How can you prevent very excessive sweating under arms even when it's cold or you're not doing anything?

The most practical advice is to use an antiperspirantrather than a deodorant. Deodorants ("body spray", "cologne") mask odors but don't prevent sweating.
Antiperspirants, available as sprays and roll-ons, prevent sweating at source by blocking the sweat glands (or causing them to shrink).
If you already use antiperspirant and it is ineffective, it may be worth changing brand as different brands work in different ways. Try several brands until you hit on one that works.
If you've tried this, then you may need a more specialist antiperspirant. There are several over-the-counter brands, and your pharmacist will be happy to advise.
After that, there are some antiperspirants that your GP/HMO can advise upon.
Failing even that (which covers 99% of excess sweating), there are some medical disorders that cause sweating. Your GP/HMO can advise on these in confidence and arrange for tests. Ultimately, it is possible to surgically sever the nerve that controls sweating, preventing it happening permanently. This is a last resort that your doctor can discuss with you after you have tried all other avenues.

How can you keep from sweating when dancing?
Well, I'm a dancer, and I also have hyperhydrosis-excessive sweating. It is really hard to be a dancer with a sweating disorder, but there are things to help. I have a prescription to help withthat. But for a dancer, it is very normal to sweat. But if it is excessive like mine is, and it holds youback from doing certain steps (for example doing anything that requieres you to touch the floor or put your weight on your hands on the floor, or even partnering with a guy) than you might want to see a dermatologist.

How do you stop armpit sweating?
You can't just stop sweating. It serves a major purpose in ridding the body of toxins and as a cooling effect to regulate body temperature. If you are sweating profusely under you arms or anywhere else, when doing very little in cooler weather (for example) you may have Hyperhydrosis. In extreme cases a Dr. can do a very simple procedure to sever the nerve under local anesthesia, that is in the affected area to slow down or stop the excessive sweating.
