AngelicaDeAlquezar is on a distinguished road
These are the ones that come to my mind:

- Leotard = leotardo (in Mexico, some people call it "payasito")
- Pointe shoes/ballet slippers = zapatillas de ballet
- Ballet bar = barra
- Tutu = tutú
- Tulle = tul
- Bun cover = chonguera ("chongo" is the hair bun)
- Tap shoes: For men "Choclos para tap" / for women: "zapatillas para tap"
- Folklore shoes = Zapatos (for men)/zapatillas (for women) para danza folklórica. For men there are also ankle boots = botines
- Non-slip rubber = suela antiderrapante
- Nails on tip and heel = clavos en punta y tacón
- Dancefloor = pista de baile
- Ballet positions = Posiciones de ballet
- Choreographer - choreography = Coreógrafo - coreografía
- Stage design - stage designer = escenografía - escenógrafo

French words are kept that way.
