The Expert Guide to Positions is brought to you by Vivid Entertainment and is narrated by Tristan Taormino. It stars Faith Leon, Celina Cross, Sandra Romain, Courtney Simpson, Amber Rayne, Marcos Leon, Christian, Jerry, and Sascha.



The main purpose of this video is the instructional aspect of it, although the added options are a nice addition to the DVD. If you don't watch the entire DVD at once, the positions are grouped into three parts: missionary styles, positions where you lie down, and standing up variations. Each instructional scene is narrated by Tristan and is about 3 minutes long. Tristan discusses the comfort, communication, access, angles & depths, friction, orgasm ability, and energy/vibe of each different position. She will also go over different variations and several pop-up text boxes will appear in all of the scenes giving a tip or showing what each one is good for, such as kissing, dirty talking, or clitoral stimulation. All the while the pornstars are demonstrating the position, different variations, and showcasing the benefits of each style.

I thought Tristan Taormino's Guide to Positions was a great way for beginners and experienced couples alike to find a new position to try or revisit a favorite position and find a new variation. The porn music was very low and not distracting during the scenes. The only typical porno aspect were the white tarps and concrete floors. All in all, job well done with this video. It serves its purpose and the non-instructional scenes are fun to revisit!
