The Acrobat sexual position is an extreme position that plays off the Rodeo sexual position. The male lies flat on his back with legs extended. The female mounts the male on her knees. When penetration occurs, the female lays back so her back is resting on the chest of her male partner. The male tends to control thrusting.

 

Pros of the Acrobat Sexual Position
Couples tend to love the intimacy associated with this position. Male control of thrusting takes a bit of the power away from the female, but also reduces the impact on the female physically. This position is perfect for couples with large height differences.

Cons of the Acrobat Sexual Position
The female must lay back with knees on either side of the male. This can place extreme pressure on the knees.

Tips for the Acrobat Position
If pressure on the knees and legs of the female becomes too intense or causes pain, the female can extend the legs forward and parallel to the male’s legs. This helps to reduce pressure on knee joints.
