Animation is REALLY stiff

The expressions on the 2 characters should change more, I like that you focused on the movements first & the staging is pretty interesting, but it's still pretty flawed.

A big problem is that you're moving the character around but not showing the weight shifting, when the lady took a step or moves her arms dramatically there should be more hip & upper body movement.

Smooth out those arm movements, there's some popping & sudden stops. You can use moving holds & the graph editor to try & help with that.

Your timing's not bad, I like the way you offset the arms. Keep working on it spruce it up, you can make some major progress if you spend more time with it & know that the body is connected, get more Anticipation in there as well.

I can see every keyframe. That's not really what you want.
