I found another competition where Miko performed her Kitri variation. In this one, her characterization is much deeper, but (lest you think I gush praise indiscriminately) she does need to work on getting her heel down in the series of pirouettes. That's a little detail that could cause a big injury, and it's also something that would make her dancing much better. That said, it's not an easy correction because such a large part of ballet is habit, and habits take time to correct. Good dancers distinguish themselves by taking corrections in stride and continually improving their craft. I do believe that Miko has a very bright future and will be much sought-after if she decides to look for a company to dance with. Correcting the minutia now will no doubt help her in this endeavor.
