Our Story
I’m Geraldine ‘Gigi’ Goyer, founder and principal instructor. My love for dance spans over 35 years, with a special passion for Argentine Tango, which I discovered mid-career.
Inspired by my studies with esteemed Tango masters and my desire to spread this beautiful art, I opened our studio. Tango Burnaby is more than a place to learn—it’s a community where dancers of all levels find joy, connection, and growth.
I’m thrilled to share this dance that has so deeply enriched my life with you.
