Jig, shake and carouse without stopping (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

dance

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'jig' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'shake and carouse without stopping' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
an anagram of 'and' is 'dan' which is present in the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for dance that I've seen before include "Move(ment) to music" , "Waltz, say" , "Quickstep, e.g." , "spin?" , "Waltz maybe" .)
