Tutu Tuesday in Lake Havasu City, Arizona: A Ballet Blogger's Paradise #tututuesday
Hey everyone! It’s your girl, Chloe, here from The Tutu Diaries. Today, we're in Lake Havasu City, Arizona, a city known for its gorgeous weather, beautiful sunsets and.. yup, you guessed it - it's turning out to be a real haven for ballet lovers! #tututuesday
I just have to tell you, walking down the streets here, it's not uncommon to see a few twirls in the sunshine! Lake Havasu City has this laid-back, yet classy vibe that just invites you to put on your best tutu and twirl your cares away. I was so excited when I saw a poster for a free community ballet class on the waterfront - a total dream!
And get this: I ran into a fellow ballet enthusiast, a local teacher named Emily who was also sporting a fabulously flowy tutu. She told me about this hidden gem of a dance studio nestled in the heart of downtown. Turns out, there are classes every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday morning right here in Lake Havasu! Who knew? Now I'm starting to feel like this place was meant for me.
Now, let's talk tutus, because it is, after all, #tututuesday! The tutus here in Lake Havasu City have a special vibe. We’re talking vibrant colors, flowing chiffon, and delicate details – perfect for embracing that sunshine spirit! One of the local stores, "Dance Delights", has this amazing collection of whimsical tutus. They're perfect for casual days of dancing, exploring the city, and even adding a touch of ballet elegance to a brunch at the local cafe.
What I love about the Lake Havasu City scene is its embrace of tutus beyond the traditional classical styles. I spotted some of the coolest contemporary and street-inspired tutus in some shops on the main drag. A super edgy tutu with layers of tulle with snazzy details. This was not your classic ballet class tutu. The shop owners explained how their street style tutus allow the wearer to be playful and expressive - no stiff formality here!
So here's my top 3 tutu picks for #tututuesday in Lake Havasu City:
- Classic Swan Lake Style Tutu: This classic romantic tulle skirt with the traditional pointed look, makes a perfect elegant choice for dancing outdoors or taking in a performance under the Arizona sky.
- Whimsical Ruffled Tutu This tulle confection, overflowing with soft, ruffled layers, gives you all the flowy elegance needed to twirl by the water.
- Street Style Tutu: I'm talking layered tulle, ripped up edges and funky prints. For an outfit that's part punk, part ballerina, this style screams "Lake Havasu Spirit"!
I must say, I'm seriously enthralled with this dance-friendly community. My advice: pack your tutu and a sense of adventure. Lake Havasu City, Arizona - it's not just about beautiful beaches and stunning sunsets; it's a haven for ballerinas! See you soon! #tututuesday #LakeHavasuCity #balletlove #tutus #arizona
