    Her port de bras is exquisite. So graceful and effortless, you dance like a principal already.

    Congratulations Miko! My daughter and I have been following you since first position. My daughter is 9yo and is focused on becoming a professional ballerina and you are her idol. She asks me to search you tube every week for any new videos of you. Thanks to your mum for always posting and helping to keep my daughter inspired.
    We wish you great success and can't wait for the day we do the you tube search and you announce which company you have been accepted into.
    All the sacrificies you are making are paying off, you are beautiful to watch.

      @Forrest Buehler No it's not. She was unhappy and no longer enjoyed it. She was right to quit. She's happy in her new life as a medical student. Good for her, I say.

    • @chooseyourpoison5105
      @chooseyourpoison5105 Год назад

      @Forrest Buehler Yeah I get that but she was so miserable and plagued by injuries, her quitting was for the best. She's done an inspirational TED talk about how her injuries actually led to her interest in medicine, and how sometimes when you think a door has closed a new one is opening. She seems so much happier now and I'm sure she'll be a great doctor. In the meantime we can still watch her lovely videos.

    shes one of the very few who are able to show that much emotions through their dancing, especially her facial expressions are ALWAYS perfectly matched to the variation and the character she's dancing so i will never understand why you see her as an emotionless dancer ..

Good luck with your professional career! I will be watching your progress over the years! I only hope I’m still around to see that because I’m in my eight decade! As I lost my Sweetheart after 62 years of marriage, approximately a year ago! she also enjoyed watching you perform on RUclips, along with I! Thanks a million for your superb dancing for the world to enjoy!

    This is breathtaking because the music and choreography and this beautiful amazing wonderful dancer all blend so well. It is a mesmerizing performance! The use of flowing port de bras and the controlled transitions are just so beautiful, as a former baller dancer I look on admiringly.

  • @TheVerveIndex
    @TheVerveIndex 11 лет назад +62

    Beautiful, Miko. And your port au bras is stunningly beautiful. Were this during an actual full performance of "Paquita" the audience would be going crazy. Keep your wonderful work going strong (even though with this kind of evidence it's clear there's no need for me to say it). Your love, dedication, artistry and work ethic are very much appreciated.
