"Now you want a smooth rotation, remember to bend at the wrist, there is no need to move your whole hand... a little too much force and the charm could go horribly wrong. Please aim your wand away from your feet and DO NOT repeat the incantation as you do so... we are ONLY doing to wand movement at this stage, you can perform the two together in the next step."
Seren continued to demonstrate by rotating her wand in a circular fashion, as if tracing a circle.

He liked how the professors here had them practice the incantation and wand movement individually first. Like that it was less likely that something would go wrong afterwards. Less likely. Not impossible. But still.

Reaching for his wand, Lewis realized that it wasn't that easy to hold it, and above all bend his wrist with his gloves still on. Were they allowed to take them off for this? He quickly glanced around at the other people already practicing the wand movement. None of them were wearing their gloves. And now that he got to think of it, the professor wasn't either. Huh.

Lewis slowly took off his gloves, and tugged them back into his bag before reaching for his wand again. Ah, that was loads better! Seeing as they were supposed to point their wands away from their feet, Lewis shuffled a little away from a boy close to him who was apparently not paying too much attention and was instead inquiring about cows. Right. Weird school this was. Very weird indeed.

Pointing his wand away from his feet, Lewis tried to mimick the professor's wand movements a couple of times. The 'smooth rotation' proved to be a little more difficult than expected after watching the professor perform it with such ease. But he was getting there. He was usually pretty good at doing spells.
