Go-Go Dancing is Exactly What It Says on the Tin - dancing professionally and energetically on one's own, often but not always at a nightclub, for the entertainment of the patrons. While the outfits that go-go dancers wear are usually minimal to the point of being stripperiffic (and occasionally the dancers go topless, as at least one famously did at San Francisco's Condor Club in the 1960s), the dancers do not as a rule actually strip - go-go bars are not strip clubs.
