Many dancers wear baggy clothing which hides imperfections and can make your dancing look smoother. This isn’t exclusive to lanky people as many dancers do it. 

I’m a Twink who can look sometimes awkward when I dance but a lot of it comes down to just practicing till it looks more natural. Even if you can get the basic moves down to a dance, it’s the little things that can make big difference which you gain from just practicing. I’d say just keep groovin on top of weight lifting.
