When I lived in Novi MI, they were doing the Michigan hustle on board the ferry to Bobbi Island. One young man was great. He did it very much the same way as you, but his movements were more exaggerated. I wished I had known how to do it. They did show us.
This "Michigan Hustle" is what a lot of people know as the Electric Slide! Like the Hustle, there are different version of the Electric Slide, but this is the most well-known and popular for many years. This version is distinct with its 18-step sequence - 2 sets of 8 beats, plus a 2 beat turn.
Oh wow! Isn’t it amazing how we can call the same dance by a different name depending on where we’re from or even how we learned it? Thank you so much for your comment! It wouldn’t surprise me if in certain parts of Michigan, they know this as the Electric Slide. Funny, I grew up in up always calling it the Hustle until I learned the more “popular” version of it. Our variations verbally and physically are beautiful!
I don't know where you're getting these steps from. But the hustle started early 1973 and Saturday night fever was nowhere in sight and you're doing some of them to move some Saturday night fever so you can do your own step but that's not the original from 1973 there's a couple different versions but that line dance one of them was the bus stop that was popular in New York New Jersey so you probably need to do your homework a little bit before you going to start teaching everybody up the line dances
