The ballet position in which the heels on both feet are touching is called first position.
1st position and parallel (or 6th position)

"à terre" is from the French and means "on the ground", so any position or move described like this has both feet on the floor.

3rd position with the arms: (if you understand most ballet terms) One arm is in first and the other is in 2nd. (one out one in at belly button level) Legs: Like first position but with the feet crossed over and the heel of the front foot should be connected with the arch of your back foot. Both feet are turned out. HOPE THIS HELPED!
A 'perfect' first position would be 180.
