Review №1

I was actually a student of Debbie’s when she was Top Hats and TuTus. I was about 7 when I joined her “dance company.”My mom was yelled at over and over again when Debbie was having a bad day. As a single parent putting her child through dance school on her own; she didn’t deserve that.PARENTS THIS IS A WARNING: Debbie and her daughter are absolute bullies. She allowed her daughter to compete in younger divisions during dance competitions in an effort to place higher. She couldn’t even dance against kids her own age.She will tell your kids to change their bodies. She did it to me and I ended up struggling with a massive eating disorder. After dancing with her for over 10 years I finally couldn’t take it anymore and begged my mom to pull me out.She lies about everything. Your tuition money will be spent on poor quality choreo and overpriced costumes. She will charge you far more than a costume costs and pocket it.This place isn’t bad because of The ALDC. It’s bad because Debbie made it that way. Be careful.

She doesnt even know the proper terminology! She got Abby Lee Miller to help her and Abby had her fill out three checks for her landlords rent wand she cancelled them as soon as abby left and she lies and is horrible.

Review №11

I had her as my dancer for about a year and I still cant even do a proper back walkover Mrs.Debbie was so rude and she would always curse at my mom because my mom would try to tell my dance teacher i was not learning any techniques. Every time we went to competitions we would get 10th place all the time! My mom was very upset and had so many fights with Debbie the mats were so ugly and stick when i did handstands and the tape was always bothering me and it was so gross how we had to touch a medal rusty tube that you use for plumbing! Please dont take your child there because they might get even more uncomfortable as i was, The kids will see the fights with the mothers and the dance teachers. Im begging you DONT GO!

Do not take your children here. I am warning you! Ms. Debbie the owner is con woman and very greedy, doesnt know a thing about dancing. Also shes always cursing when parents are saying the kids should work more on technique, especially in front of 3 year olds. I personally think that this is the worst and I mean worst studio Ive ever been to! Just horrible!!

Debby has no idea what she is doing. If you want a real dance education go anywhere else! Hell, a dog could teach you better dance techniques. Conniving, rude and dishonest woman. Dont waste your time here.

Review №25

Please do not take your children here. From a business perspective, Abby has tried it all to help transform the studio. This owner ultimately lacked professionalism and showed nothing but greed, narcissism, and lack of respect for the children who just wanted a quality dance education and the parents who have paid for nothing.

Review №32

Thieves and not professionals take money for nothing.They making freakin Christmas concert they just take the money for tickets for costume and they didnt let my kids show up even once. On the end of program all kids sing one song together thats where was my kid. But i sign her up to ballet not to choir. And $30 for costume just to stay behind the curtain all the time.The worst place ever!!! People please be careful with this!!!!!!

Ive danced at ShowBiz since I was about 5 til I was 18 and moved to college! It was an amazing experience and Debbie loves what she does. The studio is very close like a family and its such a fun environment from just taking classes to competeing every month! I highly reccomend.
