Aleksandra "Ola" Jordan (née Grabowska; born October 1982, Nasielsk, Poland) is a Latin dance specialist best known for her appearances on the British TV show Strictly Come Dancing. She married her professional dance partner James Jordan in 2003.
Ola has been dancing since the age of twelve when her school advertised for a dance club. Prior to dancing with James Jordan, she had danced with Przemek Lowicki in Poland. James and Aleksandra's first recorded dance as a partnership was in the Dutch Open in 2000, though they did not turn professional until 2003. The couple retired for a while to teach Latin American dancing in Hong Kong, though they turned professional again in 2005, after missing competing.
In May 2006, the couple came second in the Blackpool Professional Rising Stars Latin event, and in November they came third in the British Championships for Professional Latin.
