Brittany Patterson
​(Wilmington, NC)








​Brittany Patterson has been dancing since the age of 5 and began choreographing as a teenager. She danced as an apprentice for Demetrius Klein Dance Company in Lake Worth, FL and has presented her own work in New York, NY in conjunction with DKDC. Brittany studied dance at SUNY Purchase for two years before changing career paths. Brittany has a BA in Literature from SUNY Purchase and a Masters in Social Work from Simmons College. She moved to Wilmington in May, 2011 from Boston, MA and has enjoyed reentering the dance scene in Wilmington with performances and choreography in North Carolina Dance Festival tours, Dance-a-Lorus, Wilmington Dance Festival, and SARUS festival since 2012.

​Brittany Patterson draws on her expertise as a clinical social worker to create art that impacts the audience on a deeply emotional and psychological level. Her dances are intended to be experienced in "the gut" not only observed with the eyes. She is greatly inspired by the intricacies of human relationships and often draws on these concepts when choreographing work.
