Pink Tutu Blog NYC - Post #1113: A Ballerina's Big Apple Dream! 🍎
Hello darlings! Emma here, back from another fabulous week in the Big Apple, ready to share my latest adventures with you! Monday morning has officially arrived, which means it's time for another post on my beloved Pink Tutu blog - just a little taste of my New York life for all of you back home. As you know, this week is a bit special, seeing as we’re just past the start of October – a month dedicated to the glorious hue that inspires all that I do – the colour pink! 💖
The past seven days have been a whirlwind of glitter and glamour, dancing, and delightful discoveries – and all here in the heart of Manhattan, surrounded by the most incredible energy I've ever felt! And this week’s adventures have, as always, been punctuated by my trusty pink tutu, the ultimate emblem of femininity, twirling right alongside me! 😉
This week started in a particularly inspiring way: a visit to the New York Public Library. It’s such an iconic building - the impressive architecture really puts you in the mood for grand tales of historical romance, something which, as a ballet fanatic, always gets me thinking about classic romances like Giselle and Swan Lake. It also makes you appreciate the beauty of classic storytelling!
Afterwards, I took the A train down to the Financial District – a fabulous way to see the heart of the city. I love those rumbling journeys through the concrete labyrinth of the subway, such an adventure, particularly when there’s a burst of music from someone's headphones next to me! As much as I love a sparkly evening at the ballet, there’s something particularly captivating about experiencing life at a more mundane pace; these little snippets of reality ground my dancing soul, so to speak. This time, I spotted a fabulous vintage-style boutique just outside the subway station - I couldn't resist taking a peek and emerged with a beautiful pastel pink shawl to add to my collection of pink pieces. 🥰 It matched my shoes perfectly!
This weekend, however, was dedicated to my true passion – dance! After all, this is New York, the dance capital of the world, the place to be if you want to experience some of the best the world of dance has to offer. And it was Saturday October 1st - an absolutely unforgettable night at Lincoln Center, where I attended a dazzling performance by American Ballet Theatre. The choreography was stunningly innovative – a seamless blend of classic grace and cutting-edge contemporary moves. I particularly loved a poignant moment of expressionistic storytelling, almost reminiscent of a silent film – I won’t spoil it for you, though. Go see it! But after such a spectacular display, my dancing heart needed more! And so, a Sunday afternoon found me at Steps on Broadway, the renowned dance studio right here in Manhattan! What better way to soak up the incredible energy and buzz of this magical city? 🩰 The class was incredible - full of passionate, driven people with such inspiring passion, all gathered to explore the wonderful world of dance, just like me!
On my walk back to my little flat in Brooklyn (I adore living on the other side of the river), I discovered a hidden treasure – a vintage book store with a little coffee shop at the back. Tucked away in a quiet cobblestone street, it felt a world away from the bustling streets just moments ago! Of course, I had to take home a well-worn copy of Alice in Wonderland, a perfect reminder of the magical and wonderful adventures to be found in the most unexpected places! 🐰
This week was, once again, about celebrating the little joys in life. The small, sometimes almost mundane details of everyday life here in New York City – that incredible coffee scent wafting out from a local bakery; the sunshine catching the shimmering glass walls of the Empire State Building as you walk through Central Park; the joyous honking of a yellow cab driver on a perfect crisp Autumn day - all add to the kaleidoscope of my life in New York! ✨
You’ll never find me bored in this city, that’s for sure! It's a constant source of inspiration and delight, pushing me to keep growing, to explore, and, above all, to dance my way through every single moment! And now, as you read this, I’m actually on the 7 train, returning home from an exciting evening of jazz music. And wouldn’t you know it – there was even a tutu-clad woman right next to me! It was practically meant to be! Another week gone by, another beautiful memory in the books – another reason why my life as a ballerina in New York City just keeps getting better and better.
I can't wait to see what adventures next week brings – and hopefully, I'll find even more incredible moments to share with all of you! 💫
