Regional dances in Turkey include bar, halay, horon, zeybek, and other forms. Bar dances are performed side by side in groups in eastern Anatolia accompanied by davul and zurna. Halay is widespread in eastern, southeastern, and central Anatolia and features rich rhythmic elements performed with drum-zurna or other instruments. Horon derives from Greek and is circular in nature with short steps, found in the Black Sea region accompanied by cura zurna. Zeybek dances vary in tempo from slow to fast and are widespread in western Anatolia, often featuring measures of 9/8 and traditional drum-zurna accompaniment. Other forms include kars

We believe that folk culture is a cornerstone for our natural cohesion and unity. An overall development on various fields of economic and social life can only be achieve through education and culture. Cultural values that reflect our national pride and aesthetic values are very important. We can as a stable society find our spiritual, physical and aesthetic needs from the values of Turkish folk culture.
2. Bar (dance)
With their structure and formation, they are the
dances performed by groups in the open. They are
spread, in general, over the eastern part of Anatolia
(Erzurum, Bayburt, Agri, Kars, Artvin and Erzincan
provinces). The characteristic of their formation is that
they are performed side-by-side, hand, shoulder and
arm-in-arm. Woman and man bars are different from one
another. The principal instruments of our bar dances are
davul and zurna (shrill pipe).
3. Halay
The rhythmic elements
of halay dances are very rich
and are mostly performed with
drum-zurna combination as
well as with kaval (shepherd's
pipe), sipsi (reed), cigirtma
(fife) or baglama (an
instrument with three double
strings played with a plectrum)
or performed when folk songs
are sung.
This folk-dance, is a part of Turkish dance and is

striking dance. It has a rich figure structure of simplicity

4. Horon
The horon (Greek:
Horos [masculine noun,
singular form, nominative]),
which derives from the Greek
word choros (Greek: (ο)
Χορός) meaning dance in
both ancient and modern
Greek, Turkish: Horon, is a
dance style found in the
Black Sea region, now
modern Turkey.
The dances called Horon derived from the Greek
culture of the area and are circular in nature, each
characterized by distinct short steps. HORON or the
round dance is a typical folk dance of the Black Sea
coastal area and its interior parts.
5. Horon
Horons appear very different from
the folk dances in other parts of the
country with their formation of tempo,
rhythm and measure. Horons are
performed, in general, by groups and
their characteristic measure is 7/16 For
their melodies are rendered very fast, it is
very difficult to render them with every
instrument.
For this reason,
rendering with a drum and
zurna becomes practical.
Melodies of horon are
performed with the small
type of zurna which is called
'cura'.
6. Zeybek

formed, in general, of 9/8 measures and have a
variety of tempos such as very slow, slow, fast and
very fast. Very slow zeybek dances have the
measure of 9/2, slow ones 9/4 and some others
9/8.
7. Zeybek
Very fast dances, for
instance, teke (goat) dance seen in
Burdur - Fethiye region can be
regarded as dances of zeybek
character, they have the traditional
measure of 9/16 There is another
folk dance named as BENGI in the
zeybek region. It is performed
more differently than zeybek and
has got a different musical feature
and the most characteristic
measure of bengi dance is 9/8.
Particularly in slow zeybeks, the
traditional instruments is drum-
zurna combination.

instrument are 2 drum - 2 zurna combination,
the most characteristic use of this combination is
seen in this region.
9. Kaşık Oyunları (Wooden-spoon dances):

Mediterranean region and have a very different
structure with their arrangement performance,
rhythmic and melodic characteristics. They are
always rendered with wooden- spoons and the
