She was chosen as an apprentice member of "Evolution Dance Company", directed by Mark Meisner, and was a featured dancer in "Soul Escape Dance Company", directed by Justin Giles. She was also named a "Hall of Fame" Dancer for Company Dance Convention.

After graduating from High School, Tyne relocated to L.A. to pursue a professional career in dance. In her first year there, she was selected as a dancer for the national "High School Musical Concert Tour" as well as for the South American tour. She was a dancer in the movies, High School Musical 2 (2007), The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (2008) with Brad Pitt and Step Brothers (2008) with Will Ferrell.
