ribbon dance
Flowing fabric performance
A ribbon dance is a performance in which dancers manipulate long ribbons attached to sticks, creating flowing patterns and spirals through the air.
The form is associated with Chinese folk tradition, where silk ribbons trace elaborate shapes, but ribbon dancing appears in gymnastics and children's activities worldwide: The girls twirled their ribbons in the ribbon dance at the school concert.
