In his freshman year of college at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro, he began attending ballet classes at a community theatre.

After graduating from college, Rigsby danced for multiple night clubs and gay bars; he also worked for Katy Perry, Pitbull, and Saturday Night Live.
He danced backup for Nicki Minaj during the 2011 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show.
