Ballroom Dance Studio East Moriches
Ballroom Factory Dance Studio has been serving Suffolk County with personalized dance instruction that gets results. Our professional instructors don’t just teach steps—we understand what it takes to make you feel confident and comfortable on any dance floor.
We’ve helped countless couples create unforgettable wedding moments and individuals discover the joy of dance in a truly supportive environment.

What sets us apart is simple: we actually listen to what you want to achieve and create a plan to get you there, whether that’s mastering the Waltz for your wedding or learning Salsa for pure enjoyment.
Private Dance Instruction Process
We start with understanding your goals. Wedding dance? Social dancing? Fitness? We design your lessons around what you actually want to achieve, not what we think you should learn.
Your first lesson focuses on the fundamentals that matter most for your situation. We’ll assess your natural rhythm and movement style, then build from there with techniques that work for your body and comfort level.
Each session builds on the last, with plenty of practice time and personalized feedback. You’ll master one element before moving to the next, ensuring you feel confident with each new skill. We also provide flexible scheduling because we know life gets busy, and your dance lessons shouldn’t add stress to your schedule.

Wedding Dance Choreography East Moriches
Our dance classes in East Moriches include private lessons tailored to your specific needs, group classes for social dancing, and specialized wedding dance choreography that reflects your unique style as a couple.
For Suffolk County couples, we create custom first dances that tell your love story. No cookie-cutter routines—we work with your favorite song and design movements that feel natural for both partners, regardless of experience level.
We also offer ongoing group dance classes for those who want to continue learning after their wedding or special event. From elegant Waltz and passionate Tango to energetic Salsa and playful Cha-Cha, you’ll find styles that match your personality and keep you coming back for more.
How many lessons do we need for our wedding dance?
Most couples need 4-6 private lessons to feel confident with their first dance, but it really depends on your comfort level and the complexity you want. If you’re choosing a simple, romantic slow dance, you might feel ready in 3-4 lessons.
For more elaborate choreography or if you’re both complete beginners, 6-8 lessons gives you time to really master the moves and feel natural together. We’ll assess your progress after the first lesson and give you a realistic timeline based on your goals and the song you’ve chosen.
The key is starting early enough that you’re not stressed about it. We recommend beginning lessons 2-3 months before your wedding so you have time to practice and make adjustments without pressure.
Do you offer group dance classes or just private lessons?
We offer both private dance instruction and group dance classes in East Moriches, and each serves different needs. Private lessons give you complete personalized attention and let us customize everything to your specific goals, timeline, and learning style.
Group classes are perfect for ongoing learning, meeting other dancers, and practicing in a social setting. They’re also more budget-friendly if you want to continue dancing after mastering your wedding dance or if you’re learning for pure enjoyment rather than a specific event.
Many of our students start with private lessons to build confidence and fundamentals, then join group classes to keep improving and stay connected with our dance community. We’ll help you decide what combination works best for your situation and goals.
What dance styles do you teach at your studio?
We specialize in ballroom and Latin dance styles that work well for weddings, social events, and pure enjoyment. Our most popular styles include Waltz, Tango, Foxtrot, Rumba, Salsa, and Cha-Cha, plus we can work with contemporary and country styles for wedding dances.
For wedding couples, we often recommend Waltz for classic elegance, Rumba for romance, or Salsa if you want something with more energy. But we always work with your music choice first and design the dance around what feels right for you as a couple.
If you’re learning for social dancing, we’ll help you choose styles that match the events you attend most often. Salsa and Swing are great for parties, while Waltz and Foxtrot work well for more formal occasions. We can also teach multiple styles so you’re prepared for any situation.
How flexible is your scheduling for busy professionals?
Very flexible. We understand that Suffolk County professionals have demanding schedules, so we offer evening and weekend appointments to work around your commitments. We can also adjust lesson times if something urgent comes up at work.
For wedding couples with tight timelines, we can schedule intensive sessions or back-to-back lessons when needed. We’ve worked with couples who could only meet on Sunday mornings or late weekday evenings, and we make it work.
The key is communicating your constraints upfront so we can plan accordingly. We’d rather work with your real schedule than have you stress about fitting lessons into impossible time slots. Consistency matters more than perfect timing, so we’ll find a rhythm that works for your life.
What should we expect during our first dance lesson?
Your first lesson focuses on getting comfortable with each other and the space, plus understanding your goals and timeline. We’ll spend time talking about your wedding song, your vision for the dance, and any concerns you have about learning to dance together.
Then we’ll start with basic posture, connection, and simple movements to see how you both move naturally. No pressure to memorize complex steps—we’re just getting a feel for your rhythm and comfort level with dancing together.
By the end of the first lesson, you’ll have learned a few basic moves and have a clear plan for the remaining lessons. Most couples leave feeling much more confident about the process and excited about their progress, rather than overwhelmed by everything they need to learn.
Can you work with couples who have very different skill levels?
Absolutely. This is actually very common—often one partner has some dance experience while the other feels completely lost. We’re experts at bridging that gap and making both partners feel comfortable and successful.
We start by working with the less experienced partner to build basic confidence and skills, while giving the more experienced partner techniques to be a better leader or follower. The key is making sure neither person feels held back or left behind.
We also adjust our teaching approach based on how each person learns best. Some people are visual learners, others need to feel the movement, and some prefer step-by-step verbal instruction. We use whatever combination works for your partnership so you both progress together and actually enjoy the learning process.
