About Grace

Grace was first introduced to swing dancing in 2009 when she instantly fell in love. She has been dancing, competing, and teaching ever since. As a competitor, she has placed and won in many regional, national, and international contests across Lindy Hop, Shag, and Balboa. As a social dancer, she is renowned for her ability to make any partner look incredible while pulling off a stunning amount of variations and stylings.

Grace loves seeing people grow as they learn this dance. As an instructor, she enjoys empowering her students. Grace teaches techniques that help dancers be versatile and creative while still focusing on connecting and conversing with their partners. This enables them to dance with anyone and feel the freedom to express themselves.

About Ursula

Ursula Hicks began her dance training over 20 years ago in Ballet, Tap, Jazz, and later Modern and Contemporary dance. Ursula graduated with B.A. in Dance Studies from Texas Woman’s University in the summer 2013, where she studied with Marry Williford-Shade, Sarah Gamblin, Jordan Fuchs, and Gladys Keeton.  

Ursula brings such musicality and enthusiasm to the dance floor, it’s no wonder that she has placed in multiple Lindy Hop competitions including the International Lindy Hop Championships and LindyFest. She has also taught at Herräng Dance Camp in Sweden, and soon will be traveling to various countries in Europe to share her love of Vernacular Jazz dances. Ursula has also been on the board of directors for The Fort Worth Swing Dance Syndicate, and served as president of The Dallas Swing Dance Society.

Ursula takes pleasure in collaborating with fellow artists and social dancing in the DFW area and enjoys teaching dance to students of all ages. She is an absolute joy to watch and learn from.
