Unorthodox priest with job providing inspiration to dance (11)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

terpsichore

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

'dance' is the definition.
(I know that dance can be written as terpsichore)

'unorthodox priest with job' is the wordplay.
'unorthodox' indicates anagramming the letters.
'with' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'job' becomes 'chore' (synonyms).
'priest' is an anagram of 'terpsi'.
'terpsi'+'chore'='TERPSICHORE'

'providing inspiration to' is the link.
I am not very happy about this link. Some or all of it may be part of another bit of the clue.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for terpsichore that I've seen before include "this muse being the inspiration?" , "I inspire dancers" , "The Muse of dance" , "Inspiring female" .)
