Remember the '70s? John Travolta in the white polyester suit in Saturday
Night Fever? That was the Hustle, but just like a lot
of other things that have changed in the last 20 years,
the Hustle has changed a lot too. The Hustle was
born in New York's Latin community. The mainstream young people caught on to
the music and the dance style and Hustle quickly became hugely
popular all
over America and Europe, fueled in part by the movie. As Hustle developed, many
different styles emerged. Hustle is still popular today and is
danced to the
contemporary pop dance music of the last 20 years. It is a fast, smooth
dance, with a rhythmic pattern which plays with the timing of the music.
