There are several types of folkloric dance in Turkey.
For example "zeybek" in Aegean region, "misket" in Central Anatolia, "horon" and "kolbasti" in Blacksea region, and many types of halay in Southeastern and Eastern Anatolia, and "kasap havası" in Marmara region are the first ones that come to my mind..
"Ciftetelli" and "Halay" are well-known dances country-wide, but the figures may change due to the regions.
Also, alongside not being originated in Turkey, "belly dance" is very common. |

If you are talking about folk dance, then there are lots of dances in Turkey varying from region to region.
Search for "The Fire of Anatolia" or "Sultans of Dance" in Youtube.
Also search for "Horon", "Çiftetelli", "Çayda Çıra", "Zeybek", "Kaşıklı", "Kılıç-Kalkan" and so many others.

Gugu: ''Horon'' is actually a dance of Greek origin. The word itself is Greek: ''horon''= ''dance'' in Greek.
It originates from the ''Pyrricheios'' dance which has been performed by Pontian Greeks for thousands of years. This dance was danced in many parts of the Ancient Greek world and Pontos was one of them.
Here's a link with Pontian Greeks dancing ''Pyrrichios'':
