Stand straight with feet in parallel and a small ball between your legs (just above your ankles). Bend your knees (demi plie parallel) If you don't have a small ball, a pillow or rolled up towel will also work. With out squeezing into the ball, lift your heels slowly off the ground and continue controlling your rise until you get to the top of your demi pointe (you should still be in a bent knee position demi plie). Your big toe should be aligned and straight with the inside of your ankle.
Hold for one count and slowly lower back down, continuing to think about your alignment, and not allowing your feet to roll.
