.....all the dancing and pulling on the skin around it put to much stress on it?

I shouldnt think so as look how many dancer including belly dancers have them. You would need to consider the fact that you will be wearing a leotard and most likely a wrap around skirt if you are doing proper ballet and this could rub. They are quite uncomfortable when first done and do take some considerable time to heal

It might. What you may end up doing is wrapping a bandage over it, for when you rehearse and perform. I've got a belly button piercing, and most of the time it's fine---but there are certain pants and underwear that will pull on it and aggravate it. Having something like a bandage wrap to hold it down and keep it from getting caught on clothing, etc., when it's necessary would be a good thing for someone like you.
The decoration is fun; for me, it's just a decoration (contrary to myths of extra sexual satisfaction)... and you should be okay, so long as you're smart with how you deal with it regarding work.
Oh, and for any body piercing, I recommend washing daily (or 2-3x day in the first couple of weeks) with Dial antibacterial soap. Unlike other soaps (even Softsoap antibacterial) it didn't really irritate my piercings (got nips too). It may burn for a few seconds with a new piercing, but rinse well, and you're fine. Use this stuff to keep it clean---worst enemy is infection. Belly buttons take longer than most to heal, btw., but for me, hurt far less in the getting than the nips. Heh.
Good luck, and I think you'll be just fine if you're smart and careful. :)

I don't think so because I'm a ballet dancer and a girl that I dance with has it pierced and she says it is fine.

It will for the first few days. don't dance until it's healed all the way. but then it will be fine.

The piercing will heal and then you won't even notice it.

It will be uncomfortable at first until it heals, then after that it'll be all gravy!!
