To sign 'dancer', combine the sign for 'dance' with the 'person' ending. First, hold your non-dominant hand flat in front of you, palm facing up, to represent a floor. Form a 'V' shape with your dominant hand, pointing your fingers down like legs, and swing them back and forth over your non-dominant palm. Then, change both hands to flat shapes with palms facing each other, and move them straight down to show the 'person' who does the action.
Sign 'she', 'beautiful', and then 'dancer', making sure to include the person ending after the dance motion.
Sign 'my', 'brother', 'great', and 'dancer', swinging your 'V' hand smoothly before adding the person marker.
Sign 'dancer', 'practice', 'all-day'. Remember that 'dancer' establishes the subject before showing what they did.

The first part is the verb 'dance', and the second part is the agent marker, which means 'person'. Together, they literally translate to 'a person who dances', or 'dancer'.
Yes, if you are referring to a dancer (the noun). If you leave the agent marker off, you are just signing the verb 'dance'.
Always use your dominant hand for the moving 'legs' (the 'V' shape) and your non-dominant hand for the stationary 'floor'.
