I started dancing 2 years ago in my early 30s. Salsa/bachata specifically. Never danced a step before then (or at least: not while sober). After a 2 years of practise, I now regularly get compliments at the festivals/parties, and the ladies at the dance school like it when I’m joining the lessons, since I can lead well. I’m still no expert, but I certainly get a lot of joy from it. And for the record: I’m a slightly overweight nerd who is certainly not nimble or agile. I also hate rythm games, I suck at those, but dancing on the beat is so much easier!
My point is: it’s worth trying. Find a dance school that teaches salsa and/or bachata, and go for it. If you find the right people, you will stay motivated, and it gets more and more fun!

Sounds fun, I’ll try joining. It’just that you have to make choices because weeks have only 7 days…
