The Merger tantric sex position

The Merger is a great position for tantric sex. Penetration is slow and in a circular motion, always moving slowly to control the sexual energy. This position is good for pausing to caress and kiss. It doesn't allow for full bodily contact, just penetration and drawn-out pleasure.

Missionary for tantric sex

Missionary, a great sex classic, is a good position for beginners of tantric sex, even though it may be the most common, as it is the man who controls the pace and penetration and can stop for a while when he feels the urge to ejaculate, and go back to kissing and caressing.

Missionary can also be performed with the woman on top with both partners with their legs closed. This will improve friction and will help the woman in performing sliding motions.

Merger variation

Another variation of The Merger, this position gives the partners more contact, letting the woman set the pace, moving with the penis in circular motions and feeling the energy flow. However, the man needs to be able to control himself to avoid to reaching orgasm sooner than desired.

The hammock tantric sex position

Another great sex position for tantric sex is the hammock, in which the man is sitting with his legs lying flat and the woman is on top, with her knees leaning on the bed or surface. This is also great for tantric sex as the woman also sets the pace, friction is large but will allow for long sex sessions in which you can both explore each other's bodies.

Another similar position that allows for great tantric sex is the close contact position, in which both partners are sitting and warp their legs around each other. This is a more intimate and romantic sex position that will also give you hours of intense sensations.
