Kaci and I are excited to announce that we’ll be teaching an Acro Play class at Gateway Yoga starting this Friday, January 8th, from 6:15-7:30. This 8 week class focuses primarily on acro-yoga and group balancing, while incorporating some circus fundamentals, including ball work, jump roping, plate spinning, and juggling basics. All skill levels are welcome! We look forward to exploring new poses and acro possibilities as the class evolves with the creativity of the students!! Hope to see you there.
The first class is free! The 8 week session is $108 or drop in for $15.

Hello friends! Thanks to everyone who made it out to First Friday in downtown Raleigh. It was cold outside but your love and support keeps us warm on the inside, for sure! In case you missed the Art Walk and an awesome street performance, you have a couple chances to see our amazing stage routine this week:
- On Wednesday (11/11) we will be at the Berkely Cafe in Raleigh and should take the stage around 10:30pm. Its open mic night so there will be a lot of great music to enjoy while you wait!
- On Thursday (11/12) we are performing at the Local 506 with the amazingly awesome Chapel Hill favorite, Lake Inferior. They are releasing their 2nd EP, this time on a 7″ vinyl record. Join us aboard the SS Pegasaur for an intergalactic dance party with one of the Triangle’s hottest bands!
In other news, I had a great time working at Phish Festival 8 and learned a few new tricks while hanging out in the desert of Indio, California. Maybe my new friend Trey will invite Acroentertainment to jam with his band someday….

We had a blast this past weekend at the 24th International Festival of Raleigh. Rocking the kid’s area, “Sophia’s Corner,” we taught juggling, hosted hula jams, refereed limbo contests, painted on canvas, drew with markers, danced with scarves, and performed for the crowds!
Our faces stayed painted all weekend by Paint Savvy, an NC based high-quality professional face painting company. Working in the Kid’s Area, Paint Savvy jazzed up faces and even did air-brush “tattoos” for the kids.
We also worked along side the Balloon Fairy and Clowns from Mountain Circus Arts. Based in Asheville, NC, this creative group of dynamic individuals kept us entertained all weekend. I’ve never seen such amazing balloon sculptures–from fairy wings and swords to Jerry Garcia and Bob Marley! Randall the Clown kept the jokes coming and Marcy the Balloon Fairy twisted one-of-a-kind balloon pieces of art.
Kaci and Kenny the Clown teamed up on the unicycle for some balancing magic! 
And what’s the International Festival without the wonderful food! Living it up at the “Side Walk Cafes,” we tasted a myriad of cultural foods. After my journeys through the festival, I found my favorite meals; drum roll please. For the best value, two days in a row, I ate the Bangladesh veggie platter including a samosa, two pakoras, chana (chickpeas), naan, and rice. The greatest dessert is a toss up between the banana-nutella crepes in France and the baklava in Turkey. For my favorite snack, I loved the potato and cheese dumplings from Ukraine, served hot with caramelized onions and a dash of sour cream.
Much thanks to our hard working volunteers!! We look forward to participating in the 25th International Festival of Raleigh next year!
