Bryaunna "Bree" Kostelnik

Performer

With a small town upbringing in southern Oregon, Bree’s journey in the arts has expanded across the globe, working with numerous choreographers including Victor Quijada, Jaci Royal, Wes Veldink, Franco Nieto, and Samuel Hobbs, performing and training in Norway, Austria, and Germany, and cities across the US, including Chicago, New York, Las Vegas, and Seattle.

In June of 2021, Bree became the first woman to graduate from the Oregon State University’s Architectural Engineering program. Post-graduation, she transitioned back into the Pacific Northwest dance community, working with push/FOLD and Open Space Company, supplementing her training with interdisciplinary programs including b12 in Berlin and Portland City Boxing. As an independent artist, Bree’s recent work includes teaching at studios and colleges across Oregon, hosting weekly creation labs, collaboration workshops, and movement intensives. Bree also curates a multimedia collaborative project between 25 artists within the Willamette Valley called COLLISIONS.
