Dance with old soldiers (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lancers

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

This might be a double definition.

'dance' is the first definition.
(lancers is a kind of dance)

'old soldiers' is the second definition.
'lancers' can be an answer for 'soldiers' (lancer is a kind of soldier). I am not sure about the 'old' bit.

'with' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for lancers that I've seen before include "Cavalrymen - dance" , "Cavalry soldiers; dance" , "Old regiment; dance" , "Quadrille for eight/sixteen pairs" , "Soldiers with spears on horseback" .)
