Perfect for couples who love a slower, more sensual vibe, The Boa brings intimacy, comfort, and plenty of opportunity to switch things up. So get cosy, get close, and don’t be fooled: this super simple position provides a whole lot of pleasure.

What is The Boa sex position?

The Boa is a close, curled-up variation of a face-to-face sex position, inspired by the way a snake coils around something (hence the name). It’s super simple, all about that full body contact, and focuses on closeness and control.

How to do The Bown Down position

Climb on top of your partner, support your weight with your hands as you lean forward; intertwine your legs and grind your way to orgasm. The Boa provides direct stimulation to the clitoris, making it the perfect position to try if you usually struggle to reach climax from intercourse alone. Make the most of this romantic sex position with plenty of kissing and maybe even a side of dirty talk. Slow and steady wins the race with this position so make the most of slowing it down and re-connecting.

Benefits of The Bown Down sex position

Our fave thing about The Boa is that it’s all about getting wrapped up in the moment, quite literally. It’s super close-contact, meaning the intimacy levels are high, encouraging you to stay connected and enjoy a slower, more sensual pace.
It’s also an easy position to change up the angles slightly, adding a little variety to your usual go-to moves. This is one of those positions where you can just relax, get comfortable and focus on enjoying every part of each other.

How to maximise pleasure in The Bown Down position

If you need a little more stimulation to get you to the finish line, cool things down. Add a new sensation with a tingle lube. The contrast between the heat of your bodies together and the cool freshness of the lube will heighten feelings and build awareness, taking you to next level orgasm.
If you’re still left wanting more, try out a cock ring. They provide direct vibration to the clitoris and The Boa is the perfect position for this kind of toy. The pressure between the two of you will allow for constant stimulation, with the angle and pressure keeping the cock ring firmly against your clit.

Tips for The Bown Down Position

  • • Don’t force the coiled together shape - there’s no prize for creating a perfect shape. Adjust your bodies until you find what feels comfortable rather than trying to copy a picture-perfect pose.
  • • Use pillows – never underestimate a pillow. Popping one under the hips, knees, or lower back can help take pressure off and make the position easier to maintain. Plus, the slight elevation will make things feel so much better.
  • • Relax – you don’t want tension to ruin the moment. Just relax and enjoy it.
  • • Make small adjustments when you need to - a little change in leg placement or body angle can completely transform how comfortable it feels for you.
  • • Take it slow - The Boa is all about closeness and connection, so there’s no need to rush to the finish line. Let the moment and sensations build naturally.
