Philosophy
|
The Pauline Baker Rodgers School of Dance prides itself on providing the best of both worlds -- a strong dance program that has built its reputation since Miss Pauline started teaching for Ruth Barnes in 1960, along with integrity, manners, artistic ability, and self-esteem that Miss Pauline fosters in each of her students. It is her philosophy that this combination provides the best preparation for the dancer to succeed on or off the stage. We believe that becoming a dancer is not just a matter of learning dance techniques but requires the kind of personal growth that this dance school can provide. We are a school of dignity and distinction devoted to the art of dance.

Founder
|
Pauline Baker Rodgers, better known to all as “Miss Pauline,” started teaching dance in 1960 for Ruth Barnes. In 1986, Miss Pauline began having her own recitals and shortly after the school became the Pauline Baker Rodgers School of Dance. Over these last 60 years, Miss Pauline has positively touched the lives of so many children. She brings out the beauty of movement and dance in everyone she instructs. Miss Pauline is a beautiful person, inside and out, and truly is someone a child can look up to, without reservation. She values every child’s self esteem; and not only teaches the art of dance, but helps children build confidence, strong bodies and moral character. Her name is respected in the community and among her peers and students, not only because of her excellence in teaching, but because of the wonderful person that she is. The 2019-2020 dance season was Miss Pauline's 60th year of teaching dance. We will be celebrating this achievement at our 60 Years of Sensational annual spring recital on May 15, 2021.
