Lynsey Wyatt is an internationally touring artist, educator, and researcher working at the intersections of circus performance, science, and global regenerative health. With over a decade of experience across 30+ cities worldwide, her work blends embodied practice, trauma-informed pedagogy, and ethical collaboration across disciplines.
Cirqulation, the platform she founded, began as a movement studio and has grown into a hybrid research lab exploring embodiment, neuroethics, open science and collective care through SciArt collaborations, experiential learning, and systems change.
She has trained and performed across 30+ cities worldwide, headlined international circus festivals and collaborated with clinicians, engineers, and neuroscientists on projects funded by the NIH and NSF. Her artistic residencies and grants include ESAC (Belgium), ENC (Canada), and the Fralin Biomedical Research Institute’s neuroSURF Fellowship (USA). She has trained with Chloe Farah (Cirque du Soleil), and co-developed movement-based interventions in partnership with the Neuromotor Clinic at FBRI and Virginia Tech’s Coastal Engineering Lab.
Her current solo work explores the intersection of AI, climate regeneration, and collective coherence — using circus as a metaphor for human limits, otherworldly potential, and interdependence.
Lynsey still leads Cirqulation’s creative and strategic direction empowered by a growing constellation of collaborators: scientists, therapists, youth leaders, and fellow artists. Together, they design experiences that are both rigorous and relational — built to circulate, evolve, and ripple outward.
