Abstract

This qualitative research explored the lived experiences of winning culture and arts coaches of Samar State University, Samar Philippines. It focused on investigating their detailed, contextually rich accounts of their life experiences as winning performing arts coaches at the regional and national levels. Using descriptive phenomenology design, all eight (8) winning coaches of the main campus and external campuses were interviewed at their most convenient time. The gathered data was analyzed using Colaizzi’s method of analyzing qualitative data. Their lived experiences revealed four (4) main themes and eight (8) subthemes, with two subthemes in each theme. Generated themes and subthemes were; (i) The Duality of Coaching in Performing Arts, Subtheme 1.1: The Performer, Subtheme 1.2: The Coach, (ii) The Molding of the Performer, Subtheme 2.1: Strategies, Subtheme 2.2: Challenges, (iii) The Scaffolding Mechanism, Subtheme 3.1: Administrative, Subtheme 3.2: Personal, and (iv) Adhering to the Barometer, Subtheme 4.1: Preparation, Subtheme 4.2: Competition. Ethical considerations were paramount, ensuring human research ethics approval, informed consent, and data privacy protection. From the generated themes of winning performing arts coaches, a model was created titled “The Kultura Samarnon Winning Formula” by J. Fabillar (2024). This formula provides a detailed framework and matrix to ensure a winning performance. The proposed model of this study aimed to create a culture and arts development for Samar State University, especially for coaches and student-performers with a high success turn-out.
