She lies on her side with her top leg bent and drawn up toward her chest, almost coiled, while he positions himself behind her at an angle that allows entry while she remains curled. The coiled posture creates tension throughout her body, and movement should start slow and deliberate, gradually building as both partners settle into the angle. The "sting" comes at the peak of a slow, building rhythm.

Pillows supporting the bent leg can ease strain and help maintain the coiled position comfortably. Slow, deliberate build-up suits this position's name and energy — there is no need to rush toward intensity. Communicate as the coiled position is held over time to avoid muscle fatigue.

Couples who enjoy a slow build of tension leading to a satisfying release, with a side-lying connection that feels both intimate and intense.
