Profile
Fire is a truly captivating element. People of all ages and from all nations people are drawn to its magnetic allure.
Fire performance is a fresh and exciting style of visual performance art and Grace Billings is at the cutting-edge of this field delivering extraordinary fire performances.
Grace was born and raised in Melbourne, Australia. She began fire dancing about eight years ago and since then has been producing, choreographing and performing fire shows throughout the world. Grace has worked extensively with a group she co-founded called FlameOz, one of the most largely successful and recognised fire troupes in the world today. Through this particular performance art, Grace has been able to extend and integrate many of her other skills like choreography, teaching, costume design, set and props design, fire equipment engineering, and on a physical level circus, yoga and dance. Graces Passion for movement combined with precision and skill is evident in any one of her diverse assortment of circus and dance acts. The reason I stay so inspired by this art form is because its something that keeps evolving to greater levels of complexity and skill, yet the basics is accessible by anyone, either for enjoyment or to use as exercise to benefit health and wellbeing.
Graces work has taken her to many different countries all over the globe, performing for some very prestigious people, companies and events. Safety is of paramount concern to Grace. A professional, practiced approach to fire safety has given her an unblemished safety record. She is covered by public liability insurance, and uses specialized odourless / smokeless fuels whenever available.
