Minister Paulette Drummond, a visionary dance teacher, and spiritual mentor, born and raised in Spartanburg, SC. Drummond discovered her deep-rooted passion for dance at an early age, a passion that would shape her life's journey and impact countless others.
In her youth, Drummond took the initiative to found a dance group, not only to express her love for dance but also to foster sisterhood and community bonds. After dedicating her life to Christ, she seamlessly combined her devotion to spirituality with her love for dance, becoming a dance teacher and spiritual mentor at New Testament Church.
Driven by a desire to make a broader impact, Minister Drummond took a bold step and established the Spartanburg Davidic Theatre, her very own dance studio. Here, she extended her teachings beyond dance, offering classes in gymnastics and acting as well. Notably, her studio became a haven for underprivileged young girls, providing them with an opportunity to learn, express themselves, and develop both artistically and spiritually under her guidance.
Drummond's unwavering commitment is evident in her goal to create a safe and affordable space where these young girls can not only nurture their artistic talents but also build strong character. Her dedication to community support has led her dance groups to travel extensively across Spartanburg and Columbia, SC, spreading the joy of dance and uplifting communities along the way.
In her role as Minister and mentor, Paulette Drummond continues to inspire and make a positive impact, providing accessible classes and fostering a nurturing environment where young minds can flourish and find their voices. Her legacy is one of empowerment, community building, and the transformative power of dance.
