SCISSOR SWEEP
The first sweep that we are going to work on form the guard position, is called the Scissor Sweep and it's called a Scissor Sweep because your legs are going to literally scissor.
So, we are in our guard. We have got our hips at a good angle and the first sweep that we are going to do is going to be a scissor sweep. What we are going to do is we are going to open our guard, we have got our one foot on the ground, and that's how we are going to put all of our weight on our shoulder, on the opposite foot and that is going to turn us into a swivel, that's called shrimping your hips out. So when I am here, I can put all my weight on the floor and I can swivel, it's very important. So I am here, I got my foot down and open my guard, I swivel and this legs comes to the ground. Right here, that way I can chop this side of his base.
This knee is going to come in and across his chest with my foot, hooking onto his ribcage, okay. This arm is going to be held the control on the back of his arms, like we set that in our bar in the other attacks and I am going to control his head and his arm. I am going to kick this leg this way, the other leg is going to kick the other way. This is going to scissor them right over into my mount. Alright, so all in one motion over here. I am controlling his head, I am controlling his arm. I open the guard, I shrimp out. This leg goes down, this knee comes across. I scissor over into the mount.
Just take a look as I am going the other way, over here I have got control of his arm, control of his head, I open my guard, my foot comes to the ground. It's my left foot on the ground, so it's my right shoulder, I can use that to swivel. So over here I swivel out, all in one motion. My far aside leg goes to ground. This knee goes across and notice how I am hooking his body as well I am going to push it. All in one motion I sweep him, over into the mount.
Different angle, over here, I open my guard, foot on the ground, shrimp out, knee goes across. I am controlling the head, I am controlling on the arm, I scissor. Over to the mount, go in the other way. Head in arm control, open the guard, shrimp out. Legs in my position, sweep over into the mount. It's called your Scissor Sweep in the guard position, it takes you from your guard to the mount.
