FILED UNDER: Personal Health, exercise, Let's Move Campaign, Michelle Obama

Those arms, that style, it must be … Michelle Obama grooving to Beyonce while promoting her “Let’s Move” campaign. (We promise this is the last of Beyonce on CommonHealth for a while!)

Check out this ABC News video of the First Lady at the Alice Deal Middle School in DC yesterday showing the tweens how its done. (It’s hard to imagine Laura Bush, or Hillary Clinton for that matter, doing the “Dougie” or the “Running Man” with such authority…)
