Joining forces to fight childhood obesity, Michelle Obama and Beyonce have teamed up for the Let’s Move campaign and orchestrated a nationwide flash mob.

Middle school students throughout the country participated in a special workout event on Tuesday, May 3. Using an instructional video that was recorded by Beyonce, educators were encouraged to use the session as an opportunity to underscore the importance of physical activity as part of a healthy lifestyle for children.

The First Lady said: “This is a passion. This is my mission. I am determined to work with folks across this country to change the way a generation of kids thinks about food and nutrition.”

The event was coordinated by the National Association of Broadcasters Education Foundation. “We can think of no greater gift to America than keeping our school children healthy,” said NABEF President Marcellus Alexander.
