Tutu Tuesday in New Berlin, Wisconsin, USA #tututuesday
Hey dance fam! It's your girl, Claire, back with another Tutu Tuesday! This week, I'm bringing the magic of ballet to the heartland of Wisconsin, specifically New Berlin. Now, you might be thinking, "New Berlin? Really?" But trust me, this little town is overflowing with style, charm, and – dare I say it? – a hidden passion for the arts. 🩰
My journey began at the quaint New Berlin Ballet Academy, where I met the sweetest little ballerinas – from the tiny tots taking their first pirouettes to the older girls with dreams as big as their tutus. It warmed my heart to see the pure joy in their eyes as they gracefully glided across the studio floor. It reminded me of my own love affair with ballet, a passion that began in the tiny studio of my hometown in Ohio.
We delved into the world of tutus! We chatted about the history, from the simple and graceful classical tutu, the quintessential image of ballet, to the modern, whimsical designs. We even took a trip down memory lane with some vintage tutu photos from the 1930s and 40s. Let me tell you, those early ballerinas really knew how to rock a tulle skirt! We discussed different styles, the soft, dreamy layers of romantic tutus, the crisp, clean lines of a traditional tutu, the unique patterns of contemporary tutus – there are endless possibilities!
I was blown away by their enthusiasm. They were eager to share their tutu knowledge, like, “What’s the difference between a romantic and classical tutu, Claire?” You see, in New Berlin, passion for the art form is truly alive and thriving! And their stories, their dedication, reminded me of the incredible community spirit that's always surrounded me in ballet. This truly is a universal language! 💖
