I would suggest finding local swing/blues dances. The ones hosted around my neck of the woods (in the US) host lessons 30 minutes-1 hour before the main dance. I recommend swing dancing because there are several steps starting from a very easy Jitterbug to a more complicated Lindy Hop. I recommend swing dancing because the music is upbeat, the dress is more casual, the people tend to be younger and there are always lots of ladies wanting to dance. Once you master one or more of these steps, you can twist around all kinds on the dance floor and look great. The steps also translate well into dancing in other non-swing clubs.
There are several swing clubs (dancing only here) here that have weekly lessons outside of the dances. These lessons will teach you spins, more complicated leading (a good thing to master) and how to look cool. Once you learn these steps, if you want to go out and learn ballroom or samba or square dancing, your instructor can usually tell you of classes available.
The great thing about going to dances if you can find them is the group changes each time. You go and dance with lots of people. I can tell you that swing dancing is ALWAYS looking for more men.
