8 Mind-Blowing Chair Sex Positions to Try Tonight, Recommended by Sex Experts

Benefits: According to Lawless, this chair position—also sometimes known as "the archer" or "the bow and arrow"—has several selling points. Namely, it offers deeper penetration, as well as both clitoral and G-spot stimulation."Because it offers eye contact and a great deal of skin-to-skin contact, it also allows for intense intimacy," she adds. "Another benefit of this position is the ease of access to erogenous zones such as the neck and breasts."

How to do it: Partner A—the receiver—lies back in an armchair while partner B—the giver—kneels directly in front of them. From there, partner B can lunge forward with their right leg, lift partner A's left leg and drape the leg over their shoulder. Partner A should lean back and rest their left hand on the outside of partner B’s right knee. They can also hook their right foot around the back of partner B’s thigh. Partner B can hold onto the back of partner A’s thigh while thrusting. If this feels too intense for the receiver, they can lower their ankle off their partner’s shoulder and wrap it around their back Once in this position, both partners can enjoy making deep eye contact, kissing, and caressing each other.

Benefits: According to Lawless, this position works best with an armless chair that has a tall back. Her favorite part? It allows for lots of intense eye contact and deep penetration.

How to do it: Partner A with a penis or strap-on sits in the chair while partner B straddles and rides them. Partner B can put their hands on their partner’s shoulders or quads for support and stability while partner A grips their hips.

If partner B is flexible enough, they can kick things up a notch by placing their ankles on partner A’s shoulders, resting their hand on partner A’s knees, and leaning back while partner A holds onto their lower back.

Benefits: This position doesn’t require any complicated acrobatics—and may even be more comfortable than performing oral sex on a bed. Lawless highly advises placing a pillow or folded blanket underneath the giver’s knees for added cushioning and comfort.

How to do it: The receiving partner sits on the edge of the chair, while the other partner kneels between their legs to perform oral sex. If the giver wants to enjoy some stimulation at the same time, Lawless suggests using a suction-cup dildo or another hands-free sex toy.

Benefits: This popular position remains a crowd favorite for a reason: it offers lots of G-spot stimulation for the person on top and a killer view for the person on bottom. Using a chair to perform not only gives the riding partner more control but also makes it more comfortable: they’re less likely to get fatigued because they can support their body on the ground. Plus, Mintz notes that the person on top can easily reach down to play with their partner’s balls, while the person on bottom can reach around to stimulate their partner’s nipples or clitoris.

How to do it: Partner A with a penis or strap-on sits down in the chair while partner B faces away from them and sits down in their lap (so they’re looking at partner A’s feet). Partner B carefully inserts the penis or dildo inside them and begins riding. They can rest their hands on partner A’s thighs and experiment with leaning forward at different angles to find what feels good.

Benefits: Tying your partner up—or being tied up—can be a fun way to ramp up the anticipation and even dip your toe into BDSM. No bedposts? No problem. Searah Deysach, sex educator and owner of Early to Bed, suggests using a chair instead. Just make sure you establish a safe word so the person being restrained knows they can press pause or communicate when something doesn’t feel right.

How to do it: Partner A sits in the chair and partner B secures them to the chair with rope, a bathrobe belt, a silk tie, or whatever restraints they have on hand. Partner B can then tickle, tease, and stimulate partner A. This might mean kissing their whole body without ever touching their erogenous zones or using a vibrator or your tongue all around their clit without actually making contact with it. When they can’t take it anymore, partner B can straddle and ride them, or perform oral sex on them.

Benefits: A huge selling point of the lotus position “is the level of intimate connection that comes from being face-to-face,”

Megan Fleming, Ph.D., sex expert for Lovehoney, previously told Men's Health. “From a Tantric perspective, you have eye-gazing (i.e., staring deeply into your partner's eyes), but you can also easily kiss your partner.”

How to do it: The penetrating person (partner A) sits cross-legged on the chair as the receiver (partner B) faces them and climbs on top of them. After partner B wraps their arms and legs around their partner, they can ride them at whatever pace feels good—and for clitoral stimulation, they can try rocking their hips back and forth rather than bouncing up and down. Since both partners’ hands are free in this position, you can both explore each other’s erogenous zones or even stimulate your own.

Benefits: This position may be a bit more physically challenging, but if your partner has the core strength the pleasure payoff is massive, says Amber Shine, a certified sex therapist, love coach, and manager at XFansHub. Ideally, you’ll need a wider chair with no arms.

How to do it: There are two ways to get into the wheelbarrow:

The penetrating partner (partner A) sits at the edge of a chair, while the receiver (partner B) rides them while facing away. (Both partners should be looking in the same direction.) Partner B then bends over to get on all fours, and proceeds to perform a plank pose, pressing their weight into their hands and lifting their knees off the floor. From here, partner A can help to lift partner B’s legs off the floor, and up onto the chair. Partner B’s knees can rest on the chair outside of partner A’s hips. Partner B may need to scoot back a bit until partner A can insert their penis inside them. Then, partner A can hold onto partner B’s thighs for leverage as they thrust.

Alternatively, partner A can start in reverse cowgirl position, and then lean forward and rest their hands on the floor while partner B lifts their legs onto the chair.

Benefits: If doggy style is one of your go-to positions, Denyer highly recommends trying it standing up with a chair. This simple twist makes it easier on everyone’s knees.

How to do it: The receiving partner (partner A) stands facing the chair, with the penetrating partner (partner B) standing behind them. Partner A then leans forward and rests their hands on the seat as partner B penetrates them. Partner B can hold on to their hips for leverage as they thrust. Partner A can also try lifting one or both knees onto the seat and holding onto the back of the chair—but if the seat isn’t cushioned, you may want to place a pillow down first for the sake of comfort.
