This in NOT Latin Hustle. This form is historically known as Street, Syncopated, or 3 Count Hustle. I'm a trained Latin Hustle dancer & dance historian. Latin Hustle is a 6 count based dance. The basic is tap step in place on 12, then back coaster step 3 &4, followed by two forward walks towards your partner on 56. There is ample period documentation in both video & print to prove my statements. Please appropriately label your video & do learn the Latin Hustle it is excellent albeit different.
@Dancefusion You're absolutely right. As 51 year former club kid, dj, dance instructor and amatuer musicologist... I have to completely back you up on this. This "Rope" or "Street" Hustle that they are showing here... is the "Hustle" dance that was assimilated (and codified) into the ballroom studios in the late 70's/ early 80's. New York Latin Hustle (with the tap and coaster steps) seems to have been overshadowed by W.C.S. due to W.C.S.'s popularity in mainstream America.
@GordonBeckles, you are right on about the WCS assimilation of Hustle they took so many elements of hustle evolution. I think it's great what WCS has become, I just wish they preserved the hustle form as well and gave it some credit.
@Dancefusion You are correct. This is not the Latin Hustle of the 70s and early 80s. Does anyone remember the "Push"? Awesome style that I still teach and incorporate in my West Coast Swing.
@jonibaloney2003, I do...it's a form of WCS that evolved in Texas. Very few people know this form anymore. It really isn't taught either. If I wasn't a collector and researcher I probably wouldn't have studied it. The social dance world has left if behind. It is interesting though and I own several videos on it that are excellent.
