This fun pose can be delivered either ‘high’ or ‘low’, meaning you get two positions for the price of one.

To master it you'll need to lie on your back, propped up on your elbows and bring your legs up as high as as you can.

It's good to aim to get your legs by your ears, but it's important not to force your body into any positions that aren't comfortable.

Your partner then lies on top of you, with their arms supporting their weight, and enters you.

The Couch Canoodle

If you're ditching a posh date for a night in watching Netflix, this might be the move for you.

The Couch Canoodle is designed to be tried on the sofa and is ideal for heating things up with your partner.

Start with your partner sat on the sofa and lower yourself onto him with your knees splayed so that your legs sit either side of his lap.

Slowly lean all the way back so that you’re almost upside down, and place your hands on the floor to support yourself.

Have him enter you and then thrust back and forward while opening and closing your legs.

Missionary

Sometimes it's good to take things back to basics, and this sex position is perfect for a Valentine's steamy session with your partner.

The Missionary position has one partner on top, as the other lays flat with their legs spread either side of their partner's legs.

The partner on top will usually have more control over speed and depth in this position, so communication is key here.

The Winter Warmer

Thrust back and forth and up and down as you wrap your arms around each other.

Not only does it guarantee a mind blowing organism, but you'll forget all about the rainy weather outside as you turn the heat up inside.

The Pretzel

For a move that requires almost no effort from one partner, the Pretzel can have big results.

Simply get your partner to straddle your left leg while you are lying down and wrap your other leg around them as they penetrate you.

For a non-penetrative version, try putting your leg on your partner's right shoulder and gently grinding instead.

The Lightning Bolt

Don't be shocked - this pose guarantees maximum pleasure

This saucy position is perfect if you want to bring the spark back into your relationship - and there's no better time for that than Valentine's Day.

Your partner must maintain a tall, erect pose while you get to work.

Gently lift one leg above your lover’s head and grab it with the hand on the same side of the body.

Keep your balance by holding onto a chair or another piece of furniture and let him penetrate you from behind.

Forget thunderstorms outside, you’ll be creating your own inside.
