This study investigated the contribution of Turkish folk dances to the development of self-confidence and social skills of individuals. Folk dances are activities that strengthen social bonds and improve individuals’ ability to express and adapt in groups. These dances play an important role in strengthening participants’ self-confidence. Elements such as performing on stage and being appreciated by the community strengthen the individual’s belief in themselves. At the same time, the demands of communication and cooperation during folk dances allow participants to develop their social skills. The educational value of folk dances is not limited to the social and emotional development of the individual, but is also of great importance for the preservation and transmission of cultural identity. By reflecting the values and social norms passed down through generations, these dances make an important contribution to the preservation of cultural heritage. Consequently, it can be said that folk dances have an important place in Turkish culture and make a significant contribution to the development of self-confidence and social skills of individuals. Therefore, the inclusion and dissemination of folk dances in educational programs is of great importance for the social and emotional development of individuals.
