Kama Sutra positions work well for couples wanting more than quick sex. These eight options focus on face to face contact with slow synced movements. You can do them at home without special tools. Pick one and spend time in it before you change. Notice how your partner reacts to different speeds. Adjust your bodies until it feels right for both of you. This helps you learn more about each other over time.
Action
One partner lies on their back while the other lies on top facing them. Keep faces close for eye contact and kissing. Rock your hips slowly together. This lets you see every change in expression and respond right away to what feels good.
Pro-Tip
Put a pillow under the hips to improve the angle and comfort.
Spicy Twist
Hold each other's hands above the head during movement.
Action
Lie on your sides facing the same direction. The back partner enters while you stay pressed together. Make small movements with your hips. Your bodies touch from top to bottom the entire time.
Pro-Tip
The front partner bends one knee to adjust how it feels.
Spicy Twist
The back partner kisses the neck and shoulders.
After dark
Action
Sit facing each other with your legs wrapped around one another. Hold each other with your arms for balance. Rock gently back and forth instead of bouncing up and down. Your chests stay in contact.
Pro-Tip
Sit on the bed so you can fall back if your legs get tired.
Spicy Twist
Keep eye contact for the full duration.

Common Questions
The positions require you to stay close and move slowly. You have time to make eye contact and see your partner's face. This makes the experience more personal than fast sex.
Choose one easy position first. Discuss it with your partner in advance. Move slowly and communicate during the act. Use lube and stop if it hurts.
Avoid rushing or forcing complicated positions. Do not ignore your partner's signals. Focus on enjoyment rather than perfect technique.
