At Artemis Rising Collective, our vision is to create a sacred sanctuary where individuals reconnect with their inner wisdom, restore balance, and awaken holistic healing through movement, nature, ritual, and community. We envision a world where every person feels grounded, supported, and empowered to move through life with intention and ease.
Who we are
Artemis Rising Collective grew from a shared vision: to create spaces where people can genuinely slow down, reconnect, and feel whole again.
Brittany and Meredith are the guiding hearts behind this space, united by a shared belief in the restorative power of movement, nature, creativity, and community. Rooted in their own healing journeys, they’ve experienced how intentional movement, time outdoors, and creative exploration can reconnect us to our bodies, our breath, and what truly matters.
Together, they create retreats that invite adventure and ease—blending fitness, yoga, time in nature, creative play, and meaningful connection. These experiences are designed to help you step out of the noise, move with purpose, explore freely, and return home grounded, energized, and supported—carrying the strength of community with you long after the journey ends.
Our Team
Brittany Patterson
Co-FounderBrittany is a yoga teacher, retreat facilitator, and one of the guiding hearts behind this space.
She began her yoga practice three years ago during a time when her body was asking for deep compassion and care. Living with stage 4 endometriosis and later undergoing a hysterectomy due to advanced adenomyosis profoundly reshaped her relationship with her body. What started as movement became a pathway back to feeling whole, connected, and at home within herself.
Through yoga, Brittany discovered the power of mindful movement, breath, and presence in supporting healing—not only physically, but emotionally and energetically as well. Her practice helped her move without pain, rebuild trust in her body, and reconnect her mind and body in ways she once thought impossible.
Today, Brittany is passionate about creating welcoming, supportive spaces for others—especially those navigating chronic pain, life transitions, or a longing to feel more comfortable and free in their bodies. Her classes and retreats are rooted in accessibility, inclusivity, and joy. Whether someone is brand new to yoga or returning after a long journey, they are welcome exactly as they are.
This work is deeply personal to Brittany, and it is an honor for her to guide experiences that feel nurturing, inviting, and genuinely fun—spaces to breathe deeply, move gently or playfully, connect authentically, and leave with tools and memories that last well beyond the mat.
