Alexander Benoit (born October 9, 1995) is an American actor and former competitive ice dancer.

After finishing high school through distance education, he enrolled at Oakland University in Rochester Hills, Michigan, where he pursued a Bachelor of Fine Arts/Theatre degree.

[4] Benoit decided to switch to ice dancing after being diagnosed with a congenital knee condition that was aggravated by his flip and lutz jumps.

[3][5] Benoit teamed up with Elliana Pogrebinsky in March 2014 after a tryout in Novi, Michigan, that was suggested by Igor Shpilband.

During the 2015–16 ISU Junior Grand Prix series, Pogrebinsky/Benoit placed fourth in Linz, Austria, and won the bronze medal in Logroño, Spain.

During this season, Pogrebinsky/Benoit debuted a new move, which they named the "Fountain Lift", in their Layla and Majnun-themed free dance.

It consisted of Benoit skating on a deep outside spread eagle while Pogrebinsky performed an arched-back handstand on his knees.

Benoit announced his retirement from competitive skating on March 20, 2018, to finish his college education and to pursue his acting career.

[7] In January 2022, Benoit starred in the official music video of Jameson Rodgers' country hit, "Missing One".

In 2020, Benoit announced his engagement to Canadian actress Jordan Grier, whom he met while studying at LAMDA.
