Tantric sex offers an amazing opportunity connect with your partner on a deeply intimate level through eye contact and breathing, but it can also help you to become more creative in the bedroom thanks to its many different positions.

If you've mastered the basics and are searching for a more challenging position, then look no further than the Passion Pretzel! Difficult to execute, but worth the effort (trust us), here's how you do it:
How to do it
Start by kneeling on the floor face-to-face. Next, you and your partner will position opposite legs in a right angle (foot on the floor, like you're proposing). Work you way towards your partner until your legs, bodies, and genitals slot together like a puzzle. Finally, rock back and forwards with your partner (whilst remaining vertical) as you explore each other's erogenous zones with your lips ad hands.
Pro-tip, place a yoga mat underneath you for knee protection!
Why its great
The passion pretzel is one of the few poses where you and your partner are in the same position. This allows for a true sense of equality during sex and enables you to maintain intimate eye contact with each other. If you're a vulva-owner, this position also provides added clitoral stimulation as you grind against your partner's pubic bone. And, with all the touching that this position encourages, you'll soon find yourself on a slow build to an almighty climax!
