About your trainers:
Hustle and Flow and Electric Cottage Collective are thrilled to bring you an exciting dance cardio training! While our businesses and movement styles are unique to us, we share a strong foundation and belief in inclusivity, community and the power of collaboration. By combining our innovative approaches, we’re creating a dynamic experience that celebrates unity and community.

Stephanie Harmon is the owner of Hustle and Flow and has been teaching dance for 11 years at the studio and trained and danced for fun for many years prior. Steph grew up learning and training in Hip Hop and West African Dance specifically and has explored many different types of movement and dance classes, while also getting certified in Yoga, Reiki, Thai table and floor massage.
Liz Kovarsky (she/her) discovered in her late twenties that it feels much better to sweat it out on the dance floor when we’re swapping water for booze, and late nights for early mornings! She became a regular student in Steph’s Hustlercise classes in 2015, and by 2018 was leading her own Hustlercise classes. Liz is trained in many movement practices including multiple styles of yoga, barre, and various wisdom traditions grounded in embodiment, expressive arts and somatics. Liz owns Electric Cottage Collective in Brunswick, where they offer Body Language dance cardio classes, in addition to many other joyful movement & arts classes!
