The Hustle: NYC’s original partnered dance w/ Alessandra Marconi

 The Hustle: NYC’s original partnered dance w/ Alessandra Marconi

Tuesdays, 7 – 9pm // 13-Sep thru 6-Dec
$15

A social dance born and bred in 1970’s New York City has resurfaced among the new generation of social dancers.  Alessandra teaches a traditional Hustle foundation that focuses on 3-count rhythmic synchronicity of leader and follower and the responsibility of each to create a balanced partnership. Social dancing is an outlet to communicate without words, listen to disco classics and contemporary mixes of funk and soul. Above all, to have fun!

-Open levels, class will be taught accordingly.

-Dance partners are not required to attend the class.  Partners will be made in class and rotate throughout its duration.

NYC’s social dance community grabbed Alessandra Marsconi’s attention one night three years ago at a house music dance club.  Recognizing the close knit connection that social dance has between communication and society felt to her like second nature.  Marconi soon discovered Hustle dance and humbly became a student of notable OGs like Alex Kim, John Merisier and Domingo Cruz. Alessandra is a versatile artist who works professionally as a dancer, writer and artistic collaborator.  She moved to New York City 7 years ago, graduated from Marymount Manhattan College and has since spent several months performing in Europe and Asia.
