Good news for our swim families: booking a private swim lesson no longer means waiting on a callback. You can now schedule it yourself: a recurring weekly slot with your favorite instructor, or a single one-time lesson to fit around a busy week. Book as far out as your instructor has openings on the calendar, up to 12 weeks ahead.
Once you’re in, you can see your instructor’s availability in real time, compare it against your own schedule, and lock in the time that works best. The whole thing takes just a few taps.
How to Log In and Book
Where you start depends on where you stand with the Club. Members can log in through the mobile DAC app, the MindBody app, or the MindBody Portal at DowntownAC.com and book straight from there. Recurring guests use the mobile MindBody app or the MindBody Portal at DowntownAC.com the same way. If you’re new to lessons, set up your account through the MindBody Portal at DowntownAC.com first, and you’re ready to book from that point on.
One note for group programs: Aqua Babies, Pre-Competition, DAC Swim Team, and Pre-Masters still register through aquatics@downtownac.com. Those programs run on a different schedule than private lessons, so we’re keeping registration with our aquatics team for now.
Cancellation Policy
Cancel at least 24 hours before your lesson and you’ll receive a lesson credit. Cancel late or miss your lesson, and no refund will be issued.
In order of preference: cancel online or in the app (fastest): MindBody Portal, MindBody App, or DAC App (members only). Or, you can call the Welcome Desk at 541-484-4011 ext. 216, anytime, any day.
Questions about booking or the new cancellation policy are always welcome. Reach out to Leah Gaskins, our Aquatic + Youth Program Coordinator, at aquatics@downtownac.com or 541-484-4011 ext. 237.

The Downtown Athletic Club (DAC) has been Eugene’s locally owned, family-operated health club for over 40 years. Under one roof you’ll find a full Gymnasium, Cardio + Strength Floor, Group Exercise classes, a Lap Pool, warm-water therapy pool, Downtown Pilates Studio, The ZONE training program, Newberry Preschool, KidStop Daycare, and Zest Kitchen + Bar on our third floor. Locally owned means we get to build a club around the community we’ve built, and continue to build.
Ready to experience it for yourself? Enjoy a complimentary guest pass and come see why so many Eugene families call the DAC home. We’re located at 999 Willamette St, Eugene, OR 97401. Give us a call at 541-484-4011 anytime.
