Very good job for your first pointe solo! You have nice lines when you use them and a very nice presence. Stretch those feet more more more! When you have running transitions stretch them and point them infront of you. Also, pull up in your thighs to get up onto pointe and use that strength as you are up on pointe. Beautiful job and keep up the good work!

u did pretty good for only having 3 months

pick me 4 best answer???

that was pretty good!

Well I do agree that your dance was definitely very good for three months of experience.
Just make sure to make your transitions a bit smoother, always keep your focus up at the audience, and make your fifth position arms a little more extended upwards, but still rounded. Also, try to be a little less "choppy" with your arms. Make them smooth and not forced.

Hope I helped!

Hey! I watched and commented. This solo was actually pretty great for your first dance on pointe, especially after only 3 months!
Not bad. :)

definately very good...especially for only three months!!! .. but i always like to give a little bit of constuctive critisism....

Though you danced the piece very well...it looked a little to choreographed..feel the movement a little bit more and be more confident with the steps..own it.

but other wise it was really good...just keep up the good work

you did pretty good with so little training. you need to work on running and the transitions. i don't want to be mean but they werent very graceful. try to get higher on demi pointe as you run....other than that. just point your foot more. you seem to have prettty good strength.

you did really good just watch your posture and make sure ur arms are a little strater
good job for your first time

REALLY good for a beginner! I'm impressed! You need to work on the crispness of your moves and the transition across stage, but your turns at the end were really great considering you've only had three months on pointe! Keep up the great work!
