what are some fantastic exercises for the butt and hips?

Question by Ashley: what are some fantastic exercises for the butt and hips? I have an hourglass shaped body, but I'm a little ashamed of it because my cousins are skinny and I feel like the only chunky one. I am a little chubby and my butt has some dimples. I wear a size 10/11 in pants. My mom suggested laser cellulite removal to boost my self esteem, but I would rather work it off myself. What are some good exercises for the lower half of my body? I recently started doing Thai Chi and it makes my legs sore, and I have started walking again to pick up my sister from school, it is 3 miles there and back home. I want to have a nice swimsuit body for summer. So any tips will be great. Thanks. Best answer:
