Twelve men and women
learned the Hustle and basic
disco dance movements at the
Community Center’s first dance
class Tuesday evening, Dec
ember 7. Eva Montee knew the
California brand of the Hustle
and Bonnie Souers. was ac
quainted with Portland’s ver
sion, so they combined the
styles and presented what one
day might become known as
the Warm Springs Hustle.
People seemed to have a
lot of ‘fun at this first lesson in
a series of four. The Bump will
be taught at the next class on
December 14 and later classes
will feature the Swing, bopping
and a final review.
So put your blue suede
shoes, or whatever they’re
wearing at disco’s these days,
and bop on down to Conference
Room II at the Community
Center Tuesday evenings at
7:00 p.m. for an hour-long
work-out.
