Home: Welcome

Smashworks Dance is a New York-based dance company founded and directed by choreographer Ashley McQueen. We dance to advocate for women’s empowerment through performing arts, educational programming, and community outreach. We make dance accessible and inspire audiences to take action through our performances both onstage and in site-specific environments.
We view artistic expression as power—smashing stereotypes and promoting dance as a unifying and confidence-building practice for all.
“Smashworks . . . what a perfect name for these powerful sisters. McQueen’s company is tightly precise and fearless.”
