The
Hustle (Club Style) is characterized by
an extremely smooth look, with the dancers
turning, rotating, and moving around the
floor with seamless motion and minimal vertical
movement or bounce. It is a three-count
dance, danced as “& - 1 –
2 – 3” to four-count music.
Although the Hustle is generally danced
to four/ four timing music, it also fits
three/four time music to which one would
traditionally dance the waltz.
Overall, the Hustle is a dance that was
born as an adaptation to the new music of
the disco craze, but has survived as a dance
that has and will continue to grow with
the times, trends and needs of the dancing
public. It is a versatile dance with chameleon
qualities that make it a highly effective
tool in the beginner dancer's “playbook”. |
