Dance clubs round northern Georgia (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

conga

'dance' is the definition.
(conga is a kind of dance)

'clubs round northern georgia' is the wordplay.
'clubs' becomes 'c' (abbreviation used in card games such as bridge).
'round' becomes 'o' (round can mean a round object**).
'northern' becomes 'n' (abbreviation e.g. N. Ireland).
'georgia' becomes 'ga'.
'c'+'o'+'n'+'ga'='CONGA'

(Other definitions for conga that I've seen before include "Dance performed in line" , "Latin American dance with three steps and a kick" , "Single-file dance" , "Serpentine dance" , "Long-line dance" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
