The Movement Membership

A premier ballet online membership designed specifically to help adult beginner dancers who want to consistently come to the barre and learn the proper technique — but can’t make it into the studio — improve their practice from home.

Your all-access pass to practicing ballet wherever you are (no leotard or tights required!)

Listen.

You’ve gotten the basics down and you’re probably practicing a little, but you want to dance MORE often, but you…..

Wouldn’t it be great if…

You could practice consistently without having to go into the studio (and feel anxious because people are watching you as you’re watching someone else thinking…. uhhh don’t follow me!).

You could hit the “pause” button on class and rewind the parts you need to get it right, so that you can feel confident and dance with ease.

… And you could do it all from HOME!

Which is why I created….

The Movement Membership!

The Movement Membership is a multi-layered membership that allows you to DANCE consistently with unlimited access to technique training, so you can practice regularly and be ready to master class combinations whenever you get into the studio.

What’s Inside The Movement Membership?

1

Monthly Technique Intensive

Beginner dancers need technique classes to slow down a bit. In the Movement Membership, dancers secure access to a monthly Technique Intensive that breaks down advanced ballet steps into simple strategies and allows dancers to MOVE confidently away from the barre.

2

The Movement Membership Portal

Provides all-access to our exclusive ballet training library that includes two (2) new digital ballet classes each month so you can practice proper alignment, ballet vocabulary and combination retention in the comfort of your own home.

Exclusive Facebook Community

Why be on this journey along? Join a safe community of like-minded adults who have the strength, grit, and utter courage that it takes to start as a beginner, to develop their minds, train their bodies, and humble their soul as an adult beginner dancer!

Testimonials

“Janicka is an INCREDIBLE instructor. She has a perfect balance of toughness and kindness. She teaches technique, skill, poise, and terminology with impeccable precision. She is also very friendly, engaging, and inspirational! She’ll keep you in the game. You will love her…try her class”!”

“Whether you have studied dance or stepping up to the barre for the first time, you ARE a dancer in Janicka’s studio. I hadn’t attempted ballet in 30 years when I enrolled in her adult beginner series. Her instruction is technical and rigorous, and her passion for teaching adults shines through in her warm support of every dancer on the floor”

“I love love love Janicka Arthur. She’s been my ballet teacher for close to a couple of months now, and I’m convinced there’s not a soul that meets her that she doesn’t instantly connect with on some type of level. A teacher lovingly inspires, motivates, and leads with consistency and she nails it every time. She has nothing to prove, but is constantly pushing herself and others to their full potential. Not often you meet a life coach of her caliber in the classroom that helps transform your mentality in such a short period of time”
