365 Days of Jazz Hands - Day 6


SUNDAY, JANUARY 6th, 2013

Today I become slightly more comfortable with the overall idea of jazzing my hands in the mirror.  I feel uncomfortable with the rising comfort level.  I try facing away from the mirror, do a quick pivot and snap quickly into "Jazz Hands."  I call this "Surprise Attack Jazz Hands."  This offers some insight as to how I spontaneously deploy "Jazz Hands."  I naturally rotate or "dip" to my right at the hip.  This is what I will now call the "Right Hip Dip."  I raise my eyebrows and say "Jazz Hands!"  I position my hands perpendicular to the floor and shift them side to side, palms facing away from me.  I have no clue if I do this naturally by instinct, or if I am merely mimicking (unintentionally, of course) something I have seen someone else do before.  What's more, I have no idea if this is proper form or if there is even such a thing as "freeform" or "free style."  I prefer not to research such matters at this point, but feel the urge swelling within me.  One note of interest:  It helps a great deal to make a goofball face at time of "Jazz Hands" deployment.  As I've learned in days past, dead pan just does not cut the mustard.  Day 6 complete.
