Well in French, the language in which Ballet terms are used, down is "en bas," but a basic ballet move that goes down is a "plié." I'm not sure which one you're looking for.

If a female is a ballerina what is a male ballet dancer called?

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.
