Dance and have your little fun (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

fling

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

'dance' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'and have your little fun' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'and' could be 'n' (common abbreviation for 'and') and 'n' is located in the answer.
'little' could be 'l' (abbreviation) and 'l' is present in the answer.
The remaining letters 'fig' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for fling that I've seen before include "Throw violently" , "Brief affair; throw" , "Toss" , "Throw with force" , "Spell of indulgence" .)
