Verdant Cole,
You can see that you get more comfortable and confident in your poses as the practice goes on. Some of your action lines flow naturally and well with the pose while others are still static and stiff. Be more adventurous with the line of action. Put some extreme exaggeration on the curves to help warm up and you will find the poses will become more naturally flowing. I would also take a moment and review body proportion to help balance your poses. Your arms and legs are balanced wonderfully but the torso and hips are conflicting causing your gesture's balance to tip. I added a link to a pinterest article about heading mapping bodies with a reference picture I use constantly for body proportion that may come in handy. Keep up the great work! I look forward to seeing how you improve!
Tysm for the advice IT REALLY HELPS!
