dance aerobics

In support of First Lady Michelle Obama's Let's Move campaign — an initiative to help get America's children healthier through fitness and improved diets — Beyoncé recently rolled out her "Let's Move" music video to schools across the country to encourage students to learn the entire dance routine and perform it on May 3 in a "dance off."

Meanwhile, yesterday at the White House, Mrs. Obama boogied down with 80 children of National Guardsmen and reservists during a Let's Move fitness and nutrition event for military families. Although this isn't the first time we've seen the first lady show off her Beyoncé dance moves. Who can blame her? Dance aerobics are so hot right now because they are fun and a great overall workout — as evidenced by the large selection of dance workouts available today. Maybe that's why so many celebs are into Zumba.

Here's Beyoncé's original "Let's Move" video that's getting everyone dancing!

We are pumped to share one of our fave stories from Self here on FitSugar!

We recently grilled Gwyneth Paltrow's trainer Tracy Anderson about how Gwyneth gets her super-hot Glee body. But Anderson also trains the soon-to-be married Jessica Simpson, who is working out in advance of her upcoming wedding.

And while fitness junkie Paltrow does Anderson's program six days a week — religiously! — Simpson is ramping up slowly, starting with four days a week.

So how is Anderson whipping 30-year-old Simpson into shape?
