Continuing our exploration of the Kama Sutra’s famous lovemaking positions, we will share some secrets about a position called the White Tiger.
Though it may be a somewhat familiar-looking rear entry position, one of the keys to its effects is the opening of the woman’s chest so that her back arches like a sensual feline. For those with good flexibility, a more advanced version where she can place her chest directly on the bed (or floor, or sofa…) will greatly increase affective and erotic openness.
“If the lady, eager for love, goes on all fours, she can also lay her breasts, arms and forehead to the carpet, raising her buttocks high…” ~ Kama Sutra
The man can kneel behind her, or stand at the edge of the bed, holding onto her arched hips so that he can draw her towards him passionately. Though the position allows for the man to lead the rhythm with dynamic movements, he can also easily reach her hips, buttocks and lower back with his hands and offer massage and caresses.
We especially recommend some loving pressure on and around the sacrum to help her relax and open up even more deeply. Gentle strokes and light touches moving upwards along her spine will also support a deeply affectionate, intense and expansive orgasmic experience.
Considering the lack of eye contact, each of the lovers focuses on the more subtle, inner, profound connection between them. And of course, whenever she feels inspired, the woman can playfully and sensually turn her head to cast meaningful glances towards her man.
As a general note, postures that accentuate “opposites” (front to back, head to feet, mouth to groin) build erotic excitement and can rapidly generate a high erotic charge. They can be useful for men who experience difficulty in getting or maintaining an erection and we suggest they be approached attentively by those who suffer from premature ejaculation.
If you’d like to learn more about making love for a longer time and discovering the magic of multiple orgasms for both the man and the woman, we’ll be diving into the how’s and why’s in our upcoming Tantra immersion retreat this December [link].
