If you don't know what rolling through your demi-pointe means, I am surprised you are en pointe. It means don't just hop up on your shoes. To releve or eleve up on them rolling through the demi pointe position. "Get in your box" means to make sure you are solidly in it, as opposed to being over it or not up in it. Solidly on top on it. You should look like you are nailed straight to the floor and perfectly vertical on your leg and foot in complete alignment.
