For me snake arms are from the most boring arm movemement and this is because most dancers get stuck in this movement.
But ofcourse even if we do it just for 5 seconds in our dance we have to do it gracefully.
So the trick I use while teaching it is this:
Start with rolling your shoulders back one by one, a small beautiful circle, not going to up to the head, or near the neck, just roll back.
Start uplifting your hands/arms, continuing the movement of the shoulders, the feeling that you must have is that the movement start at the shoulder and end at your finger tips with a gracefull way.
It needs a lot of practice but it's beautifull
