I was able to see the video, could you make a better and longer one?
It looks to me as though you could be teaching her to regurgitate but this video is too short for me to make a call. Does she do this at any other time, such as when you are not waving something in her face? The bobbing that I saw was following the motion of you waving something ( I couldn't tell what it was ) in her face.

I agree, regurgitation. Not good. :(

But the beak tapping, Emmi does it to make a beat when she hears music or I'm singing to her. Snap along with your Conure, they love it!
