The Zeybek is a dance of the Aegean region. The very lively dance is performed alone or with a few people. It is mostly found in the provinces of Izmir, Aydın, Antalya and Balıkesir.
In Anatolia there are different Zeybek varieties.
These are: Sarı(yellow) Zeybek, Zeybek of Bergama , Osman Zeybek. Though one can call it 'Zeybek Dance', just as in the compound expression 'Zeybek Outfit', the word "Zeybek" alone is the collective noun for all the different varieties of Zeybek."
