A female Ballet dancer is called a ballerina. She is a beautiful, graceful, hardworking girl.
A dancer, a ballet dancer, a danseuse or a ballerina (an all-purpose compliment for every girl who dances).
Ballerina
The funny thing is that the term "ballerina" refers to a PRINCIPAL dancer in a ballet company, not any girl who takes ballet. But now the term seems to apply to any little lady in the craft. But... the real official term (though little-known) is "danseuse."
The leading female ballet dancer in a company is usually named the prima ballerina, or something similar.
The term "danseur" is a French term meaning "male ballet dancer." Just as "danseuse" is the female equivalent. And the term "ballerina" actually is an Italian phrase for the PRINCIPAL female ballet dancer. But it has since been used by now to label ANY female taking ballet. Still, just as "ballerina" is a female ballet dancer--"ballerino" is the male equivalent in Italian.
The main female ballet dancer is known as the prima ballerina who is the leading woman dancer in a ballet company.

You would call a female dancer a "danseuse" and a male dancer a "danseur". At the Paris Opera Ballet the best dancers are called "étoiles", which means stars in French.
