One great way to meet more awesome people is to explicitly mention this goal to your existing awesome friends and ask them to introduce you to other growth-oriented people.
Figure out what situations led you to the good friendships you have, and recreate those. In my case I found that nearly all my great friendships started with interactions/events of two hours or more. There are several reasons why this might be true (familiarity, more time to find common interests, people engaged in long conversations will have more time to socialize), but the application was to structure my socializing more around a few longer events (e.g. game nights) and less around short social events.
Do you feel like you’re dancing enough to get the fun & social benefits? If not, it’s probably worth setting up a system that lets you dance more, e.g. by going to dance events.
It sounds like the criterion for useful skills is “impress people in social situations”. There are a wide class of skills that could address this, such as juggling, martial arts, public speaking, improv, hosting events, and telling jokes/comedy. Since you’ve already shown facility with kinesthetic skills, juggling or martial arts may be a good way to proceed.
