Answer: <em>Racing and sluggish.</em>

Explanation:

"Racing" and "sluggish" are the only two contrasting words - racing is a term we use for something fast-moving and active. Sluggish has the opposite meaning - slow-moving and inactive. "Swirling", for instance, means <em>moving in a twisting pattern</em>, which is not really in contrast with "dancing". Moreover, "racing" and "sluggish" are the only two words that describe the stream.
