Malevo resources

Malevo is an Argentinian dance company that re-imagines Malambo, a classic Argentinian folkloric dance. The ensemble blends traditional Malambo techniques with flamenco dance and live percussion, offering audiences a breathtaking multi-sensory experience deeply rooted in Argentinian culture.

Malevo was created by director, choreographer, and dancer Matías Jaime. The company has performed in festivals and venues worldwide, including Juste Pour Rire and Le Incroyable (Canada), La France a un Incroyable Talent (France), Global Village (Dubai), Santa Lucía Festival (Mexico), Lollapalooza (Argentina), Dance Open (Russia), Gastronomic Culinary Festival (Spain), Montecarlo Anniversary 22 Historique Rally (Monte-Carlo), Festival de Circo (Argentina), Cirque du Soleil (Las Vegas, USA), and Norwegian Cruise Line.

Malevo reached the semi-finals of America’s Got Talent and filmed a television special called Malevo Has Talent. The ensemble has also choreographed dances for Latin pop sensation Ricky Martin and Universal Studios in Osaka, Japan. The company also runs the Malevo Art Factory, a global online platform for teaching dances, including Malambo and other disciplines.
