How to do it: Prop yourself with some pillows and have your legs outstretched. Then, have her lower herself onto you, keeping her feet flat on the bed (or floor, or whatever). Here, she’s able to control the rhythm by pressing up through the balls of her feet.
Why it works: With this move, there’s less thrusting, more bobbing up and down, plus lots of eye contact so you can concentrate on keeping things quiet, says Kerner.
How to do it: Lie back as she lies on top of you, face to face.
Why it works: Grinding so close to each other with minimal thrusting isn’t loud at all, says Kerner. Also, this one is prime if mouth-covering is necessary.
How to do it: Lie back while you’re on top of her. Have her lift or prop up a leg for easier access.
Why it works: Like reverse missionary, this one is great for the silent factor.
How to do it: While in the missionary position, roll over to your sides. Use your arms to support your upper bodies.
Why it works: This one works because it encourages slow thrusts. Plus, your faces will be so close that you’ll see every reaction up-close, no noise necessary.
How to do it: Kneel on your knees as she squats on top of you. Have her use your shoulders to keep her balance.
Why it works: No intense thrusting, no problem, says Kerner. This is an awesome position to whisper in your partner’s ear. She’ll hear you, but nobody else will.

How to do it: You sit cross-legged, then have her sit on your lap, facing you. Next, have her wrap her legs around your back, pull each other closer, and rock back and forth.
Why it works: With your legs and arms wrapped around one another, you can look each other in the eye as you climax, says Kerner. Despite the silence, you’ll know exactly how much she’s enjoying it.
