This is a very rare motive in the TE photographs, and I’m glad that you’ve posted it. The clarity is good as well the colors.
Still, I find the framing a bit too tight, especially because her position is not very dynamic which creates a somewhat rigid composition. And this a type of photography which requires movement. In your first one you did quite well. Her body shows movement and the frame has space for her to “move”.
In this situation maybe you could have tried for a slower shutter speed to blur a bit, her and all the dancers, and waited to have the male dancer more to the right to balance. A good trick is to use sequential shots and then choose the best one.
