Tutu Tuesday in De Salaberry, Manitoba: A Whirlwind of Fashion and Fun #tututuesday Okay, fellow dance lovers, grab your tutus and your coffee, because this Tutu Tuesday is about to get real! Today, we’re celebrating all things tutus in the heart of Manitoba, specifically the quaint, charming town of De Salaberry. Now, De Salaberry might not be the first place that springs to mind when you think “ballet fashion,” but let me tell you, this little town is full of surprises, and its tutus are no exception! From the romantic, ethereal pouter-pigeon tutu, perfect for that classic, timeless look, to the more contemporary, layered tutu with its playful, modern silhouette - the variety of tutus available in De Salaberry will have your head spinning. But before we dive into the tutu scene, let’s rewind a little and talk about the journey that brought me here, a journey that embodies everything I love about ballet in Canada. It all began on a Tuesday, a typical Tuesday, to be exact, when I was scrolling through Instagram (as we all do) and came across the hashtag #tututuesday. It was like a little beacon of light shining on my feed, urging me to do something bold, something expressive, something … tutu-ific! Now, my brain started spinning like a ballerina en pointe, imagining the perfect tutu-related adventure. Maybe a photoshoot in a historic building with incredible architecture? Perhaps a flash mob in the town square? A visit to a ballet school in a rural Manitoba town with a rich history? A quick search for the phrase “ballet in Canada” took me on a virtual road trip through the country's ballet scene. The vastness of Canada never ceases to amaze me, and as I dug into the depths of the Canadian ballet world, I realized the beautiful tapestry of talent and dedication that truly exists. My journey led me to the quaint and peaceful De Salaberry, where history whispers in the wind. I instantly knew that this was the place to be for a Tutu Tuesday celebration! With a plan in motion and excitement buzzing through my veins, I packed my bags with my favourite tulle creations, from a wispy, delicate tutus in soft pastel hues to a striking, bold black tutu that demands attention. Now, De Salaberry has a captivating charm. It's like a hidden gem, waiting to be discovered by the curious souls who appreciate simplicity and serenity. And when it comes to tutus, there's a certain sense of freedom here. Maybe it's the fresh air, maybe it's the spirit of the people, maybe it’s something entirely magical, but I felt a surge of inspiration as I donned my tulle masterpiece and embraced the opportunity to showcase my own creative vision. As the day unfolded, my #tututuesday adventures led me to: * **The De Salaberry Town Square** where I pirouetted and danced, the wind playing with the layers of tulle as I twirled like a ballerina in a storybook. * **The quaint, historic church** (with permission, of course!), which echoed with the echoes of a thousand whispered prayers and countless lives lived - a setting that perfectly captured the essence of timeless elegance. * **The lush green park**, a tapestry of nature's finest art, a sanctuary for quiet reflection and playful expression, all under the watchful gaze of the big, blue, Manitoba sky. * **The community centre** where I was greeted with open arms by the town's passionate, kind residents, their warm smiles reflecting a genuine appreciation for art, a beautiful affirmation that dance is a language understood across any border. From a whimsical waltz beneath a sprawling maple tree, to an impassioned grand allegro on the wooden stage of the community centre, I danced my heart out. And through each performance, the magic of dance, and the beauty of my tutus, painted an unforgettable portrait of this captivating town. Each location provided a canvas for a different mood, each location allowed the beauty of dance and fashion to tell a new story. I was enthralled by the opportunity to share my passion, not just for ballet but also for exploring the beauty and character of every corner of Canada, through my blog and on social media. Throughout the day, my heart swelled with gratitude as people stopped me to express their joy and appreciation. It felt as though I had momentarily transformed De Salaberry into a ballet haven, an experience shared by locals and visitors alike. You know what? My Tutu Tuesday adventure in De Salaberry proved that dance, fashion, and travel are inseparable parts of who I am and how I experience the world. De Salaberry’s beautiful spirit and its people’s warm hearts will remain etched in my memory, just as much as the graceful swirls and folds of those captivating tutus!
