J9 (aka Janine Micheletti)  is a native New Yorker, a Hip-Hop dancer, and a street fusion choreographer. Her dancing credits include Madonna, 070 Shake, Spotify, Reebok and more. She is currently based out of Miami, FL.

She graduated from SUNY Purchase’s School of Art & Design with a concentration in photography. Thereafter, she has spent most of her professional life as a visual artist and accomplished textile designer. In 2009, she began taking dance classes again as a hobby. The art form quickly enraptured her as it did as a child, and since she has pursued it with fierce abandon.

This dedication has led her to being selected for the Breaking Glass: an emerging female choreographers program run by Ellenore Scott. She has since worked in the concert dance realm and the commercial dance realm, choreographing for Shenna, Calvin Play, Noia, and AGT.

J9 is currently an adjunct professor of dance at New World School of The Arts and the University of Miami in South Florida. She teaches open classes at EYS Studios on Friday evenings.
