Ultimate Cheerleaders

Going Pro Expo Launches in Chicago on June 24

Going Pro Entertainment broadens its reach beyond pro dance and cheerleading in summer 2012 presenting the Going Pro Expo in Chicago on Sunday, June 24. 2012.

“Going Pro Entertainment was founded on serving the professional cheerleading and dance industry,” says founder Laura Eilers, 6-year NFL cheerleader. “We realize that pro dance crosses into many other genres such as fitness, pageantry and modeling. Pro dance alumni are often asking ‘What’s next?’ and find success in fitness competitions or broadcasting. Likewise, many pro dancers have their roots in pageants or promotion work. The topics we discuss as pro cheerleaders are applicable to so many other women who want to look and feel great. Therefore, Going Pro is proud to partner with Hi Fi Fitness in Chicago to launch our new event format: the Going Pro Expo!”

On Sunday, June 24, the Chicago Going Pro Expo will offer workshops, shopping, networking and choreographers throughout the day. A single ticket admission starts at $12.00 and will allow attendees free entry to a number of presentations and vendors. Choreography session tickets should be purchased separately, which includes event entry.

Meanwhile, active workshops allow attendees to meet and share ideas with outstanding professionals including Wynne Lacey, the director of the NHL Chicago Blackhawks Ice Crew; Mickey Oliver, DJ and creator of local Vegas-style musical Intensi-T; Alberto Daniel, owner of a self titled salon; and Going Pro’s founder Laura Eilers, also the reigning 2011 Ms. United States.

Choreographers include Rebecca Girard, former director of the Detroit Pistons Automotion Dance Team, Gloria Esposito, current director of the Chicago Adrenaline Rush Dance Team, and Melanie Austin, former Indiana Pacers dancer and contestant on Season 3 So You Think You Can Dance.
