'a gentle movement showing refinement' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.

'a gentle movement' is the wordplay.
'movement' indicates anagramming the letters (letters move around).
'a'+'gentle'='agentle'
'agentle' anagrammed gives 'ELEGANT'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for elegant that I've seen before include "Refined and dignified in appearance" , "Handsome" , "A gentle sort of stylish appearance" , "Neat leg? (anag)" , "Polished" .)
