Double shifting with DT shifters technique - one hand or two?

Yesterday, I was riding in a hilly area and found myself having to simultaneously shift the FD and RD.

I never had formal instruction on shifting theory and live in a flat area so I normally keep it in the big ring.

When I was double shifting, I used my right thumb to shift the FD and my fingers to shift the RD.

This one-handed approach seemed natural and worked well. Is this how it was done BITD?
