Turn and leave, as a dancer (2-2)

I believe the answer is:

go-go

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'a dancer' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't tell whether it can be defined by this definition.

'turn and leave' is the wordplay.
'turn' becomes 'go' (a person's move in a board game).
'and' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'leave' becomes 'go' (to go is to depart or leave).
'go'+'go'='GO-GO'

'as' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for go-go that I've seen before include "Assertively dynamic" , "Kind of erotic dancing" , "Type of erotic dancing" , "__________ dancer, exotic performer" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
