Stanley Urban is an American former ice dancer. With Sally Schantz, he won the 1963 U.S. Championships, and later won a further two medals at the U.S. Championships competing with his sister Susan Urban.

Urban, who was from Buffalo, New York, was a student at Boston College at the time he competed with Schantz.[1] They were unable to defend their national title in 1964 because Urban was injured playing intramural football and had his leg in a cast for seven weeks. Schantz decided to turn professional at that time to take a coaching position.[2] The following season, Urban returned to competition partnered with his sister Susan.
