Corporation shaken with steps this person takes? (5,6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

belly dancer

'steps this person takes?' is the definition.
'belly dancer' can be an answer for 'person' (belly dancer is a kind of person). I am not certain of the remainder of the definition.

'corporation shaken' is the wordplay.
'corporation' becomes 'belly' (corporation can humorously mean belly fat).
'shaken' becomes 'dancer' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'belly'+'dancer'='BELLY-DANCER'

'with' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for belly dancer that I've seen before include "Performing gyrator of the tummy" , "manoeuvring needed for such?" , "Middle Eastern entertainer" , "Exotic Middle Eastern performer" , "Female performer" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
