Gercekten muhtesem. Yurtdisinda ogretmen olarak calisiyorum ve yabanci ogrencilerim yarin bu dansin ufak bir kismini sahneleyecek. Hem heyecan hem de gurur verici.
@@zendaya0697 so why Lazians of Georgia have no idea about this dance? Teacher of this dance in this video is husband of my aunt, we have nothing to do with Lazians. Stop lying!
So do i, my human brother! Peace to you and to all in this truly wonderful & precious world. The one planet that we all share as humans. So, with this being said, let's all be more mindful of this always & let's try harder to treat our planet with more respect & care & let's all be nicer toward each other.
Did I just watch 8 minutes 55 seconds of perfection? YES. Even the bowing at the end was perfect like how were they so amazing??!! Their teachers taught them good
This music touches my soul. This music & traditional dance is something truly special guys. To the Turkish people, please always keep your culture, music, dance etc: truly alive & well. It's amazing! Thank you, for sharing with the world. x
@@d1lara66 Your comment is very touching to me too. You're very sweet/kind. My very best wishes sent your way & may we all as humans, try to get on much better. For we're all one race, the human race & we're all much more similar, than we are different. Take care. :-)
delvino ximara it maybe Greek from origin but the Greeks forgot how to dance the horon. Plus there is so much Turkish influence that it doesn’t look much like the original horon. Maybe they can come to Trabzon to take some lessons?
My goodness!!!! i wish they didn't stop. It was totally insane, it got me nailed watching every move they make, and it was absolutely very NEAT!... joy is shared, thanks uploader :)
Same thing here Joshua. I am listening to it at work. I have a boost of energy just listening to this. I am playing it over and over and over again. Actually I am itching to lose my chair and start hopping. That won't do in the office, sadly. Waiting to get home..... Noor
@tsakosmi tsakosmakos It doesnt come from the greek word. Perhaps you took it from us ? You like to do that afterall. You are adding ‘-ki’ and suddenly it belongs you. Example: Baklavaki, cacıki... All of them are actually are part of Turkish cuisine. Baklava is a turkish name but if you claim that its yours we claim horon is ours as well
@tsakosmi tsakosmakos Pff I take shower once in a day totally not smelly bruh. You love insults ha ? You say it was a dance in Troy. Troy is far away from that region. Link me sources then if you are sure. Lazis, Georgians and you everyone claims it. It can be part of some common culture but you Greeks always claim things that isnt yours. My Macedon friends always complain about it lol. Plus we are not Mongol. Turkic isnt equal to Mongol. Educate yourself. We dont even have the same language. You cant insult people by race and being Mongol is not a bad thing. Did I call you any insult like ‘gayreek’ ?
@@zendaya0697 ya sen salak mısın bu Türklerin dansı Türk lazlık ayrı bir şeydir türklük ayrıdır bu Türklerin dansı sadece lazlar da türklerle yaşaya yaşaya aynısını yapıyor salak olay bı
A typical ignorant greek. The origin is Persian not Greek.In many cultures there is a similar musical instrument as named in different names and this dance is not just Greek,Georgians and Laz people lived near black sea played this folk dance and today's Greece learned from migrants from black sea.
ohhh pls go to school and learn history omg... turks stole all from hellenic traditions my friend live with the trues and dont seed the turkish propaganda in to the internet please... thanks
Sukru Ondas Pontus dates back to 1000 B.C. back when Persians still didnt exist. I think you are the arrogant here. Learn some history because turkish schools only teach propaganda
@@nerimannteli7090 ne alaka ben orda bi Türkün diğer Türklere karşı ingilizce yazmasına karşı yazdim. Anlayamamış olmani iyi Türkçe bilmemene veriyorum.
Turkey, i am coming to meet you for the first time soon! I cannot wait! I love you & your people. You guys give new meaning to the term, "Turkish Delight"! haha This performance just keeps getting better, each time i watch it again. It's truly awesome! I cannot stop dancing, each time i hear the brilliant, evocative & mesmerizing instrumental sounds. So full of energy & so very catchy! Listen to this via stereo, surround sound, with the volume wayyy up & watch the dancers! It sounds sooooo amazing & is addictive! Nothing beats a live concert, as the sound & beat is real loud/surreal, but via surround sound, it's still like your very own little home concert. haha :-)
Waooooo ....Precioso, regio,!!!! Bravo por estos bailarines, muy enérgicos, este baile requiere mucha energía. Y es increíble la coordinación. Me encanta la cultura Turka.
@@aangxlic_x Are you Turkish? This is from the region of Karadeniz right? I'm Mexican but your culture and music are very lovely I just wish I could try some authentic Turkish cuisine.
Amazing!! 😍😍💖 I love horon~ its a very energetic and lovely dance! I performed this song with my friends in school for autumn cultural fair. They liked it 😊😀 greetings from Mexico!
This brings me UNTOLD joy!! It brings tears to my eyes & i've now watched it "countless" times. TURKEY.......Your peoples and their culture, is so, so amazing, interesting & beautiful! I love Turkey! Thank you for sharing this delight and human masterpiece!!! My best wishes to all. x
I’m both Pontic Greek and Turk so ı can be very objective about it.Horon dance belongs to Turks but it is very normal to share same music and same dance because we had lived together for years under Ottoman Empire.I love being half Turk and half Greek❤️
Oh my gosh, how beautiful indeed! Wow, what beautiful & wonderful DNA. Such ancient, powerful & great civilizations. I identify as Swedish, but when i took my DNA test, i found out i'm a small part Turkish & Greek. :-) I cannot put into words, the pride & joy i am feeling. It's beyond words. It's within my heart & soul, like an internal fire burning. I have always loved Greece & Turkey, so how amazing for me to find out that ancestrally, i am connected to these 2 global regions/countries. My Turkish & Greek ancestors DNA, are still echoing through me. Bless their souls eternally.
@Tuğrul In your state of ignorance, you probably do not know that the word "pontic" stems from the Greek word "pontos" which is another word for sea passage, as the Greek Pontians established their communities along the coastal areas of the Black sea, hence Pontios. The word horos means "dance" and has been used from antiquity to the present by Greeks. Look up the word "choreography" to reveal to yourself the Greek root of choros - (dance). Your barbaric language that you did not start writing in (latin/greek script) until recently was embellished by the words of the more civilized people your mongol nomad forefathers borrowed when they settled in Greek territories. The very name of your largest city "Istanbul" is a corruption of the Greek words on road signs that said "Is tin Polin" (To the City). Your language and culture has very little to do with the lands you live in. Every time you turn an ancient stone, Greek script is chiseled on it. Buy an etymological dictionary and you will be even more miserable when you realize that you would not even be able to say "history" without Greek. If you ask any educated Turk, you will be disappointed to find out that you have very little to show in your culture that is Turkish. It all has been borrowed from Persia, Arabia and Ionia. What is even sadder, is that if you do not have slanted eyes, you are probably of Greek descent and your forefathers were forced to convert to save their lives from the idiots that spread as locusts there in the 11th century.
Oh so very wonderful!! Superb performance to all! At then end of your performance, i stood up & clapped like crazy! So wonderful & so important, to keep such amazing traditions & superb music alive. Gosh i love the sound of this music! I can hear the similarity, between traditional Turkish & traditional Greek music. It's magnificent guys!! I cannot stop dancing! hahaha My ancestor came from Turkey. This country, it's people & it's magical culture & music are like fire, within my heart & soul. I shed tears of amazement, pride & happiness whilst watching this. All the dancers look so gorgeous, so beautiful & so handsome in their traditional folk costumes. I really like, the little ongoing shake of the chest & shoulders & the quick steps & jumps. haha :-) I've just counted, that i've watched this 6 times in one day already! I will watch it regularly, as i love it that much.
@@shingosshojiopoulos6608 Lol. Why does everything belong to Greeks? You Greeks say everything that u have belong to u. You have to accept u took somethings from other cultures...
@@zendaya0697 You literally commented EVERYWHERE don’t you have hobbys or other things to do then do this shit? stop commenting on every comment you are so annoying and if you don’t like turkey then don’t watch this video

Just for those who think this dance is Greek dance, I am from Azerbaijan and we have the same style. We cannot learn it from turks because Ottoman empire and Safavi empire were enemies. We literally hated each other but still our folk genres and dances are similar. Because we both are turks.
Emil Alizadeh these dances are from Northern Turkey and have nothing to donwith Azerbaijan. Since Greek people lived here in large numbers the dance was danced by both. Most of these people are Turkified Greeks anyways.
Emil, even if something is yours, Anatolia does it better than you. Understand.If you bought something from Anatolia, that thing fades in you. Sorry. Everything is good in Anatolia.

Gerçekten harika bir performans çok güzel organize olmuş bir ekip. Bu kadar kalabalık kişiyle oynayıp bu şekilde uyum içinde olmak çok güzel. Tebrikler 👏👏👏
It doesn't matter whos dance is this . The thing that matters is Who enjoys it. Please do not fight over anything dear Greeks and Turks. Something similar doesn't always mean something stolen ...
@@merveuzun2536 Yes my dear. It is Swedish. I am part Scandinavian, so i type in both Norwegian & Swedish specifically, as i like to maintain regular practice & use of both languages. I hope you are well. Take care & stay safe. :-)
Pakistan är ett otroligt fantastiskt & vackert land, med lika fantastiska och vackra människor. Total gästfrihet upplevde jag där tidigare i år. Jag planerar min nästa resa dit. Älskar dig Pakistan! Jag lägger också till det fantastiska Turkiet till min lista den här gången. Ett annat fantastiskt land, folk & kulturupplevelse, för de som besöker. :-)
Here's a joke for you: Zeybek team won the national folk dance competition once and the captain of Horon team commented: "If we had time to think during the dance, we would win!"
Helal olsuuuunnn helallll!!! Gurur duyuyorum seninle Türkiye. Ellerinize Ayaklariniza sağlık. Böyle bir performansı ilk defa görüyorum. Mükemmelsiniz. Size bunları öğreten hocaların ayaklarına taş değmesin. ❤️🤲🏽😍 Almanyadan selamlar...
Who cares what the origins of this dance is. The fact remains that the choreographic execution by this troupe is flawless, impeccably perfect and a tribute to their talent, training, and discipline. Wonderful to witness and enjoy.
The origin of the dance comes from the people who live in that specific geography. Weather under Caucasian/Persian/Hellenic/Roman/Byzantine or Turkic colonial control, these people are the same people that have been living here for millennia, they still carry the same genetics, same short temper and the same culture. First they were pagans, then they were one sect of a Semitic religion, now they are another sect of a Semitic religion. They are ferociously nationalistic under whichever nation they are in, even if some still speak an ancient dialect of Greek, or are from a pre-islamic Turkic migration, or speak an ancient Caucasian language (Laz) they are their own people and carry very little resemblance culturally to other Turks or have almost nothing in common with Mediterranean Greeks (but are still the same as the exiled Pontian Greeks).
@@jellybean9756 The only thing similar to the Greek dances of the Pontus area before the genocide and expell of the Greeks are the clothes and the same music organs. Nothing else is similar. This was partying. The Pontic Greek dance of Pyrichios or Serra are war dances with roots to antiquety 2000 years before the Turkic tribes and traditions arrived in the area. Xenophon describes the dance in his history when he and his 10000 mercenaries escaping the Persian empire finally reached safety and the Greek colonies in Pontus. You can see on youtube the Pontic Greek dance and compare it with this one. No comparison. There are some Turkic 'copies' of the Greek dance but again cant compare. Even the name of the dance is Greek. Horon comes from the Greek word Horos which simply means dance. Another diffrence from the authentic Greek version is you never see women dancing it. Its a mens warrior dance. And you can clearly see central turkic asian influence in this dance in everything. The rythm the music the singing. In the Greek version you dont
@@jellybean9756 And the region was Greek dominated for 2000 years. Even in Ottoman era Greek was the dominant culture. To this day people there have Greek genetics are muslimised Greeks and recently one of the biggest dna ancestry sites was boycotted by Turkish nationalist when it published results about the region which stated Greek ancestry for the population of the area
Alıntı ZekoBeatz I just want to say as a Laz from Rize, that this dance belongs to the indigenous people of the blacksea region in Turkey. It is not Greek, because Greeks are definetly not the indigenous people of Anatolia. Ancient Greeks assimilated the local population in Anatolia, gave the settlements Greek names and started numerous wars in Anatolia. The so called Pontian Greeks are hellenized Anatolians. The hellenization of the blacksea region in Turkey began with the colonization of Sinop from Milet. On the other hand I saw many examples of the Greek horon, it was awful to watch and I dont dare to compare it to the horon from Turkey. Subsequently horon, kemence and tulum are indispensable parts of Laz and Turkish people in the blacksea region. All women, children, men from 7 to 70 years there dance it not only as a show, also just to have fun in a corner of a street, in weddings, festivals or circumization feasts. I never saw a Greek women dancing it.
Yanlış biliyorsun canım. Bu, Ankara'da görev yapan Trabzon'lu öğretmenlerin tasarladığı, Trabzon Horonu orijinli yeni bir dans türüdür. Yunan'la bir alakası yok. Yunan da kemençe çalar, horon oynar ama bu tür değil.
