How Active Recovery Keeps You Moving Through a Eugene Fall

Active recovery keeps you moving through a Eugene fall by giving your body time to absorb the work you've already done. A slower day of gentle movement, warmth, and stretching is when strength settles in, and it's what lets you come back to Monday's Cycle Beats or a...

Holiday party planning usually starts around now, and with one question: where? 🤔

The DAC Event Center sits inside 100,000 square feet of renovated downtown Eugene buildings, including the 1910 Ax Billy Department Store, which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It is a setting your team will remember, right in the middle of downtown.

Team dinners, year-end celebrations, client appreciation nights: if you are starting to look at end of the year dates, now is a good time to ask. 🍾

Inquire about your date: downtownac.com/private-events/

Give your lunch hour a different pace. 🌟

GYROKINESIS® with Marilyn is new on the schedule this fall: a breath-led hour of flowing, circular movement on a mat and chair. Instead of isolating one muscle group, it moves through the whole body, with a focus on range of motion, posture, and a clear head.

No experience needed. Mats and chairs are provided, and socks are recommended for the wood floor.

Wednesdays | 12:15pm - 1:15pm | Studio 1

Find the full schedule in the DAC app or at the link in our bio. See you in the studio.

This First Friday ArtWalk, get a first look at Eugene Ballet`s 2026-27 season opener, a steampunk-inspired Taming of the Shrew with Orchestra Next, right here in the DAC Lobby. ⚙️

Picture Shakespeare`s most combative couple in goggles and brass. Choreographer Toni Pimble and her creative team built their world from da Vinci-inspired contraptions, whimsical sets, and a score by Louise Farrenc, the 19th-century French composer.

🎶 First Friday ArtWalk | Friday, 10/2 | 5pm - 7pm
✨ Free and open to the public. Beer, wine, and soda are available for purchase.

🎨 Make the DAC a stop on your ArtWalk loop, then see the full production at the Hult Center on 10/30 and 11/1.

Purchase your tickets for any of Eugene Ballet`s productions at eugeneballet.org 🎟️
