Giordano’s works are characterized by what has come to be known as “jazz hands,” which have the fingers spread and filled with energy, usually vibrating from side to side. Other traits associated with Giordano choreographies include isolated body movements, an active pelvis and unusual shoulder movement and placement along with vigorous leaps, turns and traveling movements.

Giordano frequently featured plies, which are a bending of the knees, prominently, which he associated with African cultures and their connection to the earth. His arms and torso position were often stylishly open and slightly concave. He also featured “counterforce,” which is an isometric contraction to resist the primary motion to create an impression of strength and vitality, rather than a smooth and graceful movement characterized in other dance styles.
