I agree with lots of what has been said. If you lower into the knee and feel a slight swaying action on the rise then the heel ball rise feels a lot smoother. The key is to lower into the knee and feel a V shape forming between you on the fall. If you can do this, then ballroom is your thing. Good luck :)

Aussielad. After reaching the ball there is still a way to go to reach the toe. I believe in the books it is down as HT and not HB.It would go without saying that to reach the toe we would have to pass the ball of the foot. So it doesn't get a mention.
