Hungarian dance refers to the folk dances practised and performed by the Hungarians, both amongst the populations native to Hungary and its neighbours, and also amongst the Hungarian diaspora. According to György Martin, a prominent folklore expert, Hungarian dances can be divided into two categories. The first refers to dances performed in the middle ages while the second relates to the 18th and 19th century. Hungarians have been noted for their "exceptionally well developed sense of rhythm". In the mid-19th century, Musicologist Theodor Billroth performed tests with troops of various nationalities stationed in Vienna and found that the Hungarian troops outperformed others in keeping time with music.

| - Hungarian dance refers to the folk dances practised and performed by the Hungarians, both amongst the populations native to Hungary and its neighbours, and also amongst the Hungarian diaspora. According to György Martin, a prominent folklore expert, Hungarian dances can be divided into two categories. The first refers to dances performed in the middle ages while the second relates to the 18th and 19th century. Hungarians have been noted for their "exceptionally well developed sense of rhythm". In the mid-19th century, Musicologist Theodor Billroth performed tests with troops of various nationalities stationed in Vienna and found that the Hungarian troops outperformed others in keeping time with music. Improvisation and energetic movements are often mentioned as being characteristic of Hungarian dance. Daniel Berzsenyi wrote, "Its secret laws are not ordered by craft. The laws are its own and enthusiasm sets the limit." Elizabeth Charlotte Rearick wrote, "The peasant dance is not one which is set absolutely according to rule; the dancer constructs his steps according to his mood and ingenuity." Collections of the Folk Music Research Group of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences, and the national Ethnographic Museum of the State Folk Ensemble cover almost 10,000 dance variations from 700 Hungarian villages. The Reformed Church in Hungary was opposed to dancing, but the Catholic Church was less restrictive. Some Catholic authors wrote of their approval of dancing, particularly in heaven. One early 16th-century nun who described that "dancing will be essential there for the strong, well-built bodies of the saints," while in the 18th century, Catholic priest wrote "There would have to be dancing (in heaven) for the itching soles of the Hungarian whose whole life on earth is a dancing school."

- La danse traditionnelle hongroise englobe non seulement le répertoire du territoire de la Hongrie actuelle, mais aussi celui des populations hongroises qui faisaient partie des anciens territoires de l'empire austro-hongrois, qu'on appelle parfois la Grande Hongrie. Il s'agit principalement de la Transylvanie (Roumanie actuelle), de la Voïvodine (Serbie actuelle), d'une petite partie de l'ouest de l'Ukraine, d'une grande partie de la Slovaquie et de la Croatie (ainsi que quelques villages aujourd'hui autrichiens). Du point de vue formel, le répertoire général des danses hongroises peut se diviser en quatre catégories :
* les rondes chantées de jeunes filles
* les danses solistes d'hommes
* les danses de couples lentes et rapides
* les danses avec accessoires, comme les danses de bergers. Historiquement, deux types de danses coexistent dans le répertoire :
* les danses de type ancien
* la ronde de jeunes filles (karikázó ou « faiseuse de cercles »)
* la csárdás en rond (ou körcsárdás)
* la magyar ou négyes (« hongroise » ou « à quatre »)
* les danses de bergers (kanásztánc ou danse des porchers, et botoló ou danse aux bâtons) et les danses guerrières (hajdútánc ou danse des haïdouks)
* les danses sautées ( et dus)
* les danses de garçons (legényes et ses variantes régionales, comme sűrű tempó, ritka tempó, pontozó, etc.)
* l'ancienne csárdás en couple (párostánc ou « danse de couple », forgatós ou « tournoyante », kettős ou « pas de deux »)
* les danses de style nouveau
* la csárdás lente et rapide, formée au XIXe siècle
* le verbunk (danse de recrutement d'hommes), apparu à la fin du XVIIIe siècle (fr)
