MEET THE HEART BEHIND VANCOUVER'S DANCE MOVEMENT 🔥

Before welcoming an international guest to Vancouver, there was already someone inspiring our local community through movement.

Meet Quan Guo, founder of GQ Dance, respected ZIN™, and the Vancouver host and co-organizer of Zumba For Love 2026.

Known for his infectious energy and passion for bringing people together, Quan has built more than a dance fitness community, he has built a place where people of all backgrounds can connect, grow, and experience the joy of movement.

His inspiring journey from Biomedical Engineer to one of British Columbia's most recognized dance fitness leaders was recently featured by The Times of Canada.

Read his story:
https://thetimesofcanada.com/quan-guos-dance-fitness-revolution-from-biomedical-engineer-to-zumba-sensation/

Last year, Quan helped launch the very first Zumba For Love, bringing together more than 200 participants to raise funds for the BC Cancer Foundation. It was a powerful reminder that dance has the ability to unite communities and create meaningful impact.

Read about the 2025 event:

This year, the movement continues.
Together with international ZUMBA® Finalist Tamás Zsolnai, Quan is bringing Vancouver another unforgettable experience—one that celebrates movement, inclusion, and community while supporting Pacific Autism Family Network.

One Community. One Global Collaboration. One Meaningful Cause.
