am.

12:22So, Sir Morris,

12:23you are saying that you need to win

12:25in one of your competitions

12:27so that you can advance to the next one.

12:29Is that right?

12:31Yes, sir.

12:32And if that is possible,

12:34do you have a target

12:36for an international competition?

12:38Even if it is in the far future,

12:40do you have a target for your students?

12:43Yes, sir.

12:44We are looking for that opportunity

12:46that even if it is just a regional meet,

12:49my students will benefit from it.

12:52Even if it is just a Division Meet,

12:54they will benefit from it.

12:55They will experience that.

12:57That will be our national game,

12:59right, ma'am?

13:00Finally, do you have a message

13:02to our sports fans this morning?

13:07To all of our sports fans

13:10in the whole Philippines

13:12and all over the world,

13:13let's continue to focus on our goals

13:16and we will also be successful

13:20when the time comes.

13:22That's why we need to train.

13:23Let's continue to train.

13:27Alright, thank you so much,

13:29Sir Morris Javier.

13:30And Happy New Year

13:32from us here at PTV Sports.

13:34Happy New Year!
