We often define fluidity as ‘easy flow’, ‘smooth elegance’, and ‘grace’. But another definition of the word is ‘the state of being unsettled or unstable’, or ‘changeability.’ Persian dance is often described as graceful and fluid, due to its use of circular and spiral shapes, smooth transitions between movements, and its synergetic effect when performed with music. While elegance and grace are visually evident in the dance style, the kinetic sensation of the fluid movement transcends these aesthetics. It fosters a powerful connection of the mind and body and a state of changeability. Interestingly, and perhaps ironically, this attunement to change results in a sense of stability within the state of instability. In other words, the ability to instantly adapt to change (“going with the flow”) is, in itself, a grounding experience. This stability is further affirmed by the pulse in movement (and in music), the consistent rhythm, and the heartbeat of the expression. Persians have historically used both phenomena (fluidity and pulse) to survive political turmoil and regime changes. Ceremonies and rituals are the consistent pulse of the culture, while slow and smooth transitions in everyday activities and people’s relationships create fluidity within the culture. Both are reflected in dance and music and when practiced together, can activate a surge of empowerment that benefits people of any cultural background anywhere in the world.
