Aliya Mustafina Channels Kaylie Cruz

Aliya Mustafina has been seen training a new floor exercise she plans to use in Antwerp next week. In the photo below, Aliya is doing the ending pose to a dance through of her floor exercise.

It looks very similar to the ending floor pose of Kaylie Cruz from the TV series, Make It Or Break It.  Below is the GIF image showing the floor pose of Kaylie (played by Josie Loren) as she ends her floor routine that makes her National Champion over rival Kelly Parker (played by Nicole Anderson).




They're not identical, but it's the hand gesture that makes me think it's similar.
