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).
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.
BallerinaThe 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."
I am a Ballet Dancer and yes we do use props but not like big heavy ones more like ribbons and things of that sort.

Any dancer can dance beutifully if they are skilled and prescise in their movements. Pointe shoes definately help to create a sense of grace and beauty. Hope I helped!
Um yeah all the time. Yes, classical music is I think the only music used in ballet. For any other question about dance ask me as I am a talented dancer. I specialise in Hip-Hop, Ballet and Contempory.

Any age is a good time to start but if you are 20 it would be very hard to become a professional ballet dancer. If you are just doing it for fun and for exercise that is okay.
