I’m so happy I found this place.
Dance and fitness classes help me to discipline myself and help me to go through rough times in my life.
I definitely recommend every teacher. They are different and unique.
Ana and Robert make me sweat all the time.😂
Good mood guaranteed!

Joining SMASH Dance Fitness has been one of the most empowering decisions I've ever made. From the moment I walked through the doors, I was greeted with warmth, professionalism, and a genuine sense of belonging. The instructors and owner go above and beyond to make every single person—regardless of shape, size, or skill level—feel welcomed, celebrated, and capable.
I’ll be honest- I’m not the best dancer but that has never mattered here. SMASH isn’t just about perfect choreography; it’s about confidence, joy, and community. I’ve never felt more comfortable in my own skin than I do when I’m at SMASH. The energy is infectious, the encouragement is constant, and the environment is truly judgment-free.
Since joining, I’ve developed a self-confidence I didn’t know I had. It’s motivated me to continue my health journey; not just physically, but mentally and emotionally.
If you’re looking for a place that lifts you up, pushes you forward, and reminds you that you’re worthy just as you are—this is it. SMASH Dance Fitness is more than a studio. It’s a movement. It’s a family. And I’m so grateful to be part of it.

Amongst the many ways SMASH impacts the community, I have learned about their food distribution program. This is one way SMASH provides welcoming environment meeting the needs of the community. The staff was very personable and helpful with the food and even helped me out to my car. Thank you SMASH for making a difference in our community through this service.

I had the pleasure of going to the hip-hop cardio class and the VSF Naughty List event. I had such a great time! This studio is full of people who love to dance! It is a judgment free place that has vibrant music and welcoming faces. For someone my age, who loves to dance, it’s great to have somewhere to go where you can cut loose. I truly enjoyed the studio decor and warm atmosphere. What a great place to dance, burn some calories, and meet some genuinely great people!

My kids (boy-girl twins- 5 years old) have been in the tiny hip hop class for a year, they love the class. They had so much fun performing at the showcase and I'm so happy to see their confidence grow, they were not shy being in front of hundreds of people on a big stage. The dance instructors are amazing with kids, they know how to keep them focused and on task while having fun. They also have a lot of boys in the claases which is great!! I'm so happy we found SMASH!!

My daughter is 10 & has been a part of Smash for the last 4 years & it has been such a blessing in her life! It has built up her confidence, allowing her to be comfortable in dancing & not being afraid of being silly & having fun! She is homeschooled so it has allowed her to have a positive & safe place to make friends & she has made a bunch! She is confident enough to be in plays in front of huge crowds of people, do dances etc! She was such a shy kid at first, so to see such a transformation is amazing! She is ready for every single class with a smile on her face! Lisa & Yessika are amazing women with beautiful hearts! They both care about their communities & the people in it! They raise awareness for many different organizations as well as offer their services for free to many of them! I am very thankful to say that I am a part of the Smash family!!! ~AE

I started coming to Smash 9 years ago after driving by it a million times on my way home. It was the best decision I ever made. I have come consistently to the adult fitness classes this entire time, even despite a couple of surgeries, the occasional injury (my fault) and the pandemic. Lol. But I’ve made lifelong friendships, lost weight , built muscle, and created healthy habits that are going to take me throughout my whole life. There is a good variety of classes for everyone from beginner to experienced. And whether you come for years or it’s your first visit, you are made to feel at home and part of a family. Which is something a big box fitness center can’t do. I also love how they give back to the community and provide amazing opportunities for kids. I encourage anyone to give it a try!

My kids went to SMASH when SMASH was here in Vegas, and Lisa the owner always went out of her way for the kids and the parents. She has always gone above and beyond to not only teach the kids, but to inspire them in life! Now that she's in San Antonio, my good friends are taking their kids to SMASH, and they're telling me all the same, positive stories! Lisa and her staff are amazing at what they do!

RUN AWAY!!! The Positive: young are knowledgeable, capable and nice. The Negatives: the owner portrays/pushes/markets the school AND for profit events as if only meant for charity. Website claims amazing work but the only confessed charities were Zoom dance classes and food bank donations. Students are lobbied to work 2 major pay events, 2 smaller pay events, "leadership tng" as free assistant teachers; "internships" working the front office; and as many marketing events as can be booked. Members of the Kosmic dance team (an extra cost) are MANDATED to work 9 hrs on the day of the semi-annual events with 2 shows. Ticket holders are held out in line for 1 hr while VIP ticket buyers get to sit first. Kid caused drama is as expected but turnover of students is large as especially Kosmic members grow weary. Questioning of policies elicits swift, heavy and choreographed indignation.

Best studio in San Antonio! Really love all the programs they offer. They also run an amazing Non-Profit called Project Smash. Love working with them on their after school programs, collaborating with providing a street dance competition called Vibe Night & The ColoZeum. Literally the best place to work, take classes and collaborate.

I stumbled upon Smash due to some free dance passes the owner gave me when I met her. Little did I know how much going to Smash would change my life. The community and the culture is so welcoming. They do so much for the community by providing scholarships, food banks, and fundraising. Never have I once felt unwelcomed. My kids love the classes too! They've become so confident.

I got invited by a friend a few months ago and have been enjoying the classes offered ever since. I’ve run into the owner a time or two and can certainly say nothing but kind things about them. It helps to feel confident in a place knowing that the experience is consistent at all levels.
Each instructor has their unique style but one thing thats the same if the warm fun way they all teach with. Wether every spot is filled or its a handful of people they give it their all and you can’t help but be encouraged by each ones dedication to what they do and to you the individual.
Smash Dance also offers classes Ive never thought I would try and ended up loving like the Saturday Bollywood Dance class! I hope they continue to expand on whats offered because its made this wobbly woman here find getting fit incredibly fun!
Keep it up y’all! I’ll be right back at it next week and every week after! (Even if i am a bit winded lol 😀)

I love all the instructors they're so talented and personable and also very helpful
Every day is a new learning experience!
I enjoy being challenged With the choreography. But at the same time your able to go at your own pace. I enjoy all the women and men of different backgrounds just coming to dance and let it all out! But most of all I enjoy the opportunity to give back to the community.

I had been chatting with Lisa through the band app to deal with the issue of refunding my daughter’s costume money which the studio decided the day before the recital we were not to use and forced to create a homemade costume. This was just three days after being told we had to buy jazz shoes for the show because they didn’t arrive in time. Instead of dealing with the issue, she decided to delete me from the app and told me to call. Presumably so I would have no access to any solid proof of the refund statements. It’s extremely disappointing how the children’s recital was ran and how I’m now left to bite the cost of this costume. If you only had a few days to return them, then you should’ve contacted ALL parents regarding the process. It’s unfortunate that I have to “not recommend” your studio online since this could’ve most likely been resolved via the app. I’ve never left a bad review online before, so I don’t take this lightly. The studio claims they are not as strict as other dance studios, so we should take that into consideration with the costume issue. If that were the case, costumes shouldn’t have even been involved. It seems you want the best of both worlds, then don’t want blame for the costume fiasco. You certainly should be mature enough to resolve the issue with me directly.
