Last year, a small group of professional fitness trainers began offering free fitness classes in San Jacinto Plaza. With the initial success and, with the support of the Downtown Management District (DMD), the fitness classes are back for 2018.

“Downtown El Paso should always be the place to find community activity, and the DMD is happy to support health-minded El Pasoans in their effort to offer free fitness classes,” said DMD Executive Director, Joe Gudenrath.

Downtown El Paso Fitness offers these free fitness classes in San Jacinto Plaza, and Cleveland Square Park, all in the Las Plazas Arts District, every Saturday (weather permitting) from 7:30am to 9am until September 1^st, 2018.

The workouts are given by certified trainers in areas such as, calisthenics or yoga but we encourage the public to visit the Downtown El Paso Fitness Facebook Page for weekly updates on class instruction styles and instructors.

The Downtown Management District has invited a small collection of talented Downtown El Paso (DTEP) restaurants and bars to create AUTHENTICO menu items only available for a limited time this fall season.

In the spirit of community we invite the public to visit each business and try their unique AUTHENTICO menu items. Individually they’re tasty, but ordered in succession as part of a restaurant crawl, they’re a delicious four course meal!

The menu items will only be available starting October 6, 2016 and ending November 11, 2016!

In addition, you can register at DowntownElPaso.com for a chance to WIN an EAT Authentico Restaurant Crawl Dinner, where you and a guest will hop from restaurant to restaurant enjoying each of the four courses, plus the starter drink on November 11, 2016!

Last day to register is Thursday, November 3, 2016. Five winners will be selected.
