Dance company not giving aid for beginners (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

conga

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

'dance' is the definition.
(I know that conga is a type of dance)

'company not giving aid for beginners' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'company' could be 'co' (abbreviation) and 'co' is found in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for conga that I've seen before include "Latin American dance with three steps and a kick" , "Chain dance" , "Party dance" , "Snaking Latin American dance" , "Lined-up dance" .)
