Hustle 4-Week Series in Norwalk, CT

Four Mondays for Beginners and Intermediates
December 5, 12, 19 & 26

Hustle is the partner dance that originated in the 1970s in NYC and the metropolitan cities of the United States. It is designed to be dynamic and flashy. Its core steps are not too complicated, and its requirement for motion and agility make this a perfect dance for club music and parties. This four-week series will contain two two tracks—one for beginners to get them social dancing and one for intermediates who already have experience to develop their proficiency. Hustle is an essential part of your social dance repertoire.

Schedule

7:15pm: Check-in for 1st Class

During our check-in process we will take your temperature, have you sign a waiver (if this is your first time at the studio), answer some health questions, wash your hands, and enter the studio. Our doors will remain closed once the class begins. Please bring your own water. 

7:30pm: Hustle for Beginners (Week 1)

 Your Hustle journey begins with this class. We will explore the basic timing of the dance and some of foundational patterns like the hesitation step, the wheel, and the crossbody. 

There will be 15 minutes of social dancing after this class. 

8:45pm: Hustle for Intermediates (Week 1)

This week will use an intermediate pattern to explore challenging movement. 
Note: If you are an intermediate dancer (already have taken a beginner series with Erik), you must also take the beginner class to attend the Intermediate class. If you are a beginner, you should only take the "Hustle for Beginners" class. 

9:45pm - 10:00pm: Social Dancing

Enjoy some time dancing and socializing! This is where the magic happens. The more you dance, the better your dance will become.
