Brief Explanation

“Break the Routine” is a disturbingly captivating and physically intense dance routine backed by a haunting original composition by Ellie Goulding designed to raise awareness of domestic abuse. We executed a live version of the dance at Regent’s Place in London, a busy business district. The beautiful but difficult to watch choreography was seen by hundreds of passing workers as the Ellie Goulding track played. We also filmed and uploaded to social media. Victim Support and NCDV (the two charities involved) gave on the ground support to people needing advice about dealing with domestic abuse. A Facebook Live post of the Live element of the dance received almost 3,000 views and reached more than 7,000 people.
