The next step is to touch the ball of your foot forward, turning your heel in so as to show your inner thigh, shimmying your shoulders. You then spice it up by pretending to beat on drums as you go in each direction. Still keeping in time to the music, take three steps to the side, and then turn, go back. You can really get into this one, sinuous and sexy, arms moving and hips swinging.

ThereвЂ™s a nice Samba move where you learn the basic Samba dance, stepping forward, turning the toes out, and then back. Always you return to the Brazilian March. The Warm Up includes a number of other steps and moves, from the sideways step with scooping arm motions to mini-side lunges that you bounce in and of, shaking your booty and swinging your arms overhead. ItвЂ™s a high energy march, where you pick the knees up high and open them to the side with each step, so that you show the inner thigh, working your arms in time to the tempo and moving your hips so as to help your knees swing out wide when you raise them. The Warm Up opens with the Brazilian March, which is the fundamental glue that holds the whole Cardio Axe workout together. If youвЂ™re just beginning, you can gently sway your hips, move at the same speed as Leandro but not push yourself as hard if youвЂ™re ready for a much tougher workout, than really try to enjoy the moves, throwing yourself into them, moving your shoulders and hips, bringing your knees high and just having a blast as you burn up those calories while dancing up a storm. The workout is a little under thirty minutes long, and whatвЂ™s great about it is that you can put as much energy or as little into it as you like. Because thatвЂ™s whatвЂ™s brilliant about this workout: itвЂ™s composed of four extended combos that Leandro teaches you, and then you have to link them together so that by the end youвЂ™re performing what feels like a high energy, challenging dance routine, combining samba with twists and spins, always dancing and moving to the rhythm of the music.

The music is infectious, the moves are fun, and it becomes a challenge to link all the comboвЂ™s together and perform them all as quickly and as smoothly as Leandro Carvalho does on the screen.

This workout is by far my favorite Brazilian Butt Lift workout.
