Abstract: Dances port, a fusion of artistry and athleticism, demands rigorous training and effective coaching to achieve competitive success. This study examines the relationship between coaching quality, training effectiveness, and competition standing among Dancesport athletes in General Santos City. Using a convergent mixed-methods approach, data were collected through surveys and open-ended responses and analyzed using descriptive statistics, Spearman’s rho correlation, and narrative analysis. Results indicate that coaching quality does not directly influence the extent of training, suggesting that training frequency and intensity may be shaped by external factors, such as athlete experience and personal commitments. However, there is a notable correlation between coaching quality and training effectiveness, highlighting that varied coaching styles significantly impact athletes’ confidence, adaptability, and creativity. Conversely, the study finds no clear link between coaching quality and competition standing, implying that external elements, including institutional support and competition experience, may play a greater role in performance outcomes. The findings emphasize that structured training significantly enhances technical proficiency, but inconsistencies in methods and limited institutional backing hinder skill refinement and competitive advancement. The study recommends holistic coaching approaches that combine technical expertise with emotional support, alongside structured intervention programs such as mentorship, performance analysis, and exposure to elite competitions. These strategies aim to enhance athlete development and bridge the gap between local and national competitiveness. To optimize performance outcomes in Dancesport, institutions are advised to adopt evidence-based coaching models that foster both physical and mental growth. Additionally, future research should explore the long-term effects of coaching styles on athlete progression to further refine training methodologies.
