Celebrate what it means to be young and filled with possibility and
passion. From Jordan Matter, author of Dancers Among Us with more
than 100,000 copies in print and a social media star with over
800,000 followers, comes his most irrepressible project yet, Born
to Dance. Using his special gift for photographing dancers in the
midst of daily life and focusing it on kids between the ages of 4
and 17, Matter captures a sense of exuberance and joy - what it
must feel like to be a young dancer and perform the amazing,
gravity-defying things that your body can do. Every girl and boy in
the book feels that they were born to dance, and they imbue every
common action - hanging at the playground, walking on the beach,
eating in the cafeteria, waiting in line at the movies, playing a
game with friends - with beauty, humour, and surprise. They twirl,
they bounce, they stand on point, and they flip. They bend backward
at an impossible angle, leap so high it makes you gasp, and jump in
a way that it seems they're levitating. The result, through Jordan
Matter's incredible ability to capture the exact right moment, is a
visual appreciation of childlike joy and sadness, resilience and
energy. Chapters are introduced with Matter's charming personal
stories and include "When I Grow Up," "Do They Like Me?" and "I Can
Do It." Photos are accompanied by inspiring quotes from the
dancers, making it a perfect gift for every dance fan and the
parents, teachers, friends, and family who support them. Telling a
story that makes people gasp and smile through photography is
Jordan Matter's mission. Born To Dance does this by conveying
memorable, unique, extraordinary moments and rites of childhood
through amazing, often gravity-defying dance positions. Dancers
from 4-17 enact sleepovers, first crushes, the joy of an ice cream
cone, feeling left out, having a best friend, going swimming and
many more joys and trials of childhood.
