Take a class. Do not expect to reach an intermediate level in the span of two months but you can provide yourself with a foundation in that time period.

Are we talking legitimate dancing, such as tango, salsa, etc., or just general party dancing? Because with general party dancing, it's mostly just mental. Once you stop caring about what people think of what you look like when you're out there on the dance floor having fun, it becomes much easier to just listen to the beat of the music and move your arms and body to the tempo.

There isn't any exact dancing skillset that you can train to. Pretty much just learn how to "listen" to music, as in being able to tell when the beat is picking up or slowing down, and move your arms and body accordingly. When the beat picks up, move your hips and torso a bit faster and just do whatever feels right with your arms. Don't worry about looking stupid, no one really cares and it's more important to have fun than to worry about other people's opinions.

However, if you really are genuinely worried and looking for some dance moves, just look on youtube and copy others' to the best of your ability. I've watched a couple of Matt Steffanina's videos and stole a few moves from there, personally. The vast majority of people don't know how to actually dance (myself included), so it's really not that big of a deal to look amateurish. You look more stupid if you stand around awkwardly or sit at your table the whole time while everybodys having a blast. Dancing is about having fun, so don't sweat it more than you need to.

Learn how to swing dance. The basic moves are easy and can be flashy with out learning any lift or throws. Swing is all about the style. Its also shows confidence when uou can lead the girls properly through the moves, even if they are simplistic by nature.

Also, swing can be applied to many various music styles. All you need to learn from other styles is the basic step, in which you can work into any swing link set. Know a salsa basic? Start there, then add swing manuvers but to the salsa beat. Its a very versitle style.

what kind of style? for party music just look up beginner hiphop tutorials on youtube (search things like "toprock", "shuffling", "popping", and find some moves you think are cool and not too hard). also if possible try to find someone at your school who dances, that way they can see what you need to focus on.

I speak as someone who is the world's worst dancer, but the truth is that you have to be into the music, regardless of whether it is rock or jazz or salsa, or bachata, and then physically express your bodily movements through the music.

My seven year old daughter is a wonderful dancer. You can play her tango music, cha-cha-cha, ballet music, rock and roll, swing, meringue. and she dances perfectly, even though she has never had a lesson. I don't know how, but clearly she hears the music and knows what body movements come with it.

In practical terms, men are not expected to be great dancers, and you can just stand there and wobble a bit, and concentrate on helping your female dance partner to show off her moves. No one much will look at you. If there is one tip that helps, it is try to relax at the knees and keep them slightly bent. You can't be stiff kneed and dance.
