Tutu Tuesday 10690

Tutu Tuesday in Muskogee, Oklahoma #tututuesday Okay, you guys, you *know* I’m all about finding creative ways to incorporate ballet into my everyday life. And you *know* I'm always trying to encourage you to get your *tututivate* on, whatever your level! So, what better way to do that than with a little *Tutu Tuesday* trip to my favorite Oklahoma hometown – Muskogee? This city's got so much to offer! I was so inspired by the architecture – the old-fashioned brick buildings and beautiful old theaters? Talk about ballet-ready scenery! And there’s so much history – it makes you want to spin right back into a 19th-century romantic era *tutu*, right? (Let's be honest, those tutus have been totally making a comeback). But, I'm all about the *modern* movement. And you *know* I couldn’t go to Muskogee without heading to the Muskogee Civic Center for a little dance practice. (It's a hidden gem, people. Just wait ‘til you see it!) My absolute favorite spot there? The big, beautiful, perfectly sprung, wood dance floor, of course! It's perfect for practicing those *pirouettes* and *arabesques*. Now, let's talk outfits. Because what's a Tutu Tuesday without a great look? I chose to wear a vintage-style, *Romantic* tutu – super dramatic, lots of layers, and perfect for that classic ballet vibe. (Honestly, can we talk about the comeback of the *Romantic* tutu? They are everything!) The details, the soft fabric – it really takes you back. But I'm all about adding a bit of *modern* edge to my style, and let's be real, nobody wants to get *tutu-ing* without their trusty *ballet slippers* on! My tip: go for a pair in a bold, contemporary color, like cobalt blue or metallic gold. You’re going to stand out at the barre with this kind of *fashion* forward move. And hey, let’s not forget about a sleek bun. We did a little photo shoot – we gotta document every bit of #tututuesday, you know.
**Things I learned:** * It's so much fun to dance in an unfamiliar place – it’s great to get outside of your routine! * It’s important to stay true to your unique sense of style! And don’t be afraid to get bold and experiment – whether it’s your outfit or your dance moves. * Don’t forget about a good hair *and* makeup look, no matter where you're dancing! * And, most importantly: Ballet doesn't belong only on stage – it’s meant for life! You can practice wherever you are. You can incorporate the beauty of dance into every day. And remember: Every single day can be *Tutu Tuesday*! **But, don't forget –** If you want to try ballet in your area, the ballet scene in the US is bigger and more diverse than ever. Get involved, search for community dance classes – maybe you’re on the verge of starting a whole new *Tutu Tuesday* journey! Share your *Tutu Tuesday* with me!
