In Ballet it would be called "standing on the ball of the foot." this is all the toes and the pad of the foot still in contact with the floor. However if you were to stand right on the end of your toes, this is with only the ends of your toes suporting your weight this would be called "en pointe" (on point) of course you are not advised to do this unless you have the correct training and special shoes.

What is the best way to get rid of a cramp in your toes?

Okay, many you may think that you would need to pull you toe or massage it... THAT'S NOT IT! The best way that I found was to stand on you tiptoes for a long time. If you're tired of standing just sit on the edge of a chair and put your foot in the fashion that you would when you are on your tiptoes. Hope this helps! --Ruby;)
