Biography:

Paula Grace has enjoyed creating and designing from the age of 8 years old. But her creativity was awakened when she had the opportunity to work with a local leather designer. She fell in love with the soft suppleness and substantial richness that leather gives. Paula's creativity turned into a passion when she discovered belly dance. The colors, layers of textiles, the flash and jingle of coins and metals offered her a home to be as free and creative as the dance. She is the owner of Gilded Gypsy. Paula is the director of the troupe Totem and founding member of the troupe Signet Tribal. She holds certifications in General and Modern Skills from Fat Chance Belly Dance®, Floor Work and Levels Certification from Prana Dance Co. and teaches ATS® in Austin. Paula currently performs at the Puffin inside the Texas Renaissance Festival and the Scallywags Raks at the Pirate Territory in the Sherwood Forest Faire.
