# Body language

> Add natural movements and gestures to your avatar

## Managing Gestures

<CardGroup cols={2}>
  <Card title="View gestures" icon="list" color="purple" style={{flexDirection: 'row', alignItems: 'center', width: '200px'}}>
    Your gestures appear chronologically in the Body Language section
  </Card>

  <Card title="Create clips" icon="plus" color="purple" style={{flexDirection: 'row', alignItems: 'center', width: '200px'}}>
    Press Enter to create a new clip
  </Card>

  <Card title="Apply gestures" icon="hand" color="purple" style={{flexDirection: 'row', alignItems: 'center', width: '200px'}}>
    Choose one gesture per clip for maximum impact
  </Card>
</CardGroup>

## Adjusting Timing

* Offset helps you put the exact frame on the right word. 0.5 seconds amounts to approximately offsetting 15 frames.

* If the gesture happens too late, after what the avatar says, then click on the arrow on the right. >

* If the gesture happens too early, before what the avatar says, then click on the arrow on the left \<&#x20;
