Bridgette Wilson was born and raised in Trinidad and Tobago. From an early age, she trained and danced with the Caribbean School of Dancing and was invited to join the Metamorphosis Dance Company in 2000. In 2002 and 2004, as a member of Metamorphosis, Bridgette toured the UK, dancing at Trafalgar Square in London and theatres located in Tewksbury, Liverpool, Manchester and Gloucester. Mainly trained in ballet and modern, Bridgette has earned her Associate Certificate in Modern Theatre from the Imperial Society of Teachers of Dancing and has also been successful in a number of ballet exams taken by the Royal Academy of Dancing.
In 2005, she packed her bags for Canada to study at York University and is now in her final semester of completing her Bachelor of Fine Arts in Dance with Honors. In Canada, she was a senior member of the York Dance Ensemble, the professional performing dance company at York University made up of the dance program's most promising third and fourth year dancers. She officially gave up her membership with the company in February 2009, when the oppourtunity to choreograph with the Metamorphosis Dance Company came about.
Upon graduation, Bridgette plans to continue pursuing her career as a choreographer, both locally and abroad. She has a desire to return to school in the future to obtain other dance related degrees, but her current focus is on teaching, choreography, and eventually running a dance company dually based in Trinidad and Toronto.
