Whether you’re preparing for your wedding day or just want to feel comfortable at social gatherings, you’ll develop skills that last a lifetime. Plus, you’ll join a community of people who genuinely support each other’s growth.
Ballroom Dance Studio Heer Park
Ballroom Factory Dance Studio has been Suffolk County’s go-to dance destination for years. We’re not the studio that pushes expensive packages or makes you feel awkward if you’re just starting out.
Our instructors have real experience. Karolina, our lead instructor, has choreographed everything from elegant wedding waltzes to show-stopping Dirty Dancing routines. She’s worked with complete beginners and competition dancers alike.
What sets us apart in Heer Park and throughout Suffolk County is simple: we focus on you, not our sales targets. You’ll get honest feedback, patient instruction, and a clear path forward—whether you want to nail your first dance or compete professionally.
Private Dance Instruction Process
First, we talk. Not about packages or contracts, but about what you actually want to accomplish. Wedding dance? Social confidence? Competition prep? We need to know where you’re headed.
Then we assess where you are now. No judgment—just honest evaluation so we can build the right plan. Some people need to work on basic rhythm. Others already have natural movement but need technique refinement.
Your lessons are tailored to your goals and timeline. We break everything down into manageable pieces, so you’re never overwhelmed. Each session builds on the last, and you’ll see progress every time you walk through our doors. Most importantly, we make sure you’re having fun while you learn.

Wedding Dance Choreography Heer Park
Your dance classes include professional instruction tailored to your specific needs and timeline. We work with your chosen song, your comfort level, and your vision for how you want to look and feel.
For Heer Park couples, we understand the local wedding venue landscape. Whether you’re celebrating at a waterfront location or traditional banquet hall, we’ll prepare you for your specific space and setting. We’ve worked with couples getting married at venues throughout Suffolk County.
You’ll receive custom choreography that matches your personality—not some cookie-cutter routine. We teach you the fundamentals first, then add flair and personal touches. Plus, you get ongoing support and practice opportunities, including our Friday evening sessions where you can refine your skills in a relaxed environment.
How long does it take to learn a wedding dance?
Most couples need 6-8 private lessons to feel confident with their first dance, but this varies based on your goals and comfort level. If you want a simple, elegant dance, we can have you ready in 4-5 sessions.
For more elaborate choreography or if you’re starting as complete beginners, plan for 8-12 lessons. We typically recommend starting 2-3 months before your wedding to avoid stress and allow time for practice. The key is consistent practice between lessons—even 10 minutes at home makes a huge difference in your progress.
Do we both need dance experience to take lessons?
Not at all. Most of our couples come in with zero dance experience, and that’s perfectly fine. We’re used to working with complete beginners and know how to make the learning process comfortable for both partners.
Often, one person is more nervous than the other, which is completely normal. We adjust our teaching style to match both of your comfort levels and learning speeds. The most important thing is that you’re both willing to try and have fun with the process. We’ll handle the rest.
What dance styles do you teach in Heer Park?
We specialize in all major ballroom and Latin dance styles including Waltz, Tango, Foxtrot, Salsa, Cha-Cha, Rumba, and Swing. For wedding couples, we work with whatever song you’ve chosen and adapt the choreography accordingly.
Beyond wedding preparation, we teach social dancing, competitive ballroom, and Latin styles for all skill levels. Many of our Heer Park students start with wedding prep and continue with regular lessons because they discover how much they enjoy dancing. We also offer group classes if you prefer learning alongside other couples.
How much do dance lessons cost in Suffolk County?
Our private lessons are competitively priced and we never pressure you into expensive packages. We believe in transparent, pay-as-you-go pricing so you’re always in control of your investment.
Wedding dance packages typically range from $400-800 depending on the number of lessons and complexity of choreography you want. We’ll give you an honest assessment of what you’ll need during your consultation. Group classes are significantly less expensive and a great option if you want ongoing dance education after your wedding.
Can I take lessons if I don't have a partner?
Absolutely. Many of our students come in solo and we’re well-equipped to work with individuals. Our instructors can partner with you during lessons, and we have a welcoming community where you’ll meet other dancers.
We also offer group classes where you can rotate partners and practice with different people. This is actually beneficial for learning because you adapt to different leading and following styles. Some of our best dancers started as individuals and found partners within our dance community.
What should I expect in my first dance lesson?
Your first lesson starts with a conversation about your goals, timeline, and any concerns you might have. We’ll assess your natural rhythm and movement, then introduce basic concepts for your chosen dance style.
Don’t worry about looking perfect—everyone feels awkward at first. We’ll teach you proper posture, basic steps, and how to move together as a couple. Most people are surprised by how much they accomplish in their first session. You’ll leave with a clear understanding of what you’re working toward and confidence that you can actually do this.
