Come hungry to enjoy a traditional Argentinian BBQ.
Malambo is a traditional dance done by Argentine gauchos that involves a sustained tapping of the feet. During the 19th century, Malambo was the battleground for gauchos to prove their dance prowess and vigor. Pit fires, local parties, and 'payadas' were good excuses for dancers to show off. Top dancers gained recognition due to the difficulty of their dance movements.
The dance itself is characterized by a dancer performing a series of foot movements in a minimal area. These are called 'mudanzas'. In itself, these taps against the floor complement many other dances, but in Malambo, they are the dance itself. It is a one-of-a-kind dance and truly Argentinian.
These steps are performed with background music; usually a guitar and a drum, and the music takes no precedence over the dance.
