Jordan's style reflects her training with Ibrahim Farrah, Mahmoud Reda, Shareen El Safy, Suhaila Salimpour, Yousrey Sharef, Dahlena, Tasha Banat, Mo Geddawi, and Dunia, as well as influence from many of Egypt's and the local area's top performers. Her abilities range from folkloric to cabaret. Her style caught the interest of composer Ibrahim El Samahy.  His composition for her, titled Jordan, is featured on the Star Dance, Vol. 3 cassette, and features some of the greatest musicians in Egypt.  

 

 

Previous to becoming a performing dancer, Jordan worked as a singer and musician. She also works as an emcee for various events.  Retiring from performing, Jordan has continued to teach seminars and short-term classes, as well as continued her own dance studies. Missing performing with a troupe, Jordan accepted an invitation to join Sultan's Delight.
