Break the Cage
learn what limits us and how to break free!
A prison takes away less freedom than a mental cage and while all of us live in our cages, most never break free!
Break the Cage is a multi-sensory inspirational experience designed to help awareness and kickstart healing of limiting beliefs, trauma and bias — without which, our adventure here is limited, insecure and mundane.
How it runs
Three Movements
01
See who broke through
In a powerful audio-visual streak, discover the impact of those who broke through their fear and ego constructs.
02
Visualise who you are
Visualise who you truly are and ought to be everyday.
03
Try it together
Learn and try healthy techniques and rituals together in powerful collective moments. Feel the force inside you to break free and be who you really are, ‘actual-ized.’
Willing? Let’s break the cage.

Nine Cages, Standing Round the Room
They are printed and stood up around the audience for the whole session. Nobody explains them on arrival. By the end, everyone has found the one that is theirs.
01
Mirror Mirror
The version of you that you check with before you do anything.
02
Mind Chatter
The voice that has been talking since you woke up, and is rarely kind.
03
Bias & Prejudice
The judgements made before the person has finished their sentence.
04
Perspectives
The one angle you have been looking from for so long it stopped being an angle.
05
Baggage
A ton of it, carried everywhere, by someone who no longer notices the weight.
06
Breath
The one thing always available to you, and the first thing you forget.
07
Defying Limits
What happens the day somebody does the thing that could not be done.
08
Trauma
The knot that keeps pulling the thread long after the event.
09
Emotions
The wheel you are on, whether or not you agreed to get on it.
