How to Do the Chariot Position

He sits with his legs extended or slightly bent, and she sits facing away on his lap, leaning back against his chest. He wraps his arms around her for support, holding her hips or thighs to guide the rhythm. She can plant her feet on the bed or floor for leverage, controlling the pace with small movements while he provides the lift and depth from below. Communicate openly about pressure and pace — this position rewards a slow build with occasional firmer holds.

Tips & Variations

Use pillows behind his back for extra support during longer sessions. Try varying the rhythm between slow, deliberate lifts and quicker, lighter movements to keep things interesting. He can use his hands to add stimulation elsewhere while controlling the hold — communication about what feels best in the moment makes this position shine.

Who Is This Position Best For?

Couples who enjoy a playful power dynamic where he sets the pace but she stays close and connected. Great for sessions that mix tenderness with intensity, and comfortable enough for extended play.
