The Zreliak Artistic Performing Productions Company, otherwise known as ZAPP, is a one of the kind…read moredance company and is the brain child of Cindy Zreliak, also assisted by Cheryl Lemmer. They've started a revolution of a dance company inspiring Eugene's finest to have a taste of the performing arts. Without a doubt they are the class of the city, with a variety of dances that spanning a multitude of genres ranging from hip hop to swing to jazz. No local area dance troupe compares to Zapp, as they have a unique distinction of being in a class to themselves. Aside from performing locally in Eugene, they're also world famous touring cities across the United States and Europe. I've had the pleasure of attending a few of their shows in Eugene and came away impressed practically every time. The WOW factor is almost immediate and they continue to inspire audiences everywhere. They cater to many young folks and I encourage those who are interested to make the leap to audition and check this group out. If not, join me in the crowd where seats just might be limited.

A friend and I tried out a Beginner Pole class a couple weeks ago by virtue of a Groupon deal. I'm…read moreglad I found it because, otherwise, I wouldn't have know this studio existed, with it's unassuming location in downtown Springfield. Aine, the owner and our instructor for this first class, is great. She is super friendly, welcoming, provides great instruction and simple steps to learn. Aine is also amazingly talented, making all the moves look so fluid and easy, which is inspiring to see as I flailed around the pole! I consider myself fit, working out 5-6 days a week, but that doesn't prepare you for pole. It is a whole new test of strength, flexibility and coordination (and I'm pretty lacking in the last two of that list). I look forward to trying more classes soon--Polemic recently adding a twerking class! Ha, can't wait for that!

I had never been to Eugene and was overwhelmed. When I was 9 years old a teacher read the Raven to…read moremy class and I was addicted to poetry like a fiend. As a teenager I ended up living with a person going to ballet school. I became a huge fan of dance and ballet. When I stumbled on this I just had to try to see it. Another friend felt the same but we both have mobility issues so going to new places is daunting since a lot of venues are supposed to offer ADA in all price points but usually it is marked higher or what the have listed is not actually ADA. It's A LOT to deal with every time you want to go anywhere to anything.. I reached out to the venue and they referred me to the ballet company. I thought, ugh... they can't help but ok... But they did and fast. Talk about making us feel welcome and seen. And WHAT A PERFORMANCE! Ballet Fantastique set ballet pieces to Steampunk styled music performed with cello, piano, and an accordion. A spoken word actor recited parts from five different Edgar Allen Poe pieces (some would argue his best): Masque of the Red Death (1842), The Raven (1845), Fall of the House of Usher (1839),Annabel Lee (1849) and Cask of Amontillado (1846). There were touches of cirque with an aerialist and stilt walker. The sets, lighting, and aesthetic were incredible. This ballet was a treasure trove. They had some gorgeous masks for sale at amazing prices and I could not resist getting a gorgeous production poster signed by the whole cast for $5. After attending this I definitely plan to make it a point to attend another performance of theirs.
