Balanced intensity — climbs steadily with the right tempo.

Step-by-step

  1. 1Begin with a silent bow.
  2. 2Move into face-to-face seated closeness.
  3. 3Each motion is announced by a breath.
  4. 4End with another silent bow.

Communication tips

  • Speak only with breath sounds.
  • Trade who initiates each motion.
  • End with shared silence.

Health benefits

  • Builds ritualized presence.
  • Encourages deep attention.
  • Profoundly calming.

Body adjustments

  • Sit bones grounded: rock forward until you feel both sitting bones evenly planted, then lengthen the spine upward as if a thread lifts the crown.
  • Knees lower than hips: slide a folded blanket under both seats so the pelvis tilts slightly forward — this protects the lower back and opens the hip crease.
  • Pelvic tilt: the receiving partner can rock the pelvis a few degrees forward or back to fine-tune angle of contact; small shifts change sensation more than big thrusts.
  • Shoulders soft and wide: roll them down and away from the ears so the chest stays open and breath flows to the belly.
  • Foot placement: if legs wrap, hook the ankles loosely behind the lower back — not the kidneys — and keep the toes relaxed, not pointed hard.

Partner cues

Receiver

  • Lift through the crown and let the pelvis rock freely — your spine is the wave, not your legs.
  • Use your inner thighs to gently squeeze your partner's hips; small squeezes change pace better than verbal cues.
  • If your hip flexors tighten, lean back onto your hands for 30 seconds to reset, then return.

Giver

  • Anchor your sit bones first; if your seat moves, your whole frame loses honesty of contact.
  • Place hands at the low back, not the shoulders — support comes from below the pelvis.
  • Lead the rocking from your tailbone, not your shoulders, so the motion is hip-driven and breath-paced.

Props & setup

  • Firm cushion or meditation bolster for sit bones.
  • Folded blanket under knees.
  • Optional: a sturdy chair without armrests.

Safety & comfort

  • Stop and reset if any joint reports a sharp or sudden pain — sharp pain is information, not weakness.
  • Empty pockets, remove jewelry, and trim nails before close contact positions.
  • Use lubricant generously; friction is the most common reason a position 'doesn't feel right'.
  • Reset every 5–10 minutes: shake out the hands, roll the shoulders, hydrate.
