Although all Ballet positons involve turned out feet, the simplest one is first position. Heels are touching and toes face out, as far away from each other as possible (close to 180 degrees of rotation).
5 positions... the only position that is not turned out is parallel
Basic ballet moves are known as 'positions'. There are five. For example, in first position, the dancer's feet are turned out, with heels touching. In second position the feet are moved apart.
The ballet position in which the heels on both feet are touching is called first position.
there's a lot, but here's are a few: first position- heels together, feet turned out second position- feet turned out, heels apart third position- one heel on front of the other, turned out fourth position croisee (crossed)- feet parrallel, turned out, one in front of the other. space in between feet. one toe will be adjacent from the opposite heel and vice versa. fourth position ouverte (open)- feet parrallel, turned out, one in front of the other. space in between feet. one heel will be adjacent from the other fifth position- feet parrallel, turned out, one in front of the other. no space in between feet. tondue- extending one leg forward while still standing on the other leg demi plie- (half bend) bending the knees halfway in first, second, third, fourth or fifth position grande plie- (big bend) fully bending the knees in first, second, third, fourth or fifth position releve- (raise) pressing onto the balls of both feet pirouette-(spin/whirl) complete turn of the body on one foot, other foot in passe degage- (disengage) leg is thrown into a position much like a tondue, but above the ground.
feet parallel together

1st position- feet are turned out (toes pointing outward) and heels are together. 2nd position- same as first position but the heels are not touching, they are slightly more than hip width apart. 3rd position- (not commonly used in ballet, but still a position) feet are turned out and the heel of one foot is in front of the other and is touching the middle of the side of that foot. 4th position- feet are turned out and one foot is about a 6 inches to 1foot in front of the other foot. 5th position- same as fourth, but the feet are touching, heel to toe 6th position- (not commonlyl used in ballet) feet are together, not turned out.
The ballet position in which the heels on both feet are touching is called first position.
I think you mean the five positions. In First Position your heels are touching with your toes turned away from your body. In Second Position your feet are shoulder width apart and toes turned away from body. In Third Position your feet are turned outwards but one heel is on the middle inside of the foot In Fourth Position your feet are turned outwards and separated one foot is about 5 in. to 1 ft. in front. In Fifth Position your feet are turned outwards and one heel touches the tip of your toes.

turned in 1st is called 6 position.
feet parallel together
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!
Modern ballet focuses on natural movement and traditional ballet has more stricter rules. For example, if a traditional ballet dancer is just standing on stage, their legs have to be turned out and in first position. But if it were a modern ballet dancer, their legs would not be turned out and they would be in parallel position.
