Insider Info: Go-go dancing originated at a club called The Peppermint Lounge in NYC during the 60's. Women would get up on the tables to do the twist, and go-go dancing was born! Also, according to Wiki, the term Go-Go is "derived from the French expression à gogo, meaning 'in abundance, galore' which is in turn derived from the ancient French word la gogue for "joy, happiness."
