Tyson has always had an interest in dance.  As a child, Tyson would create routines to what was on the radio and perform them in his drive way or for family gatherings.  In high school he was introduced to the world of color guard which led him to take a ballet class.  It was at this time he realized dance was more than a hobby; it was a passion.

In college, Tyson was on the cheerleading team and took dance courses.  He was even offered an internship with a professional modern dance company, which he turned down to focus on other studies.  After Tyson completed his undergraduate degree in political science, he began to focus more on his career in the performing arts.
