Short for ‘Swing Hustle’ now often called the New York Hustle, was borrowed from numerous dance styles including Swing, Latin and Smooth Ballroom (incorporating it’s traveling movements and pivots.)  Due to the speed of Hustle, it is essential for the Leader and Follower to maintain eye contact as often as possible. The dancers should maintain a ‘rubber-like’ quality between them, moving away from the common center on all break steps and then rebounding to their next step.
