Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
To be a professional ballerina you will need to take exams!
the dance industry will not accept dancers without the right grade or degree!.

also, if you have BAL or RAD etc!. next to your name on a resume for a dance studio,
they will surely allow you to teach!.!.
you can search through different dance school sites!.!.
they all have a grade in dance overall!.

becoz your very good at it!! Give a go at exams!
once your have seaten your exams you'll likely move up to a higher grade!.!.
therefore you'll be en pointe quicker!.

Hope this helped
