Supported BridgeSex Position
Bridge using furniture.
The Supported Bridge is a version of the Bridge in which furniture, such as a sofa edge, ottoman or sturdy cushions, supports the arched hips or back. The furniture carries much of the weight, so you get the arch without having to hold it with your muscles alone.
📋 How to do it
- 1Choose a sturdy sofa, ottoman or stack of firm cushions at about hip height.
- 2The partner who will arch lies back with their shoulders on the floor or bed and their hips resting on the furniture.
- 3The other partner kneels or stands close, supporting the hips as needed.
- 4Adjust the height of the support until the arch feels comfortable, and move slowly.
✨ Tips for comfort & connection
Experiment with different heights to find a gentle arch. A cushion under the head and neck keeps the neck relaxed, and the supporting partner can easily adjust speed and depth.
⚠️ Safety & comfort
Make sure the furniture is stable and will not slide. Keep the neck relaxed and avoid arching the lower back too far; lower the support if it feels strained.
💡 Tips
Extra stability.
