Giordano jazz technique can be said to foundational, as well, in that it has. evolved into a comprehensive training system for the dancer and that it makes a. clear imprint on the body. Singular Elements of the Giordano Jazz Class The most unique aspect of Gus's technique is that it compels the body, especially the armworlc, into a rigorous relationship to space. My guess is that at least some of this derives from his own studies in modem in the Holm technique, which, emerging from the Laban-Wigman Central European dance philosophy, is strongly space-conscious, (see Figures . and . ). Billy Siegenfeld, 1998).
