Cole tried various forms of dance, spending the majority of the time on Ballet, until he was fourteen.

His students also won top overall student and were regular finalists and first place earners in multiple divisions. Professionally he earned his Diploma of Dance in American Smooth and Rhythm, became a Certified Dance Director, and Manager of a studio. After leaving the company, he ventured into the yoga and massage side of the world for a few years, and balanced both businesses and opened a holistic wellness center in Columbus, GA, that offered Ballroom Dance, Yoga, Aerial Silks, Pole Fitness, and more. After the closing of the studio during Covid, despite the beautiful three years it was open, Cole moved to Los Angeles for a new beginning and fell in love with the city that he now considers his home. After working independently in Los Angeles, Cole found YCDStudio in 2024, where he discovered his all-time idol of dance, Anna Trebunskaya, owned a studio. He was humbled, honored, and elated when Anna and Irina brought him on the team, and has found a wonderful fit in YCD.
