  1. Transition from Closed Guard to Spider Guard
  2. Transition From Spider to De La Riva and Sweep
  3. Passing the Spider Guard
This is actually:

Closed guard -> Open guard -> Spider Guard -> De La Riva Guard -> Sitting Half Guard

Then depending on your grips you can -

a. finish as your instructor did
b. finish with any number of sitting guard sweeps (holding or not holding belt/lapel)
c. finish with single leg

Lotta guards and a lotta options - keep in mind there are multiple sweeps from any one of those guards. Not to mention - transitions to other guards (X guard, instep guard, etc.) and sweeps from those too...
I call that position single leg guard a la Robson Moura, and this is not my favorite sweep from this position, i prefer the rolling under sweeps where you pass a lapel or sleeve through their legs, i also love the instep / shin guard from here.
