Courtney “CiGi” Buckley

Founder, business manager, and creative director.

Courtney founded CG Entertainment in 2015, which naturally formed out of the culmination of working in multimedia production management by day, dance entertainment by night, and event production on the weekends!  Courtney was born and raised in Portland, OR where as a child she began training in dance, piano, guitar, theater, and as a vocalist.

In her late teens she moved to San Jose, Costa Rica where she became involved with event production for the first time! In her early 20’s she spent her time living between Costa Rica and Miami, FL where she began her career as a dance artist in South Beach as a Belly Dancer at Taverna Opa and other restaurants throughout South Florida, and Gogo Dancing at various clubs and events, and working as a freelance Party Motivator for Bar and Bat Mitzvahs, Sweet 16s, and other teen and tween dance parties!

She returned to Portland in her mid 20’s and immediately began performing at various clubs, restaurants, and events throughout Portland and Seattle, WA. Simultaneously she became the business and project manager for her brother’s Multi-Media production company! All the while she searched for Event Entertainment compaines like the ones she would freelance for in Miami but it soon became apparent that such a business didn’t exist in Oregon yet! Reluctantly she decided to form her business in 2015 with the goal of streamlining professional opportunities for dancers and helping promote fair rates for dance artists and it didn’t take long for the business to take off!

What began as more of a booking agency soon grew into a full service dance, circus, and specialty entertainment event production conglomerate with a focus on high-end, couture costuming and customizable live, Vegas-style entertainment! Courtney still looks back over the past 10 years and wonders how it was possible to make a real, live company out of essentially playing dress-up and putting on dance and theater shows like she once did as a child!

As a dance artist, Courtney’s passion has always been for folkloric dance which has driven her study into various cultural dances. During her childhood she studied Ballet, Jazz, Hip Hop, and Hula but at 14 she began studying Egyptian Cabaret style Belly Dance and various Middle Eastern Folkloric dances, which laid the foundation for her first step into the professional dance world! Throughout her life, Courtney has continued to study various forms of dance from Samba to Heels, House to Dancehall and so much more! Shortly after moving back to Portland and starting CG Entertainment, some of the first dance styles she booked out professionally were Tahitian Dancers and she immediately fell in love with the dance form! And while Belly Dance and Tahitian Dance differ greatly, they do rely on some of the same foundational skill sets to perform, so the transition from Belly Dance to Tahitian felt natural from the get go and after two years of studying the dance, Courtney began performing it professionally and to this day it remains her deepest dance passion and the style of dance she performs most often! Courtney’s second dance passion is freestyle club dance or Gogo Dance because she can pull from all of the styles she has studied over the years, because there are no rules and the only goal is to embody the music and bring joy to those who watch! This style of dance has not only informed her choreography but is foundational to her own stage presence and what makes her live productions so special and well received by their audience!
