Highlights
Outing Highlights
Bring Your Own — or Pick From the Ala‑Smash Menu
Participants can bring personal smashables to destroy or select items on site from an Ala‑Smash Menu, giving you control over what gets broken and how you take out steam.
Protective Gear and Smash Weapons Provided
The session includes protective gear, a selection of smash weapons and access to the Break Room so you can focus on the act of breaking things without handling the logistics of tools or space.
A Direct Way to Relieve Stress
Marketed as a stress‑relief outlet, the session is geared toward catharsis: controlled destruction as an alternative to letting anger linger.

What the Smash Session Feels Like
The format is deliberate and stripped down: you arrive prepared with chosen smashables or buy from the menu, don provided protective gear, choose a weapon, and step into the Break Room to expend energy breaking glasswares, ceramics and similar items—an intense, short burst of physical release run by Lumberjax staff in St. Joseph.

Details to review before reserving
Sessions are short and focused; the operator recommends small groups (roughly 1–4 people) so plan accordingly and book for the right group size.
BYO smashables are welcome if clean and non‑offensive (no dirty/grimy items, no tube TVs or old computer monitors, no photos of people). Bring extra cash if you plan to purchase items from the Ala‑Smash Menu.
Closed‑toe shoes that can step on glass are mandatory; long pants are required and long sleeves are highly recommended—avoid yoga pants, high‑waters or pants with holes.
Do not attend while under the influence of any substance; all items will be inspected before use and staff provide protective gear and smash weapons to manage risk.
