The real Hustle style from NYC.... I'm OG from Brooklyn, NY from the 70's.... Thank you posting this video
I was a professional hustle dancer & I have to say this style of dancing is timeless! It will never go out of style and that makes me makes me happy :)
How true!! I had to pair this video with Quincy Jones "Betcha Wouldn't hurt Me"... PERFECT!!!
I am SO glad to have found this video!!! It brings back great memories of when I could dance like this. I found DISCO right after high school in 1976. A gang of us would drive 50 miles away into the city to go to an amazing club with a great dance floor. I was absolutely amazed watching the dancers who had the steps down and I busted my butt to learn to dance like this myself. I’m in my mid 60’s now and too arthritic to even think of trying to dance like this again,but my heart is soaring just watching. This video clip took me back to a wonderful place and time, and I think I watched it 10 times in a row! LOVE LOVE LOVE this video!!!
I said once and I'll say it again, this couple are one of THEE BEST hustle dancers I've ever seen.
You haven't seen much😂
FANTASTIC! I love when they switch it up and she leads while he does flourishes and turns. An improvised demonstration?!? COÑO!, They are so good.
I love it too. Switch the energy yet keep it the same. Just beautiful.
This is true Hustle dancing...brings back memories late 1970’s-1980’s with my late husband who was my dance partner .....we won many competitions with this style of dance!!! Memories sweet memories...
Ice Palace snd Limelight! Danceateria was a hot blast too

Hi!!!! I love the ny style. My brother just sent me this video and told me that you were teaching in NJ? Are you still teaching? If so, is it in NY tri-state area?
Yo yo yo put up some more of this original hustle cause someone has to represent 70s & 80s w the real shit. It's about time God bless these dancers for showing this
such fond memories, my uncle used to hustle at clubs in NYC in 79-80 and he would use me for practice 😊I was only 12 but I was tall...
Fantastic dancing. Never saw better Hustle dancing! These two are pros !
This is how my mom danced back in the 70’s NYC😎
So smooth, sensual and classy. I really enjoyed watching her and he surprised me at the end by showing off his moves. Loved it!❤️
I grew up dancing like this and many boys would cut in to dance with me my partner would let them for a little bit it was so much fun. It builds up your stamina and I had the best legs haha. I never got tired of dancing. My sister would also dance and the two of us would dance with our partners and take over the dance floor people would watch and part the floor to watch us. Looked easy but we practiced and danced so much we looked like the pros. This brought back so many memories. Loved this! They are great dancers here are both amazing and make it look so easy.
Dancing the Hustle is a fabulous form of exercise. I was there for the beginning and I'm still doing it!
I so love this! The quintessential hustle. When I think of hustle, this is what I envision it to be, and the dancers here are flawless and gifted. To me, this is sublime dancing!!!! Takes me back to a more beautiful and precious times.❤️❤️❤️
Dear Lord, I just paired this beautiful Hustle dance to Quincy Jones "Betcha wouldn't Hurt me"... man!! what a beautiful pair of music and dance....
What's so wonderful about this, is that virtually every bit of this is just a handful of basic steps, but all put together into different combinations. It looks wonderful to the casual viewer, it feels tons of fun to do, and you can do it for hours on end, all night long (if you're in shape, anyway), without much thought as to what you're doing because after a short time, it feels as natural as walking. Wonderful demonstration to give to people who want to learn how to do this terrific dance. And for those who might worry about such things, you don't need to use the whole dance floor; you can remain in a small area of your own as the dance floor gets crowded, and still do a lot of moves. But when the opportunity arises, such as at the beginning of the dance floor being opened up, you can quickly drag your partner up and put on a spectacle like this for the crowd to watch. So learn it, and go have fun!
FIERCE!!! LOVE IT! SO MUCH FUN BACK IN THE DAY !!
So beautiful. This is the real hustle.
I’m so lucky I found a dance partner here in Raleigh that does the real NY Hustle like I do. Agreed, more videos needed.
Yesss! The Hustle is probably one of my favorite dances.
MARIA TORRES BEST IN NYC
Thank you!
Maria Torres OConnor I always wanted to hustle like u
H were the bestest best
Now that’s what I am talking about!!! The real hustle from back in da day only by us....
Outstanding!!! I remember the Hustle was HUGE in the Bronx NYC during that time(my younger brother was my partner) searched for videos on The Hustle every other video on this dance was watered down and not accurate, but these 2 did their thing...on every level...style..moves...improviser skills...spins...taking turns being the lead...just a great example and look back at something that is missing in music today...Back int he day the dance was as important as the song..it had to not only be relate able but also Dance able...Thank you for this..
Yes…they killed it…so dope when she took the lead…that’s The Hustle 🏆
Chills. Chills. Every time. And such a beautiful person, too. I miss her.
That's EXACTLY how it is done. on Friday and Saturday nights, that was expected.
IMHO there will not be another period like that in American social history for a very long time.
Wow! I love how she starts leading him halfway through, that's awesome! I know most of those steps, but somehow, I don't look quite that good doing them LOL :)
Oh Maria, I watched you so many times whirling it at the clubs and you inspired me so much. How fierce you and Arte (rip) and Eddie (rip) danced together. They turned you out!!!
I have seen so many clips of fierce hustling but not one of my good friend Butchy (rip) who I thought was the best floor dancer. The days of watching the greats like Eddie, Arte, Melvin, Carlos, Lisa, big victor, Sammy, Kitty (the ultimate spinner) John and many others are ingrained in my memory and I even dream about those good times. I still play my over 900 albums and whirl it at home alone and LOVE IT! Thank you for keeping the Hustle alive!!!
The real deal....that's how we danced in the Bronx back in the daysss❤, great job. It was fun when guys would cut in, lol!!
BRONX!!!
Great jobThis is also how we danced in Brooklyn. Great great footwork
Such a beautiful dance, I wish dance classes still taught this for couples.
WOW JUST WOW. such talent and skill.
Nothing better than this !!
Magnificent! Representation of the elegance, style, and sophistication of the philosophical, intellectual, and artistic apex of this civilization! Dancers moving in harmony with a fluidity that bespeaks the time-period that enabled everyone of all ethnicities and ages to come together in one place in harmony. Then came the 1980s and precipitous plunge into the intellectual and cultural vacuum. Who could have imagined back then the ugliness to come with such beauty that surrounded us?
Hey no need to dis the 80s Somebody has time period issues. 70s brilliant philosophical wisdom include lyrics like
''ya got to boogie oogie woogie till you just can't boogie no more...boogie no more."
Damn you just SAID IT !!! You know watching this excites the hell out of me, and depresses me at the same time. People don’t dance this way anymore. Such a SHAME ! I learned the steps several years ago. I’m 36 years old, so disco and hustle/ ballroom is before my time, but if you know even the basics of this style of dance it feels soooo AMAZING ! And anybody watching you is sure to be impressed if you and your partner’s feet are landing in sync. But YEEESSSSS what you said !!! This is CLASS, SOPHISTICATION, and VERY ELEGANT indeed !
THANK YOU !!! Hustle is my favorite dance
Well said
Classic NY Hustle. These two compliment each other on the dance floor. .
I Still dance this NY style in the Pacific Northwest
And I’m 67
When I was a kid at my Junior prom and countless weddings I danced the group hustle; after 40+ years I now realize its really a ballroom / disco dance. Hilarious!!!
Great Hustle dancing - shows the spirit of the dance
Beautiful! Loved the switch. ❤
I can tell rythym divine choreo and music choice..u guys are awesome
Wow, this just put a big smile on my face.
Love that lead change at 2:44. :)
Omg, I want to dance like this!
AWESOME!!! Love watching you two 💃🕺🎼
LOVE THIS COUPLE - JUST WONDERFUL!!!
I love this stuff! So tired of seeing so much really bad hustle on youtube. I think the NY Style hustle dancers (myself included) should start posting more often so hustle, when searched for, doesn't bring up lots of "New Style" stuff and give people the wrong idea.
yeah, I was wondering.. As I am exploring different dances and trying to possibly pick up something new (Too modest and old for bachata), I could not believe that the hip people and POC in the '70s danced as mechanically as I am seeing in some of the new hustle videos. I see now the flow and timing they are trying to emulate in the video above. The new hustle stuff I've seen looks a lot like swing dancing. No flow just swing em left -swing em right- twirl them- twirl you. It looks like a great workout though.
Yes this couple u can tell havecdanced together for quite sometime
Have you got videos about this type of dance? I long to learn it
Hustle dancers in Miami could exchange partners all night and dance with a partner they have never danced with and look fantastic on the floor. The kids that I hung out with and danced learned how to dance in the clubs where everyone hustled.
@@Kriegerdammerung I watch and123 channel with current NY hustle scene
Yessss👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾. This was fantastic. When the Leader and dancer move as ☝🏾. So smooth😎🥰
True hustle! Fabulous! Quickest feet ever! Very inspiring!

It seems like yesterday keep the Hustle Alive, My Lifetime Friends ! Love You All til Eternity and then After!!

Beautiful, I'm 57 now, I remember when I use to hustle.
I am 57 and still hustling!!!
evelyn laboy Chicago boy here 66 still hustle kid. nice to c u.
66 AND STILL HUSTLING TOO..Since 1975..San Juan, Puerto Rico learned it..
This was wonderful to watch! I'm 55 and still waiting for disco to come back. Thank God for dances like Salsa, Merengue, and the Carolina Shag, so at least I know that couples still like dancing together in a sensual, graceful way instead of that vertical sex that passes for dancing nowadays. I love to see young kids like this pass the torch...
Damn !!! Why’d y’all stop ??? Should’a kept that slick stuff going !!!!
Yep, makes want to hit the dance floor again, this time around I am 63!
That if freakin AWESOME. THIse two are amazingly amazing, wow.

We knew how it went in those days..it was the only 'high' you needed
love
I just became a dance fan
I'd like to thank the prisoners of the Philippino prison that dances to The Hustle for bringing me here
Wowwwww.... fantastic.. 😍😍
Disco Dan scores it 10. :) I'm an old Dance Fever dancer. Been to all the clubs in NYC doing dance events. Young lady is very good. Latin girls know how to spin.;) In one event my partners dance changed colors. Dancing to "Relight My Fire" Flames came out of my mouth. Hey it was show time at 54. Great dancing by this young couple. Marie could do a perfect coffee grinder. She bends her knees. Keeps one foot planted and let's the other leg balance her as she spins close to the floor. :)
Everyone talkin 'back in the days' like its prehistoric. We doin it and everything else in ballroom dance studios and takin it to the clubs, today. It does impress, I do say. But I like to keep posture, I believe all dances look much more elegant with correct position and posture.
My favorite dane vice of all time!
OG style from NYC... The Hustle was born in NYC from the Latin/ Salsa moves
Best hustle ever
Awesome 👏🏼
Fabulous ❤!
Excellent!!
WOMEN LOVE A GUY WHO DANCES
Beautiful.
The real deal. Just gliding across the floor
Hustle is life.
Stay in his arms girl
