Basic Tantric Yoga Positions



I first learned about Tantric Yoga Positions in an interview with Sting.
Sure, there were all kinds of stories and rumours about what positive effects Tantric Yoga had on Sting's love making...

..rumours he ultimately dismissed as exaggerated.


However, when you Google “Tantric Yoga Poses” the first page of results all alludes to (or outright ensures!) to better love making. Results ranged from offering a "Deeper Connection"  (emotionally, not physically.)  to the promise of a "Recharged Sex Life"



HOWEVER, some sites were classy enough (and perhaps emotionally adult enough. LOL) to talk more about the mind-heart balance than the flexibility needed for a night of marathon lovemaking. 


All kidding aside, it's a catch .22 of sorts.
Tantric Yoga does provide for better flexibility and better control of one's breath as well as body.  There are all kinds of health benefits to these features...but they are also traits that Yoga Man can capitalize on to be a superb lover.

It also doesn't hurt/help (depending on your perspective) that some of poses done with a partner appear to simulate certain love making positions.  (if you having clicked the above links yet, you might now. Depending on what your love making interests are, of course.) 

So our Man-who-does-Yoga can look into some of these positions and poses and see if there is anything he can incorporate into his work out.  And you can take "work out" any way you want...


A few years ago I found several sources online that discussed the history and background of Tantric Yoga. Oddly, when I revisited them today, they were all dead links.  Either the material wasnt worth saving...or Tantric Yoga lovers don't pay their internet bill.  ;) 

But all kidding aside, here is a link that explains the Tantric Roots of Hatha Yoga.
It's pretty in-depth, so I'll likely break it down and discuss further in a future post.
