Pedaling problem

As my teacher has told me, I have started practicing using the pedals with the inside of my foot. This is an adjustment has been a challenge after doing the outside of my foot for close to 30 years. Since I have been doing this I have been getting cramps in my toes. I have been bunching up my toes. I noticed when I went to my lesson this week, my toes did not hurt and realized that I had the bench to close to the organ. Things are going much better.
