Three faculty members of the University have been accredited by the Philippine DanceSport Federation Academy as coaches for Latin American and Modern Standard DanceSport.

The newly accredited coaches are Ms. Arlene Gay C. Castillo and Mr. Chleo G. Pascual from Cabarroguis Campus, and Ms. Alphine P. Seriosa from Diffun Campus. The trio successfully completed and passed the Coach Level 1 theory examination for both Latin American and Modern Standard DanceSport. The accreditation cum congress was held from August 29-31, 2025, at the Ben Palispis Hall in the Benguet Capitol Gym, La Trinidad, Benguet. The event was organized by the One North Luzon Chapter in partnership with the Philippine Dance Sport Federation Academy.

Achieving a certificate of accreditation is a victory for the teacher-coaches as it validates their expertise to the art of DanceSport. It officially recognizes their capability to train and mentor student-athletes at a higher, more professional level. For these coaches, it is a proof to their passion and hard work, providing them with the official credentials to guide future champions.

Congratulations to our esteemed DanceSport coaches!
