ROLLING OMOPLATA: Tuesday Tutorial #50 with HELIO SONECA

From Core Combat Sports

June 6, 2017

96' World Champ & the current BJJ Legends Bantamweight Champ, Helio Soneca, shows us his famous omoplata!

He shows 2 variations of this technique. The first one being sprawling on a single leg and forcing your opponent to lose the grip. The second is a variation is when your opponent keeps the grip, which Soneca learned from the great Jean Jacques Machado.

It's a mess, I know.

My goal is to build the most comprehensive BJJ encyclopedia anywhere — but good, accurate data is genuinely hard to come by. Records, gyms, belts and nationalities are pieced together from public and community sources, so some of it is incomplete, outdated, or flat-out wrong.

That's where you come in. If you spot something off, tell me and I'll fix it — every correction makes this better for everyone. This website wouldn't be possible without the community.
