What is the style of movement that expresses who we are today. I expect that it is a mash up of these. They are distilling inside, creating a new voice for our new free spirit. Iran-das organization

From You Tube today, a video of Iranian women taking to the streets and a quote from Ferdowsi about Iranian women. This with music from Sting. I love how the video ends with the hands of a man and a woman because we are together in this.
