Most lawyers have some training in appellate oral advocacy while in law school.
Few, if any, get similar training for making arguments to trial judges. Size up your audience. If you've never appeared before this judge before, try to attend court on motion day to get an idea of her style and preferences. If that's not possible, talk to other lawyers who have appeared before Her Honor. With regard to your particular argument, find out in advance how much time you'll be allowed for argument.
