The fluidity is best supported by driving the movement from your shoulders.
If you relax your arms and just do a few shoulder rolls, you will see how your arms already respond!
Driving from the shoulders supports the movement so that you can keep the arms delicate and supple throughout the movement.
Begin by raising the shoulder, then the arm towards the elbow, then the wrist and releasing...all very slowly...try to make the movement as slow and delicate as possible...do the other arm...then do them together...
Maria gives great advice about keep the energy moving through the entire arm through the fingertips!
