He's a bit of a dancer (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

dan

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

'bit of a dancer' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'he's a' is the wordplay.
'he's' becomes 'd' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'a' becomes 'an'.
'd'+'an'='DAN'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for dan that I've seen before include "Level of competence in judo" , "Expertise level in juso" , "Grade of proficiency in judo" , "-- Dare, comic hero" , "Jacob's fourth son" .)
