Axe is a musical movement that is very popular throughout Latin America. It had its beginnings in the Brazilian state of Bahía, in the early 1980s but became much more popular in the following decade.
Why is the Axé music? In all axé choreography, sensual and provocative movements are made with the shoulders, pelvis and hips. These movements, in turn, are fused with the basic steps of other musical movements such as the reggae, samba and frevo Achieving a spectacular combination!
-Interesting fact: more and more people are replacing their aerobics en Gyms traditional (with bicycle, elliptical and treadmill) by axé music classes . After just a few classes, they feel much more cheerful and energized!
