I have been a teacher for 12 years (6 years in regular education and 6 years in special education). I have come to realize, as this is my first year back in regular education after 6 years in special education, that students learn best when the are feel comfortable, know their opinion is valued, and have some control and choice in the way they learn. Students feel empowered by having some degree of choice and control over their environment. Flexible seating keeps them from getting distracted by the feeling of being uncomfortable which in turn leaves them more focused on the tasks at hand.
