Yoga lessons
It's a yoga instructor giving directions of how to make the asana postures.
This particular one is in laying down position.
The phrase reads: You get 3 points if besides stretching the leg, we are able to "empinar el pie derecho".
What does it mean - raise the foot doesn't make sense, to stand in your tip toes? (but the person is laying down?)

Declined
Reclining Big Toe (Supta Pandangusthasana) – From corpse pose, bend first knee in toward torso while pressing the other leg downward to floor and its heel forward (ankle dorsiflexion); place strap under arch of first foot, holding strap with both hands; straighten the first knee; repeat with other leg.

I think it means bending the ankle so that the foot is at a right angle to the leg.

Ah, I forgot to mention that the person is lying down, not laying down.

Traditional Method. Lie supine on mat, flex involved hip, extend knee and dorsiflex ankle. Place strap around bottom of foot, or grab foot/big toe, and pull hip further into flexion. Common adjustments include teacher pushing student’s hip further into flexion and pushing opposite hip further into floor or student pulling herself further into passive ranges.

It's just occurred to me that I don't know if the person is lying face up (supine position) or face down (prone position).
If the person is face down, then 'empinar el pie' would mean 'point the foot downwards/lift the heel'
Medical Definition of plantar flexion
: movement of the foot in which the foot or toes flex downward toward the sole—compare dorsiflexion

i think is "Tilt the right foot" like bend the ankle
Discussion
Supongo que por lo difícil del ejercicio, doblar el pie hacia la pierna amerita recompensa. (To bend, to curve?)
