The famous book Kama Sutra offers a wealth of knowledge about love and life, comprehensively guiding readers on how to live fully and wholeheartedly. In this blog series, as teachers of the Kama Sutra Palace in Hedo, we will focus on some of the more juicy parts and share a little inside info about some of the famous lovemaking positions!
We’re kicking this exploration off with a dynamic, vertical position: Climbing the Tree.
Kama Sutra poetically describes it as follows:
“When a woman, having placed one of her feet on the foot of her lover and the other on one on his thighs, passes one of her arms round his back, and the other one on his shoulder, makes slight sounds of singing and cooing, and wishes, as it were, to climb up to him in order to have a kiss, it is called an embrace like the climbing of a tree.”
We’ll offer a more practical description as well:
Standing in front of the man, the woman wraps her arms around his neck/shoulders. Keeping one leg straight, standing on the ground, her toes can cover his toes for that extra touch of sweetness. The man then lifts her other leg, wrapping it around him so that he can penetrate her easily (if height difference is bigger, he can help by bending his knees). Holding his woman’s buttocks, the man draws her pelvis toward him, filling her up completely. In this position you can also easily offer all kinds of caresses, kisses and passionate glances.
Climbing the Tree is a very good position for controlling the erotic energy, making love for a longer time and discovering the magic of multiple orgasms for both lovers – a topic that we’ll be diving into in much more depth in our upcoming Tantra immersion retreat this December.
The standing position increases the lovers’ power of control over their erotic excitement. Just like the name of this position, this effect can be further increased by focusing attention towards raising the energy upwards, allowing it to “climb” towards the top of the head and expand in a canopy of bliss.
For more knowledge on how you can harmonize, heal and deepen your relationships through the many extraordinary and unsuspected effects offered by various Kama Sutra lovemaking positions, we warmly invite you to join some of our complimentary Tantra Taster workshops every weekday, right here at the Kama Sutra Palace in Hedonism II.
