Jordan is looking to secure funding for the first stage of R&D for his project-based company Jordan Bridge Dance on a new creation for stage, bringing queer rave culture and diversity at the heart of the work.

Jordan likes to have his work speak from a personal place. An intrinsic movement language and nuances of interconnectivity, sensuality and queer culture drives his creative process, absorbing from own experience and leaning in with an abstract approach to both movement and stylistic decisions which fundamentally ground the work.
