In this study, the socio-cultural interaction of Turkish–Serbian traditional dances will be analysed within the context of historical socio-political relations between the Anatolian and Balkan peninsula regions. Based on field research conducted in Serbia and Türkiye since 2008, morphological partnerships or dissociations in traditional dances will be identified. Our sources mainly come from the limited information acquired through samples from the Sandžak region in Serbia and from the migrant Sandžak Bosniaks living in the cities of Istanbul, Izmir and Bursa in Türkiye. In particular, the dance structure of the people who have migrated to Türkiye from Serbia in the last 50 years will be mentioned. In addition, the traditional dance structures of the Muslim people who live in Serbia’s Sandžak region (today in Serbia’s Raška District) will be examined.
