Beyond the Bash

Meet our founders — Emily Bolyea and Mason Micevski — the powerhouse best friends behind The Hammer Rage Room. Proud Hamiltonians, lifelong creatives, and certified Reiki practitioners, these two are known for chasing big adventures and creating unforgettable experiences. From hot air balloon rides and zip lining to music festivals and globe-trotting escapades, Emily and Mason bring that same fearless energy and passion for fun to everything they do — especially here.

After a legendary rage room birthday trip nearly a decade ago, they knew one day they'd open their own. Fast-forward to now, they’ve turned that dream into reality — right in the heart of the historic King Street International Village at 185 King St. E. They’re thrilled to add some smash therapy (and soul-soothing vibes) to one of Hamilton’s most vibrant and evolving neighborhoods.

But this isn’t just about breaking stuff (even though that part rules). The Hammer Rage Room is all about balance: the adrenaline-pumping release of destruction, paired with the calming, restorative power of Reiki. Smash your stress, then recharge your spirit — all in one visit.

As long-time entertainers and founders of Emerson Arts, Emily and Mason know how to put on a show — and now they’re putting that creativity to work in a whole new way. The result? A space that’s fun, therapeutic, and totally unforgettable.

We're also big on smashing responsibly. We partner with local businesses to repurpose unsaleable, landfill-bound items — and every smashable donation earns a 4Ocean bracelet, helping pull a pound of trash from our oceans.

Whether you’re booking a wild birthday bash, a team-building event, or just need to let it all out, The Hammer Rage Room is your new favourite way to break free — open seven days a week.

Smash hard. Heal deeper. Leave lighter.

What Is A Rage Room

A rage room is your ultimate stress smash zone—gear up, grab a bat, and wreck stuff like old TVs, glass, and furniture in a safe, judgment-free space. It’s loud, messy, and insanely satisfying. Whether you're blowing off steam, dealing with drama, or just want to break something (legally), it’s the ultimate way to let go. Pair it with a calming Reiki session, and you've got the perfect chaos-to-calm combo.

What Is Reiki

Reiki is a gentle, energy-based healing practice that helps you relax, reset, and realign—mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. Using light touch or hands just above the body, a certified Reiki practitioner channels calming energy to help clear blockages, balance your chakras, and support your body’s natural healing process.

It’s like a deep breath for your soul—no pressure, no talking, just peaceful vibes. Whether you're feeling stressed, burnt out, or just need a reset, Reiki is your go-to for calm, clarity, and inner balance.

Safety First!

Generally speaking, a Refund Policy often addresses these types of issues: the timeframe for asking for a refund; will the refund be full or partial; under which conditions will the customer receive a refund; and much, much more.

Eco Responsibility

Smash responsibly.
We’re just as committed to the planet as we are to breaking stuff. That’s why we only smash items destined for landfill and recycle everything we possibly can.

When you donate your smashables, we’ll say thanks with a 4ocean bracelet—each one helps remove a pound of trash from our oceans. Destruction meets sustainability.

Health Benefits

Think of it as therapy with sweat—not a full fitness routine, but a legit way to move your body and feel better doing it. Now, add Reiki!! This integrated approach aims to provide both immediate stress relief and longer-term emotional balance. While there's limited research on this specific combination, the concept aligns with holistic wellness practices that address both the physical and emotional aspects of stress.
