Michael Johnson’s journey is anything but ordinary—and that’s exactly what makes his message unforgettable.
A former professional ballroom dancer turned business strategist and keynote speaker, Michael blends the grace of performance with the grit of entrepreneurship to help leaders and organizations choreograph their own path to impact.
From the stage to the boardroom, from the dance floor to the C-suite, Michael’s career has been dedicated to one thing: helping people unlock their unique human advantage in a world increasingly run by machines.header
Michael began ballroom dancing at age five, rising through the ranks to become a championship-level performer, judge, adjudicator, and examiner. He went on to build and operate multiple companies—ranging from dance studios to marketing firms to software platforms—and eventually became COO of a tech company, bringing artistry to operations and innovation to structure.
Today, he is the co-founder of Business Choreography, a company that helps entrepreneurs and businesses design systems that create lasting impact—systems that, much like a great performance, move with rhythm, precision, and soul.
You were never meant to be ordinary. You were built to move people.
While most speakers talk about leadership, innovation, or resilience in isolation, Michael fuses them into something far more memorable. His keynotes are performances with a purpose, combining compelling storytelling, real-world frameworks, and live choreography demonstrations that make the message resonate on a deeper level.
