Hello Kathleen
Just a quick note to tell you that I looked at the video clip with  
the link above, and found that Kristof's sign is not the same as the  
German-Swiss sign at all, which just brushed up twice on the side of  
the chest...but look at Kristof's picture...he is putting his hands  
under his arm pits and holding them in there and then doing movement  
up twice, so I can see why he tried to use In-Between now...
So this is a different sign...smile...
