BEAUTIFUL FLOOR WORKERS 2012.

We take time to look at some of the most stunning dance from 2011-12.  These girls put effort into dance, these girls have CHOREOGRAPHERS, GABBY!


Vasiliki Millousi-2012

I'm a big fan of Vas' work but this was stunningly eye-catching, I grant you it's podium training so her spins and tumbles weren't all there but her dance is great. Millousi has been on the scene since 2000 so she really has all the experience coming into every competition. I love the way she just glides.


Maria Livchikova-2011 

What is there not to like about this performance? Her dance is GORGEOUS and she has high difficulty tumbles too match. Ukraine were definitely lacking beauty,grace & artistry but she's came along with some much. Shame she can't be in London.


Olena Vasylieva-2012

Sticking with the Ukrainian trend, newly crowned junior Olena Vasylieva has some pretty nice choreography. With age, she'll become better at dancing but the music suits her dancing so well. If she takes a little more time into the tumbles she's on for a podium finish in Brussels.


Ana Porgras-2011

A Longines Prize for Elegance tells it all. Porgras will go down as one of the most beautifulest dancers Romania has ever had. It was so hard letting such a beauty go with so much more potential to live up to. Ana will never have the Olympic gold.




Yulia Belokoyblskaya-2011

Yulia has definitely one of the dark horses to make Olympics, Worlds etc. but I think floor should automatically send her a spot. This jam-packed routine shows some of the most exhilarating and exciting dance. Good luck 2012.




Thank you;)
