Check around the bobbin carrier area for fluff and tangled bits of thread
they get tight as they are wound around the shaft and jam between the moving bits acting like a brake
remove all threads and clean and lubricate the area

I have no power going to my Janome memory craft 11000 it's as if a fuse has blown

The Janome Memory Craft 11000 does indeed have fuses on the main circuit board. Often, if one of the motors becomes overloaded, as is occasionally the case if thread gets bound up in the hook/bobbin area, it will blow one of the fuses, to prevent serious damage to the motors or mechanical parts.
They are not easily removed at home, and doing so would not be advised as you would be dealing with delicate electronics on a very expensive machine. I would recommend taking your machine to a Janome dealer to have it fixed. There are a few other possible problems, thought the fuse is most common, and it would be better to have it diagnosed by a technician.
