Been a while since I had posted here, figured I was about due. Picture is from one of the dances at Further Confusion 2017, taken by

Try a few and see what you like... and can physically handle. Something that is fun for you. I like to jump around a lot with my big stompy feet... so I learned a very basic shuffle technique. I also like big exaggerated body and arm movements (obviouly), so I worked on those. Just pick a few small movements... and build off those once you get them down. You can do it!!!
Biggest tip I have (and I'm no expert), but "REALLY" listen to the music beat you're dancing to. Something with a strong bass line helps, because you can keep timing to it. Dance "to" the music (to the beat). Don't just dance "with" the music. And remember like I said there too... you're wearing a fursuit... so don't be afraid to exaggerate those moves. Otherwise your fursuit can hide a lot of your body motion.

The physical isn't so much of a problem for me as the mental, I'm just super self conscious around dance floors for some reason. Always feel like everyone is staring at me and it doesn't help that I have no idea what I'm doing out there. Hoping that after I get in some practice time I'll be better about not thinking like that so much.
