If the foot stool isn't working, I'd recommend playing at a table with the guitar propped up on the table so that one bout sits on your right leg and the other bout sits on the table. Fernando Sor advocated this as the best position long ago in his method. Works great for me. Very stable if you put one of those non-slip cloths on the edge of the table. You can have the guitar centered and high enough without contorting the body. I also find the traditional flamenco playing position where the guitar is held up by only the right arm and right thigh can be a good alternative to footstools and guitar supports.
