Get high through exotic dances (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ascend

'get high' is the definition.
(to ascend is to get higher)

'exotic dances' is the wordplay.
'exotic' indicates an anagram (an unusual form of the letters).
'dances' is an anagram of 'ASCEND'.

'through' is the link.

(Other definitions for ascend that I've seen before include "Move upwards" , "Move upward" , "Scale" , "Mount" , "Gain altitude" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
