Jordan Marinov: Dancer, Choreographer, Director
Jordan’s dancing has taken her around the world -- from NYC to the Russian Embassy in D.C., to Cyprus. She has worked as a dancer, actress, choreographer and model for film, television, commercial, music video and concert works. She has had the pleasure of working with Kathryn Bigelow for HBO as an actress, choreographer and casting director. Jordan also appears in the music video Trail of Blood by actor & hip-hop artist Slaine directed by Los Silva.
Jordan is currently artist director of Marinov Dance, which, in collaboration with Red Dress Films created The Intimacies Project: a series of daring multi-media events about relationships and the impossibility of love. The Intimacies Project film was recently screened on the Grand Screen at Tribeca Grand. The project earned a space grant from Chashama, the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, The Fashion Center BID, and the Times Square Alliance to perform in NYC. Marinov Dance was commissioned to set work and perform at the Rio Grande Theatre in New Mexico. Her dancing and choreography can also be seen in Bill Hayward’s upcoming film Asphalt, Muscle and Bone. Marinov’s work has also been danced at Dance Theater Workshop, John Jay College, Galapagos, Winter Garden in the World Financial Center, Rover and Bill Hayward’s studio.
Jordan completed a BFA in Dance magna cum laude from Marymount Manhattan College and trains celebrity and high profile clients in yoga, personal training and her own movement modality both privately and as the lead instructor at Greenwich Hotel in Tribeca.
"When [her impossibly long legs] are fully engaged, it seems that the tiny space will not contain them. Marinov is an especially compelling artist, with sharp features, raven hair, and lithe body...the dancing is energetic, at times bordering on violent. At times...expresses an animal tenderness."
