I don't have an eye for this and I'm trying to learn, but to me it looks like she is hopping at contact or pushing up on her front toe.
She's hitting balls that are up out of the strike zone.

You are correct. She is tippy-toeing at contact.
To get into this in more detail, I prefer that my hitters take pitches during BP rather than swinging at any piece of crap that's close.
I used to watch Manny Ramirez take BP and it was striking how many balls he took (during BP).
How are you supposed to be patient and get a good pitch to hit in a game if you are practicing hitting balls?
