But let's face it, there's a cheeky little side to us ballet dancers that loves nothing more than a bit of fun! And what's more fun than donning a whimsical tutu and celebrating the joyous spirit of dance, right in the heart of… Dimboola, Victoria? Yes, you read that right. We're bringing the magic of tutus to this quaint, sun-drenched town.

Now, I'm not going to lie, initially, there were some eyebrows raised, some bewildered smiles. “Tutus in Dimboola?” Some folks whispered with bemusement. "But this is Dimboola! A little out of place, isn’t it? The land of wheat fields and wide open spaces?”
But you know what? The locals, with their warm hearts and welcoming smiles, embraced #Tututuesday wholeheartedly! They stepped out of their shops, paused their chores, and with curious, eager smiles, joined the dance, twirling their skirts, swaying to the invisible rhythm, letting loose, and celebrating the day with unabashed enthusiasm.
For this #Tututuesday, we decided to mix it up a little! No ordinary tutus, oh no, these are special tutus, crafted to represent the essence of Dimboola itself! Think classic tutus with embroidered wildflowers and sun-baked wheat. Picture tutus with the vibrant colours of a rural sunrise and even tutus inspired by the quaint charm of local architecture.

- The ‘Old Dimboola’ Tutu: This one's a real crowd pleaser, paying homage to the iconic red-brick architecture, evoking the town’s nostalgic charm.
And the magic didn't stop there! As we danced down the main street, locals, encouraged by our whimsical exuberance, emerged from their houses with smiles as bright as the sun! Kids skipped along, their infectious laughter echoing across the town square, a testament to the unbridled joy that only tutus can bring.
