“Gus Giordano’s contributions to jazz dance are vast and his role in transforming it into a credible American art form cannot be over-emphasized. Gus created the powerful and joyous Giordano Technique and formed the organization that became Giordano Dance Chicago (America’s original jazz dance company), whose mission is to preserve and promote the Giordano technique.
In this 75-minute workshop, participants will explore the foundational element of the Giordano Technique: all Movement initiates from the center/core, and results in movement that is grounded, athletic, and powerful. The Giordano Technique is never artificial or mechanical but lives through a constant flow of energy outward, always emanating from within”
