AIT New Hampshire: Company History

AIT New Hampshire was founded in 2021 by Gillian Robidas and Devon Dillon-Libke. The current AIT NH Director is Gillian Robidas, who is an AIT-Certified choreographer and a member of the AIT Boston Professional Company. In its first year as a trial satellite, AIT New Hampshire held 4 seasonal seminars and launched their Junior Company. The AIT NH Junior Company performed a piece entitled “Lost Girls” which was choreographed by Gillian Robidas and performed locally as well as at the 2022 American Contemporary Skating Festival. Now as a full-time location, AIT New Hampshire has a professional company with spring performances in a variety of NH and MA locations and the satellite continues to grow with seasonal seminars, adult seminars, and crossover AIT Boston & New Hampshire collaborative events.
