VICTORY DANCE PROJECT 

Amy Jordan’s dance training and career span more than three decades, with studies and performances in New York, Los Angeles, and Miami. Trained in ballet, jazz, modern, and hip-hop, she worked with renowned choreographers including Michael Peters, Michael Rooney, and Joe Lanteri. In 2014, she founded The Victory Dance Project, which premiered to a sold-out audience at the Alvin Ailey Center for Dance with the full-length contemporary ballet Human Revolution.

​

Diagnosed with juvenile diabetes at age four, Amy discovered that dance could be both a creative outlet and a powerful tool for discipline and health. This passion later led her to create the nationally recognized SWEET ENUFF Movement, a youth program focused on diabetes and obesity prevention through dance fitness, community support, and nutrition education. In 2013, the program was named a top-five national finalist in First Lady Michelle Obama’s End Childhood Obesity Challenge.

​

After surviving a life-threatening accident in 2009 that left doctors unsure if she would walk again, Amy relied on the same discipline and resilience she learned through dance to make a remarkable recovery. Inspired by that journey, she founded The Victory Dance Project with a mission: to make the impossible possible through the power of movement.

​

Today, Amy uses dance, coaching, and motivational speaking to inspire people facing chronic illness, trauma, rehabilitation, and personal challenges—helping others transform adversity into strength through movement.
