Technique 3: Scissor sweep to Omo Plata

	Stephan has his opponent in his closed guard, and uses the basic closed guard grip on his opponent's left side
	Stephan opens his guard, shifts his hips, puts his left shin across his opponent's belly, and tries a basic scissor sweep. His opponent posts his left arm on the ground to avoid getting swept.
	Seizing the opportunity, Stephan swings his head and torso to the right. Simultaneously he shoots his right leg up under his opponent's left armpit and pushes his face away with his left hand. Note that Stephan maintains control of his opponent's left arm
	Stephan triangles his legs to trap his opponent's arm and shoulder, and prepares to sit up, which will complete the Omo Plata shoulder lock.
