Acroentertainment combines balance, acrobatics, and juggling with creative body movement. Founded in 2007, what started as a whimsical collaboration project between Kaci Torres and Katie Magee, began to attract attention. Sharing an enthusiasm for street performing and a desire for play and physical activity, Acroentertainment evolved. With their roots in partner yoga, gymnastics, and circus fundamentals, Acroentertainment explores oppositional forces in balance and expressive body position while maintaining a lively, entertaining atmosphere. Acroentertainment is currently based in Raleigh, NC.

We offer party packages, small group sessions, private classes, and custom merchandise. Check out Merchandise and Booking.

Katie Magee

Many years ago, long after Coney was an island, a pirate was born by a couple who loved horses and the law more than birth control. Daughter of Pat and Mickey, Katie was brought into a world of tie-dye and whole wheat—arguably the two most influential forces in her life until she met (wannabe dolphin) Kaci. As it turns out pirates and dolphins are like peanut butter and jelly…crunchy and awesome. Eventually abandoning her pirate ways, Katie decided to become a real person and pursue a career as a street performer. With the support of her beau, a smooth talking circus descendant turned computer software poster-child, Katie has co-founded Acro Entertainment and since joined the board of directors for Streetlight Productions in Raleigh.

Kaci Torres

One cold summer day in the corn fields of Indiana, Kaci escaped from the wretched womb of señorita Belinda Torres. However, her matricidal efforts were futile and Kaci endured 17 years of maternal dictatorship. Growing up on the Florida Coast, Kaci spent the majority of her childhood training to be a dolphin. During the early part of her youth she was reunited with vagrant artist and quasi father, Ron Torres, who inspired her to become a painter herself. At the ripe old age of 18 she abandoned the visual arts to pursue a degree in economics at North Carolina State University, where she met two very important people: a poetry engineer who encouraged her to return to the arts; and the infamous Katie Magee who tutored her in the ways of juggling, balance, and awesomeness. After many years of friendship and flipping, Kaci and Katie decided to put their bachelor’s degrees to real use; hence, the invention of “acro-entertainment.” For the past year, the two have been street performing under the pseudonyms “Kaci” and “Katie.”
