In 2006, she competed at the first World Junior Wushu Championships (WJWC) in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, and won the bronze medal in taijijian.

Due to her high placement at the world championships from the previous year, she was also able to compete in the 2008 Beijing Wushu Tournament where she placed sixth in the women's taijiquan combined event.

[18] In her first event of taijiquan, Lindswell tied Japan's Ai Myaoka with a score of 9.80, but was declared the winner due to tie-breaking procedures regarding B-score.

Shortly after, she then competed in the 2009 SEA Games in Vientiane, Laos, and won the silver medal in the taijiquan and taijijian combined event under Chai Fong Ying.

In 2010 at the first rendition of the World Combat Games in Beijing, China, she won the gold medal in the taijiquan and taijijian combined event.

During the first round of competition which consisted of taijijian, Lindswell was in a three-way tie for first with Malaysia's Chai Fong Ying and Japan's Ai Miyaoka whom all scored 9.67.

[21] Lindswell's next major appearance was at the 2013 World Games in Cali, Colombia, and won the gold medal in the taijiquan and taijijian combined event.

In women's taijiquan at the 2014 Asian Games in Incheon, South Korea, Lindswell steadily held her second-place position during both rounds and thus was able to win the silver medal slightly above Japan's Ai Uchida and under China's Yu Mengmeng.

In women's taijiquan at the 2018 Asian Games in Jakarta, Indonesia, Lindswell established her dominance over the competition and won the gold medal by consistently scoring 9.75 in both of her events.
