Reviews For College & Professional, Pre/Professional, Jazz Intensive

“As a dancer, the College & Professional Intensive at Gus Giordano Dance School was one of my favorite things I have ever done. Taking class with dancers that were trained directly by Gus was an experience I can't quite describe. I left each class recognizing both a strength and a weakness that they encouraged me to hone. They preached that as jazz dancers, we "can not only be just dancers, but we must be performers." With a goal of becoming a Broadway dancer, this was music to my ears and the perfect intensive for me. The College & Professional Intensive encompasses training that pushes dancers to be the total package I have gained a tremendous amount of information about not only the Chicago dance scene, but the dance world as a whole. College/Pro showed me that not only are technique and personality important in your role as a dancer, but work ethic, attention to detail, understanding your body and being confident do not go unnoticed. Being at the School is something that if I had the opportunity to do again, I'd jump at the chance in a heartbeat. LONG LIVE JAZZ!” — Dancer 24yrs

“We couldn't be happier that our daughter discovered GUS®. My daughter participated in the Pre/Professional Intensive this summer. They teach dance at a very high level, while maintaining strong values and a wonderful sense of good sportsmanship. It's truly wonderful to see our daughter dancing her heart out each day. The teachers at GUS® have absolutely gone above and beyond and created a learning environment that brings so much joy to my daughter. I am blown away.” — Parent of Dancer 16yrs

“My two daughters attended the Jazz Intensive and absolutely loved it! They both have finished each day saying how much fun they are having and that they are learning so much about technique. The staff have been professional and informative every step of the way. We highly recommend Gus Giordano Dance Studio! Thank you for giving my daughters a summer dance experience they will always remember!” — Parent of Dancers 12yrs & 14yrs
