What kind of dance is Memed doing

[strawberry]

Hello everyone,

I'm wondering if anyone can help me figure out what kind of dance Memed is doing. I recently watched a video of him dancing and it looks like some kind of traditional style of dance, but I'm not sure what it is. I'm hoping someone here can offer some insight into what type of dance he is performing.

I'm also open to any resources or videos people can share to help me learn more about this style of dance. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Memed is doing a traditional Turkish folk dance called the Horon. Horon is a type of line dance that has been popular in Turkey since the 16th century. It is an energetic and lively dance that is usually done in a circle or line. The dance involves stepping and clapping in intricate patterns while the dancers move in unison. The music typically consists of fast-paced drumming and singing. There are many different variations of the Horon dance, all of which are traditionally performed in different regions of Turkey.
