[@theoneandonlycmelt]

those italian fouettes slayed me.

[@EVZYL]

Looking at some of the negative comments on this, and other of Miko's videos, her greatest problem is going to be dealing with envious people. I hope she will keep her eye on the ball and manage to rise above it. Go girl, you bring smiles to the faces of so many people!

[@yoonalee9256]

EVZYL I agree with you. A lot of people criticize her a little cruelly, IMO. But she’s gorgeous in any aspect. BTW love her gorgeous tutu!

[@kaylaray151]

@@yoonalee9256 she quit ballet like over a year ago i think

[@ElizabethRasmussen562]

EVZYL shes sooo good

[@CapriceUnlimited07]

The best italian fouettes I've seen. WOW your control is phenomenal!

[@EineIsabel]

i wish ballet would be as easy as it looks like when she dances!

[@gabychavez253]

Can’t believe she had a broken toe throughout this.

[@diannadiress8148]

[@graciechilds2459]

Her balances were so PERFECT!! Everything was so amazing and Perfect! Good Job!

[@Cupkakeluv1200]

She's so graceful!! She makes it seem so easy!

[@xy2565]

It's like you pause and suspend for ages in the air! You dance so light and make it look so effortless! You are just too amazing miko!!

[@discontinuedpleasegoaway]

Ok, so I wasn't really impressed with the first part, but those Italian fouettes completly blew me away. Not many people can manage those so flawlessly.

[@D.A.A.321]

Her arms during those Italian Fouettés are so fluid, I feel like this is the first time I’m looking at the arms when someone performs them.

[@gladyyysssss]

i swear ive watched this like 15 times

[@anfaanianfaani9819]

Love her musicality!

[@aikishugyo]

Wondeful to watch. Love the grace and musicality as much as the technical skillfulness.

[@takenoprisoners837]

Beautiful, as always!!

[@chapeltibet4551]

Oh my, Miko, just beautiful.

[@iluvdance00]

[@durubesli9173]

The moves at the end don't look easy but Miko nailed them at only 15!!!!😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱

[@T._.liu.]

Didn’t she perform this with a broken toe or was that a different one?

[@ariamanson7581]

Great Job Miko!

[@bobbykennedy7446]

What was that starting at 1:00 That was impressive. I mean. Seriously if you're commenting bad about this you're either a legend in ballet, or..

[@yoonalee9256]

Or... you have bad taste in ballet and you’re envious of Miko

[@theshadestartsnow9818]

she was phenomenal!!!! her technique is really good, she is one to watch!

[@jaidenhanley2796]

[@kadirokhanakn5032]

[@AliceKho]

[@kamilareeder943]

I love miko fogharty, and I think this was flawlessly executed, but I think it lacked performance quality :/😢

[@betzymartinez3364]

Kamila Reeder well she was injured while performing this she injured her toe on the dot that she was doing her Italian fouettés on

[@thamiresfreitas6923]

Alguém sabe me informar se essa variação é de qual ato? 1ºato , 2ºato ou 3ºato ??? Agradeço desde já.

[@wilawantuanrat4488]

She must get 1st place:)

[@oliviacofer6481]

Those Italian Fouettes...

[@sbn7186]

She's as good as sylvie guillem

[@Balletlover777]

Not at all, but she is really young

[@Solangemarguerite]

Ok she is 15,but it's very very far from Sylvie Guillem at the age of 19...

[@JjeanS2150]

More Miko she needs more, idk how to explain it this is lacking so much, one of her worst performances, if ur Russian trained you know what I mean by more

[@EVZYL]

+JjeanS2150 Oh tut tut. What misplaced snobbery. I'm a Rusophile who lived in Russia for three years and spent most evenings at the ballet. Miko could walk into any of those companies if she chose to do so. You're just jealous. Why don't you post a video of your own version of this variation?

[@JjeanS2150]

+EVZYL she needs more emotion, and she probably couldn't be a part of a Russian company because all of their dancers are Russian, tall, and have good feet or hyper extension and they are extremely turned out, miko is a great ballerina I know, but in the eyes of something trained in Vaganova she does not have those qualities

[@EVZYL]

+JjeanS2150 Yes, envy will bring out that kind of comment.

[@discontinuedpleasegoaway]

I agree and disagree. Milo won gold at the Moscow competition, so she could probably go and join a russian company. But I get what you mean about not having vaganova or marinsky quality.

[@theshadestartsnow9818]

I think in this video for a 15 year old her technique was great!
