Wyatt Meriwether
Wyatt is a strongman performer and an active competitor in both Strongman Corporation and US Strongman federations. Wyatt is also a meet promoter within Strongman Corporation and as a competitor has qualified for USS Nationals in 2022, 2024, and 2025. Wyatt has always been captivated by virtuosic strength within the performing arts which inevitably led him from dance to focusing on Strongman as a performing discipline. Before training and performing as a Strongman Wyatt trained in ballet, becoming proficient in a variety of technical methodologies (e.g. Cecchetti, Balanchine, Vaganova, etc.). Wyatt also has an extensive education and proficiency in modern and contemporary, received training in Flamenco, tap, jazz, hip hop, and Bharatanatyam dance, and holds a BA in Dance from the University of Kansas. His most notable roles include the Conquistador in the University Dance Company’s production of José Limón’s La Malinche, featuring choreographer Sarah Stackhouse; as a corps dancer in a collaborative dance project between 940 Dance Company and choreographer Joan Stone; and as a corps dancer in Tree of Life, a large-scale multimedia composition mixing theatre, dance, video, spoken word, a wind ensemble, and composed by the Turtle Island Quartet. In his free time, he enjoys researching historical vaudevillian and circus strongmen and strongwomen of the 19th and 20th centuries.
