✨ WELCOME BACK, TYLER! ✨

We’re excited to welcome Tyler Jacobson back to the judging panel for the Aerial Arts Society’s 3rd Annual Pacific Southwest Regional in Downey, California, at the Downey Theatre!

Tyler Jacobson started circus nearly by accident when he was enrolled in the Great Y Circus as an after-school program in 2006. From an initial interest in handbalancing and contortion, Tyler quickly expanded his skillset to include lyra, silks, and hula hoop while maintaining a vigorous acrobatic–academic balance, culminating in a master’s degree in Cultural Studies.

Tyler had an auspicious start to his professional career in 2017 with the national tour of Pippin as well as establishing himself as a fan-favorite monster at Queen Mary’s Dark Harbor. More recently, he has been a regular member of Cirque Dreams Holidaze as well as multiple national tours with Cirque Us, including One Man’s Trash and Cirque Us Stories. Tyler is also an accomplished teacher, leading workshops across the country as well as serving as head coach for Circus Smirkus camp in 2024, as well as teaching as an adjunct professor of Kinesiology at University of Redlands.

We’re honored to have Tyler’s experience, artistry, and perspective returning to our judging panel. Welcome back, Tyler! 🎪✨

WELCOME BACK SHARYN! Sharyn Scott

Sharyn was part of our very first judging panels for SoCal’s PACIFIC SOUTH WEST REGIONALS, and we are so honored to have her back, joining us for this year’s competition in Downey, CA on Sunday, Oct. 25th✨

Sharyn is an accomplished aerialist, circus performer, and coach who hails from the small town of Erial, NJ (pronounced “aerial”). It makes sense that she would later live up to her hometown namesake and become an aerialist.

As a kid, she was a competitive cheerleader who loved to flip and tumble. It wasn’t until she found aerial that she discovered how much she was missing that feeling of connection to her body that cheer had brought her.

Through aerial and pole dance, Sharyn fell in love with circus arts and moved to Los Angeles in 2014 to pursue her dreams of performing. Her curiosity and dedication to movement led her beyond aerial, picking up new disciplines like fire dancing, roller skating, and mermaiding. She enjoys the challenge of learning something new and finding ways to connect them to her existing practices.

Sharyn has studied human movement extensively, earning certifications from NASM, NESTA, and a 200hr YTT. She has been a passionate coach since 2011 and has taught her signature aerial chains workshops across the US.

She finds immense joy in working with her students to step into their own creative journey and supporting them in reaching their goals.

She is honored and excited to be back on the panel of judges this year! ✨

Please join us in welcoming Sharyn back to the Pacific South West Regionals judging panel! 🖤✨
