Verb that comes from a corruption of the ballet term "chassé" (6)

I believe the answer is:

sashay

(Other definitions for sashay that I've seen before include "Walk with exaggerated hip and shoulder movements" , "Walk in showy way" , "Move ostentatiously" , "A piano manufacturer" , "Move glidingly" .)

I've seen this clue in the LA Times.
