  • Sequence of movement

    Form a loose fist with the hand, leaving the index finger extended. This index finger is now brought down between the shoulder blades in a short straight line, with the back of the finger touching the back of the person being addressed. Then form loose fists with both hands, with thumb and index finger stretched away at a slight angle. Thumb and index finger form a kind of C. Now draw a rectangle, which should represent the pants, on the back. To do this, place the fingertips of these C fingers on the middle of the back of the person being addressed, so that both hands are almost touching. In a flowing motion, one now pulls both hands outward, keeping the C-shape of the fingers. Once outside, bring the fingertips of the thumb and index finger together to close the rectangle.
