Butter Churn

Intense, inverted, and absolutely unforgettable. This position requires commitment and rewards it with sensations that defy description.

How to Do the Butter Churn Position

She lies on her back and brings her legs up and over, with hips lifted toward the ceiling and knees near her shoulders (similar to a shoulder stand), while he kneels in front, holding her hips or lower back for support and control. This is an advanced, deep-angle position — start with a modified version (hips raised on pillows rather than a full inversion) and build up gradually as flexibility allows.

Tips & Variations

This position requires good flexibility and core strength from the receiving partner — never push into discomfort. A modified version with hips elevated on a stack of pillows offers similar angles with far less strain. Go slowly, communicate constantly, and stop if anything feels uncomfortable.

Who Is This Position Best For?

Flexible, adventurous couples looking for an intense, deep-angle experience. Best attempted after warming up with simpler positions, and approached with patience rather than as a first move.
