This is typical action of a bearded dragon that is feeling like he or she has been dominated. When a male dragon courts a female, the female many times does this. The playful name for it i believe is sign language. They raise their front arm up in the air and wave it in a circular motion as they kinda shake their foot before putting it back down. then they may or may not do it with the other side.

did you scare your beardie?!?! lol!!

[GarterGirl]

Henner is a male. And I don't think I scared him.

[drache]

he doesn't scare easily
he goes out of his way to attack a 15lb cat

The front leg waving of Bearded Dragons (in fact all Agamids) is not about being dominated, but rather about being dominant. Henner was simply proclaiming his sovereignty!
I'm amazed you've never seen it before.

Indeed. It's a convenient way of communicating with other members of the same species.
