Choreographer Amy Jordan Will Have Book Signing at ArtSTAGE Performing Arts Center
Amy Jordan, dancer, choreographer and motivational speaker, will read from her new book, Dance Because You Can, on Sunday, January 13 at 1 pm at ArtStage Performing Arts Center, 801 Maplewood Drive in Jupiter. Admission is free, and books will be available for purchase and signing.
In Dance Because You Can: 5 Steps to Transform Trauma into Triumph (Outskirts Press), Jordan lays out a simple plan to guide readers through life's inevitable challenges and transform trauma into triumph.
Jordan developed D.A.N.C.E. while facing major physical and spiritually crises. She has faced more than her fair share of life challenges - from childhood diabetes and a serious eating disorder to a horrific accident that shattered her physically and spiritually.
Today, Amy's life looks very different. She is founder and Artistic Director of the Victory Dance Project, a professional company based in New York City. "Sweet Enuff," Movement, a diabetes and obesity prevention program she founded for kids, was a finalist for First Lady Michelle Obama's "End Childhood Obesity Challenge." And, after dozens of painful surgeries, she recently danced for the first time since her accident. A documentary on her journey will be released this Spring.

She used the five D.A.N.C.E. steps to guide her recovery. It wasn't always easy, but with a plan, perseverance, and determination, she reclaimed her life. In this book, Amy shares the steps readers can follow to overcome any challenges or obstacles holding them back.
ArtStage Performing Arts Center is located at 801 Maplewood Drive, Suite 22A in Jupiter, Florida.
