About

Wife. Mom. Manager.
Entrepreneur. Instructor.

Like you, I wear a lot of hats — and I built J9INE FIT to prove you don't need a perfect schedule to have a strong, joyful fitness life.

The Story

Janean Benton, Founder of J9INE LLC

Janean Benton is a wife, mother of two teenage girls, a full-time corporate America manager, and an entrepreneur. Born and raised in Philadelphia, she wears just as many hats as you do — and knows life can get hectic on any given day.

Her love for dance and fitness propelled her into the fitness industry as a Dance Fitness and Strength Training Instructor. With over a decade of experience, she brings a diverse range of dance styles to her classes — including hip-hop, salsa, urban, and more — with infectious enthusiasm that inspires participants of all ages and fitness levels to let loose and enjoy the rhythm of the music while breaking a sweat.

Janean understands that a truly balanced fitness journey is built on nutrition, cardio, and strength training working together — and that losing weight or gaining muscle can be challenging and frustrating. Her philosophy is simple: when you're doing a fitness program you can get excited about, you're more likely to stick with it.
