A:

(B) actually struggling with practicing ballet itself?
If (A): "Billy seems to be struggling because of his gender identity and his love for ballet."
If (B): "Bully seems to be struggling with his gender identity and ballet."

Q:
Dear Billy
I receive an e-mail dated March 15 entitled Membership Drive.
I would like to make two suggestions and explain one problem.
Firstly, why don't we reduce our membership fee? I've heard several members who quit our club last year that the membership fee is a little expensive.
Secondary, I recommend that you throw a commercial on the English Language Learner. I think the paper is popular who want to learn English conversation.
And I have a problem. I have to move from New York to Boston next month. So, I'm afraid I can't stay the member. I'm so ashamed.
Best regards,
Atsushi

This is very good! Almost natural, but still easy to understand.
Let me explain my corrections:
1) Greetings traditionally have a comma at the end: “Dear Billy,”
2) “receive” needs to be in past tense “received” because the action is completed.
3) “who” is unnecessary here.
(In Japanese, perhaps something like: “やめた会員と聞いた” instead of 会員がやめたと聞いた)
4) “that” should be “because”
5) “Secondly” is correct. We use it for lists (firstly, secondly, thirdly...). Secondary is an adjective meaning “not as important” (二次的)
6) “put up an advertisement” is a phrase. Also, commercials are for television and radio, advertisements are for newspapers. (Advertisements can also be used when talking about TV or radio, but newspapers never have commercials.)
7) I added “newspaper” to be clearer.
8) “and I have a problem” sounds a little strange. The new sentence sounds more natural to me.
9) “the” should be “as” (if you want to say 会員としてとどまることができません in Japanese)
10) “ashamed” is a very strong feeling in English. Usually we would apologize simply with something like “I am very sorry”
