I strongly disagree. The proper two point is found by:
1)balancing off the innner-back thigh and calf. NEVER the stirrups/knees. When a rider uses the latter to "grip" to the saddle, a pivot is formed, thrusting the body of the rider onto the horse's forehand, creating too much weight.
2)The heels should be down just to where they can function as shock absorbers.
3)Maintain a straight, supple back. NOT a hollow or hunched back.
4)The hands should stay about four inches ahead of the regular position, NEVER in the "air."
5)Have a trainer watch to evaluate your progress.

The proper method is to
1)sit deeper in the saddle
2)sit up straight and push your shoulder's back
3)stop the movement of the elbows with the horse INSTEAD OF PULLING/SQUEEZING/YANKING/etc.
