He currently resides in Belgium where he creates and performs with Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui in Eastman. Before relocating to Belgium, Ahern worked full time as dancer and dance captain for NYC based Pilobolus Dance Theatre from 2010 until his departure in 2017. During his tenure at Pilobolus he created more than 15 touring dance-theatre works, in addition to many other productions for film, stage and print. During his years in Pilobolus, Ahern had the pleasure of collaborating on productions with M.I.T.
