I'm assuming that you're talking about dance and that the move you call an axle is the same move I call an axle lol.

Basically, just a brief breakdown of the step (on the right side) that might help you:
-Do a chaine turn with your legs bent in plie
-Immediately after finishing this turn, use the momentum you gained to pick up your right leg and tuck it up to your butt and then jump up off your left leg while making a complete turn in the air

Here's a link of a girl doing an axle. It's not very good or high, but it should give you a clear picture of the footwork.

Now, an Axel as in Dance terms, or Figure Skating terms? Im guessing Dance, but, I just want to make sure.

well, no one is going to be able to answer this using words, Einstein. Maybe you should ask about something that gets your small brain working harder, like math.

i dont know what an axle is in dance...only figure skating...sorry...
