Most of these people probably weren't even born yet when the Hustle came out -- but it's timeless and watching them let loose and have so much fun is putting a huge smile on MY face!
When I learned this dance in gym class in '77, there was no 'Travolta'. I'm not sure where the heck that came from, but it's different from the original way people danced it in the 70's. It's easier, though, and plays into the fun of the 70's vibe and nostalgia. And who doesn't love the Travolta? Dance on! :)
What a wonderful video you guys. I used to dance but never learned the complete hustle. I will be practicing now. Thank you I think you did well everyone!!
I've been listening to this song since I was a kid in the 1970s and this is the first hustle tutorial I've ever seen. I was doing my best to do the dance steps with the people in the video so thank you for posting!
very, very close to the Hustle we originally did...NO ONE "pointed" with a finger....We simply kept our fingers together in a graceful "wave" style. So glad I'm old!
This is really close to The Hustle that we did - it was so great. I loved my platform shoes - we just had great calves to keep our Candies on and stay vertical! I don't know if anyone knows (or really wants to know) but the guys with long hair, shades, etc., are dressed like the 60's, not the mid 1970's when The Hustle was popular. No peace signs then. The instructor looks like the disco ladies of the time! We had so much fun and I loved the video! Really took me back. Thanks and Keep on Truckin'.
Hello Jeanette, Ah yes, the Deborah Harry Candie's , weren't those the bomb? It's a shame things can't stay the way we remember them, but true classics never really go out of style, boogie on !
Were good years Jeanette. We did our Hustle in the George pub, Northfield, lol The Rum Runner, Snobs, Rebeccas, Barbarellas, The Lecarno...ohhhh the dayyyyys 👍
I agree, except…in the Midwest, St. Louis area, in Disco Era, us girls either wore disco dresses or bell bottoms &halter tops and a lot of guys still had long hair, flared pants, tight, pointed collar shirts. We all wore platform shoes and Peace signs&gold chains were very popular. There were a lot of Discos in the Bi-state counties of St. Louis Metro area and across the river in Illinois. So many great memories!
@@lindalouise4340 Hi Linda!!!! If I had lived in your area, and had known you, we could have had the best fun! Thanks for your comment. I miss those days so much!!!😃
I learned this dance in high school gym class in the mid to late 70s. This was definitely the Hustle I learned. Never would and never will dance this way in heels. Edit I think this dance was performed to the song Night Fever in Saturday Night Fever.
Learned to do this while in the Army by one of the doctors I worked with who taught us how to do this and other dances during our breaks and lunchtime...
@@starluna03 Yes because I lived in a small town in NZ that only had one primary school and one High School ... at 11 you left the primary school and went straight to the high school into form one class because we did not have an intermediate school because the population wasn't big enough. Now the population of said town is even smaller and the primary school I went to has gone and all that remains is the one high school for children of all ages and is now known as the Area School' ... so next time you doubt someone or question their credibility try to think beyond your limited imagination and bear in mind that you might just not know it all after all.
@@booth2710 I noticed it too but I thought it was a typo and assumed there was more to it, nobody would make that kind of error to deceive people...too obvious. I loved your comment to put this buffoon in his place. LMAO..😂. Society has so many of these people trying to show their superiority and moral compass, it makes them feel important , when in fact it blows up in their face. LOVE IT!!!!
There's a vid of Pan's People dancing to this on Top of the Pops back in '75. No idea what they were dancing, and they probably didn't know either, but it sure wasn't The Hustle!
Por fin algo parecido a HUSTLE, la vestimenta que la mayoría está usando es estilo HIPIE, moda qué terminó en 1973,1974 ya que la música Disco 70 inició un 14 de Noviembre de 1974 y en 1975 ya se terminaron la minifalda, collares de Amor y Paz, botas largas etc. imperó la maxifalda, una gran variedad de cortes y peinados en mujeres y hombres, se terminó el pantalón pata de elefante en hombres y mujeres.
This is what life use to be about. Having fun instead of all the negative comments. By the way there are many variations on dances and music depending sometimes to regional, country and etc., plus I believe it says: Hustle Fever Night. Not being there they might be learn different dances associated to the Hustle. Learn to enjoy life and have fun stop worrying about the little things.
Well, those days are long gone unfortunately sweetie and it seems they won't be coming back anytime soon. It's sad but the unfortunate reality we live in.
When we used to do the "old school" hustle in BK, we never had to count off anything. We just got on the floor and did our thing. As a female, if you got a man that was a good leader, you could basically clear the floor.
We didn't do the "Saturday Night Fever- John Travolta" hustle. The movement with the arms is hilarious. Check out old clips of Soul Train to see how to hustle.
That is because this song came out two years before the movie. This is some hybrid version of the original dance and the movie dance. The arm stuff was definitely not in the original dance. I've only been able to find one video that has the original dance.
I can never get through this song with the proper dance. After about 30 seconds I start spinning in circles and gliding around in some mutated version of The Hustle...lol.… Same with “Loves Theme“ by Love Unlimited Orchestra. 😀💕
Folks, take a look at the official music video of the Van McCoy song, the Hustle. There you will see the dance that went with the song. Several versions, but all with 2 people as partners, not a line dance
This was in Saturday Night Fever. It is NOT the original dance called the Hustle! As someone suggested, watch some old episodes of Soul Train to see how to do the Hustle. It's done with a partner, not a line dance!
For about the first half of this video, the guy on the far left looks a lot like Victor Arroyo from Big Brother 18... Nicole's guy and partner on this years Amazing Race.
We had to learn this in dance class in the seventh grade. We did much better than these adults are doing...of course, , most of us knew it from the movie long before dance class
i have a question,theres kind of a version of this for country and then theres another one version that everybody knows in the us and does it like in weddings and parties,what is that one called?
oooh my God, I am in love with that woman in the brown dress and black pantys and her long beauitiful long brown hair. She is a gift from heaven with her constantly sweet smile. Who is she ??????
Sequence is not the same as in the movie. After the 360 vine, kick ball change, skate, disco point, roll hands, chicken, etc. .....watch the movie again. You missed the kick ball change and skate. Maybe that's how you do this in California. The rest of the moves are great!
bigkozlov Apparently, there were several different dances back then that were named "The Hustle". One of them was a line dance, like this, and another was a couples dance.
The Hustle was being danced for two years before Saturday Night Fever came out. So, to me, this is not the true dance for The Hustle. It never had that stupid Travolta move.
This made me happy and for the first time since I learned I had cancer, got me up dancing! Thank you!
ah hope you get well
I hope you are doing better, Flora!
Hello hope your doing well.
😊
How are you doing now? I hope and pray you are doing great!❤
Most of these people probably weren't even born yet when the Hustle came out -- but it's timeless and watching them let loose and have so much fun is putting a huge smile on MY face!
I so miss the this era of music and dance…good times growing up and learning dance steps to GOOD MUSIC!
"The Hustle" came out when I was about 7 years old. Remember it from the radio so clearly.
Good to see someone still teaching steps to the hustle. Thanks.
Toby Fox Did you know that she's not teaching the hustle? THIS is hustle......... th-cam.com/video/fmcmOGsV6tU/w-d-xo.html
Thee Instructor here is really great. 💯
I used to know how to do it in the early 70's. Most popular dance then..

The lady in the green pants. Bless her heart. 😍😂
She will eventually catch on...

Oh my gosh, my Candies. Rock-hard formed plastic shoes with a strap down by my toes, but I'd dance till closing time in them!

I've seen several videos giving instructions and this one is the best
This sure brings back the good old dance days .. we didnt have these videos to learn by now its great to see this ~
Total respect to the woman teaching this in those heels! I could barely walk in those!
BRAVO BRAVO BRAVO excellent ladys and gentleman's. I love it thank you

GREAT NEWS! LIVING A LIFE THROUGH THE LIVING GRACE OF GOD, THE JESUS CHRIST, PERSONIFIED IN THE FLESH FOR ALL CHRISTIANS!
Were you in my gym class? *jazz hands*
These events are always so fun. Need to go to more of these.
Love this song and dance steps wonderful ❤️ memories Thank you
Trying to learn how to dance this I love this song 🤩
Nice the music and bring back this line dance I love ❤️
thank you. we just opened our Line dance class with New Amazing instructor Julia. thursdays 4:30 pm. discounted price for comunity!
I wished that they would bring this back again, as it was the very first line dance in the 1970s.
Thank you for this! You are awesome.
Learned to do this while in the Army by one of the doctors I worked with who taught us how to do this and other dances during our breaks and lunchtime...
I had so much fun watching this. Couldn't do it myself...
Good tutorial! Thank you for posting!🌹
The guy in khaki slacks with white shirt and tie in the back gets my vote :)
I remember doing this dance at High school when I was 11 years old ... now I'm 50 but still remember the moves ...
Richard Booth high school when you were eleven. Real believable.
Hey, you still can shake that groove thing!

I was eighteen when the song came out and working as a truck mechanic and when that song would come on we would do that dance on the shop floor
beatiful song and the dance
Marco the boy in the white shirt and red tie knows how to get down!!!
Great job guys
Love it. UK Hustle was a little different. Couples Hustle was yum 👍🤗
There's a vid of Pan's People dancing to this on Top of the Pops back in '75. No idea what they were dancing, and they probably didn't know either, but it sure wasn't The Hustle!
We did this in gym class when I was in elementary school.... It was loads of fun😁👍
Our elementary school had dances, and we do this dance when the song came on.
The instructor looks like Liza Minelli. Beautiful!
Beautifuuuuuuuuuuuuullllllll!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

SO GOOD!
I was in Philadelphia in 1975 when the Hustle was popular. It was not a line dance. I was for couple holding hands and doing spins and such.
Grazie! 💖

I’m horrible at dancing on my own but can learn (though it may take me longer than most people to do it well lol depending on the difficulty).

Sensacional ao reconhecimento do legado de Van McCoy 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
The instructor reminds me of Liza Minelli
Yes!
OOOH My God, I love the girl on the left on the first row. She is so beautiful and always smiling. Who is she ???

The Time Warp?
I think you left out the step/ ball change and the “skate” …this is the Saturday Night Fever. Dance!
Great, I can do that.
I wished they showed more of the guy under the disco ball
Nah! you mean the guy with the white shirt and tie!
I think i have figured it out!
This dance was very popular in the 1970's.
In my childhood I only learned the cupid shuffle the electric slide and the cha cha slide never the hussle 😔💔
So 😎 cool
Saturday night 🌃 the purchased of New York .
Liked this tutorial thanks
It's official I will watch ANYTHING
Good one :)
Join the club.
For about the first half of this video, the guy on the far left looks a lot like Victor Arroyo from Big Brother 18... Nicole's guy and partner on this years Amazing Race.
Maan i got duh feeva!!!
The lady in the green pants we’ve all been there sweetie. 👍
Reminds me of Middle School when the class did the Macarena and I kept messing up while everyone else was on beat and on step.
@@varietygameplayandmore8189 awww
Love you all
We had to learn this in dance class in the seventh grade. We did much better than these adults are doing...of course, , most of us knew it from the movie long before dance class
There was one part she forgot to explain that in 2 parts of the song you have to do the walk back and walk forward twice
Yep, it's the only way to get the 3 steps back to start with the right part of the song.
Sad but I would b the lady in the green pants and how did I even end up here🤣🤣
LOL WHATS THIS MY SCHOOL WHATS THIS LIT SAVAGE DAB
🕺💃🕺💃🕺💃
To nowyet silentdust...2 years ago. Yeah, you can. If I can, you can, because I have 2 left feet!
can't imagine doing this in platform heels on a slick floor ha ha
The only way to do it
How to twist your ankle in two easy steps.
i have a question,theres kind of a version of this for country and then theres another one version that everybody knows in the us and does it like in weddings and parties,what is that one called?
Electric slide
Weird. I don't know if she made up this version, but it doesn't look right. But they were having fun so well done.
oooh my God, I am in love with that woman in the brown dress and black pantys and her long beauitiful long brown hair. She is a gift from heaven with her constantly sweet smile. Who is she ??????
So "The Hustle" was the predecessor to "Caballo del rodeo"? Hmmm the more you know i guess.
This got me praying to the gods for a new trans-am.
If you're really cool you'll click your heels together during the chicken wings.
The lorax mom
man the heckler needs a smak
No kidding. What a jerk.
Which song is this? Can someone help me with this track please?
Van McCoy - The Hustle from 1975
The hassle it's fun good way exercise Megan Wilsonim 43 years Jayson webber
Oh! you guys are doing THE BUSSTOP, not The Hustle. Sorry if you were confused by your Gym Teachers and by the SNF movie with Travolta.... smh...
still can not figure out how girls dance in heels
Sequence is not the same as in the movie. After the 360 vine, kick ball change, skate, disco point, roll hands, chicken, etc. .....watch the movie again. You missed the kick ball change and skate. Maybe that's how you do this in California. The rest of the moves are great!
Bus Stop...?
HAHAHA
So where is the song THE HUSTLE
OH! OK
That isn't the hustle we learned in the 70s
Good job guys but hate breaking it to you -it ain't the Hustle.
bigkozlov Apparently, there were several different dances back then that were named "The Hustle". One of them was a line dance, like this, and another was a couples dance.
Are you serious why can't I find the hustle
The Hustle was being danced for two years before Saturday Night Fever came out. So, to me, this is not the true dance for The Hustle. It never had that stupid Travolta move.
Poor young lady in the green pants- this is not her thing
This is The Brooklyn Shuffle not The Hustle. 🤔
Whos granny is this .get her.
That's not the Hustle. It's a really bad version of the Brooklyn Shuffle (see Saturday Night Fever)
Still not the same hustle i learned in the 80s.
@Alain Quartermaine yes.i did more singing in the 70s.more dancing in the 80s.
