Grace Ludwinski
Grace Ludwinski (guest performer) is a lifelong dancer, starting from the age of 4. She devoted much of her childhood and adolescence to dance, participating in competition dance, ballet summer intensives, and dance festivals. She received her BA in dance from Chapman University in Orange, CA. In her professional career before Full Circle, she has danced with multiple contemporary modern companies including Kairos Dance, been represented by Bloc Agency for commercial dance, danced with Royal Caribbean, performed in multiple music videos for small and upcoming artists, and danced with Agora Artists in their annual SEEDS show. Grace's main professional interests are in modern and concert dance, but she loves dance and movement of all kinds, including ballet, jazz, and hip-hop; improvisation and contact improvisation; and salsa and bachata. She is also a certified 200-hour Registered Yoga Teacher, a certified nutrition coach, and a calisthenics athlete. She considers art to be her life's work, and she lives each day playing and creating, no matter what she's doing.
"Dance has always been a part of me; no matter what's going on in my life, I'm always dancing, even if it's just alone in my room or in a public park. But while I'm grateful to always have that personal connection to dance, it's only half of the equation for my personal fulfillment. Being able to share my love of dance with others, both audience members and those I dance with, completes the full circle for me." - Grace
