Comment by Justin Evans:
The lighting, contrast, color saturation and composition are all very weak. FInally, this isn't frozen motion. It's ALMOST frozen, but it's still not what the challenge described. Every aspect of the moving subject is blurred. However, the subject matter is strong. That's a good start. Most of the applicants haven't succeeded in that.

It's a nice pic, but the motion blur really does go against the challenge. I have no idea what camera you are using but if it's a case that you have no control of the shutter speed then you could try adding lots more light, or try presetting the camera focus and exposure to the bright light from the windows in the background and then take a few steps back before capturing the movement. Any underexposure could then be addressed afterwards.

Cool kid, nice setting. May want to turn up the shutter speed for this one, but still good

There is a little too much motion showing in this one for me, and colors seem a little dull.

Blurring is not stopped motion. It's a pity because the composition is beautiful and the stance is very dynamic.

I keep coming back to this image. I think it is a simple, beutiful shot. I like the model and the mood created by the sepia choice. I would perhaps reconsider the pose as it does not quite match the model's look or expression (but that may be the explicit choice).
