USE FREE AND FLUID
GESTURES
Your gestures make your ideas more
eloquent:
they give an image to your words and make
you more convincing
Let your arms fall naturally along the side of
your body: (when seated, open on the table).
Relaxed arms lead to spontaneous gestures.
Always obey the following:
Use sober sincere gestures (no “sleeve
tricks”)
Make your ideas evident: Move your hands away
from your body and open them towards the audience Use calm, open gestures (show the
palms of your
hands)
Spontaneous gestures come from below
Bring your images to life: Let your gestures the waist
come naturally and sculpt your emotions and images
in the air.
Show your conviction:
Reinforce your ideas and punctuate your state- USE GESTURES TO SPEAK
ments with gestures
Use full, convincing gestures. A convincing gesture FREELY
comes at the same time as the words, it serves to
illustrate.
