The willow position is actually a posture mentioned in the Indian text Kama Sutra.  

STEP 1

Woman’s Position

This position is done with the woman laying flat on her back with legs spread wide and bent at the knee.

STEP 2

Man’s Position

The man kneels between her thighs.  However, instead of leaning forward in some way and pushing towards the woman to achieve penetration, the opposite movement takes place.

STEP 3

Instruction for Penetration

The man places one hand under the woman’s buttocks and reaches the woman’s back with the other hand to draw her up toward his penis.  

STEP 4

Instruction for Movement

Meanwhile, the woman clings to the man with her arm around his shoulder while she pushes upward with her feet.  She uses her other arm to support her weight, particularly her upper torso. With the man’s penis inside the woman, he can now calibrate the degree, angle and force of thrusts when he penetrates the woman.

TIPS

  • For the man, if he can achieve this position, he may enjoy controlling the degree and intensity of his thrusts.  This challenging position may be used as a transition from a sitting to a lying one.  

WARNINGS

  • Like most Kama Sutra positions though, the willow posture/position may require more athletic prowess, not to mention good flexibility from both partners.
  • The willow position may prove tiring especially for the woman, who has to balance clinging to the man with one arm and supporting her weight with the other.  Thus, this position may only be pleasurable for women strong enough to maintain the backward outstretched arm position until orgasm.  Meanwhile, the man has to pull the entire weight of the woman into him, for penetration to take place.
