Women in Iran continue to carry the torch of valor through powerful and symbolic acts of civil disobedience.
Video: Ballet dance without the mandatory veil near the historic Eram Garden in Shiraz, Iran.

A big thank you to Rethink Dance Festival for including #PersianSwan as an official selection this year.
For 44 years, ballet has been banned in Iran. This is the discovery of that story by our director, @TaraGhassemieh, and her tribute to the ballet company.
#DanceForIran ✌🏼
If you are in the Wisconsin area October 14th, you can view Persian Swan as it’s an official selection for the Rethink Dance Festival.

If you are in Istanbul and able to attend, #PersianSwan will be opening the festival on 9/24 at 7 pm UTC. 🦢
Please don’t forget the women and girls of Iran. And remember, to dance is to be perfectly free. ✌🏼

Love this and so appreciate the work you are doing @ElleToussi. Wish I could be in LA to see the amazing @taraghassemieh dance! #DanceforIran
So proud of @TaraGhassemieh and her team on another sold out event. Tonight in Los Angeles. See you there! #DanceForIran
This is my friendly reminder to not forget the women and girls of Iran. #WomanLifeFreedom

BALLET was BANNED in Iran when Khomeini came to power and the Iranian National Ballet disbanded.
Ballerina @TaraGhassemieh uses her talents to raise awareness on the restriction of freedom of expression under the regime of the IRI through dance. Support #DanceforIran
An Iranian American ballerina is tapping into her heritage and her art to express solidarity with those pushing for more rights.

Since protests erupted in Iran last year, people have taken to social media to show their support.
Julia Griffin reports on an Iranian-American ballerina who is tapping into her own heritage and art, in solidarity with those pushing for more rights. https://t.co/70bU3nbmf2
This time last year @TaraGhassemieh @KellyCJohnstone & I were working on the short film PERSIAN SWAN about her discovery of a ballet company in Iran. You can view it on @EluvioInc until May 31st at https://t.co/F2ZVwKUBAB Thanks to @NewsHour for this piece.#DanceForIran
So humbled and thank you to @NewsHour for showcasing my work and for sharing our goal to document the history of ballet in Iran. #DanceForIran
Golden State Ballet principal dancer Tara Ghassemieh is used to taking command of the stage. From the Sugar Plum Fairy to the Black Swan, she’s tackled her share of lead and featured roles. But recently, she stepped into a new role: pacifist-activist. https://t.co/70bU3nbmf2
Our very own PERSIAN SWAN - @TaraGhassemieh featured in @pbsnewshour for her advocacy work. Don't miss the mention about our next venture together -- to document the history of ballet in Iran. #DanceForIran @KellyCJohnstone @ElleToussi https://t.co/oYksJe0ocs
The #danceforIran movement is the most beautiful and gentle forms of protest I’ve ever seen.
#WomenEmpowerment #WomensRights #peacefulprotest
I’ll keep saying this until Iranian people are free - Please do not forget the women & girls of Iran. Below is a video from Germany in support of the #ekbatangirls Their crime? Dancing. Thanks to @TaraGhassemieh and her #DanceForIran campaign that brought this to my attention.
بعد از انتشار ویدیوی رقص دختران اکباتان بسیاری در ایران و سایر کشورها با انتشار تصاویری از رقص و نواختن موسیقی از آنها حمایت کردند.
در همین راستا، رقص گروهی ایرانیان مقیم کلن آلمان، در حمایت از دختران اکباتان امروز در مراسم سیزده بدر به دست بیبیسی رسیده است.
The moment two generations of ballerinas met. They mean so much to me. For trusting me to help tell their stories. @mary_apick danced in Rudaki Hall when Iran was free. @TaraGhassemieh dances now, campaigning for a free Iran. Last night was historical. #DanceForIran
See for example these young women on the left - dancing freely to @selenagomez's Calm Down - unveiled & in public.
The regime tracked them down, detained them & forced them to apologise (right)
But in response, it spawned multiple copycat protests.
