I've been doing MJ for about 20 months now and find the more I dance the lower I get.
I was even reprimanded severely by my former ballet mistress (mum!) for spinning with bent knees and a low demi-pointe when dancing MJ.....she has now taken up Ceroc and is starting to do the same thing!
I still point my toes and am sure I always will - aren't these the things that make us all different and give us our own brand of "interesting" as a partner?
Funny, it was actually my ballet teacher who persuaded me to start going to ceroc with her...

Lily B and Nina Daines are the dancers who most inspire me. But, as you say, they can both beautifully adapt to different styles. I can't seem to manage this!

(I gather Lily was even engaged in matador-type dancing last night! Marc was raving about it all the way home ...)
