I believe that you nod when you agree with something, and you shake your head when you disagree. (or when you are dancing)

To say yes, I nod my head.
To say no, I shake my head.

The word is "nod". Nod is usually an up/down movement and therefore is used for acceptance. She nodded in response to my proposal.

"Shake head" is usually a side-to-side movement indicating a decline. Often the word "no" is added. She shook her head no to my proposal.
