SAVANNAH, Ga. (WSAV) -- The battle against childhood obesity inspired one group to get kids off the couch and moving.
The UniverSoul Circus has teamed up with Project Rock Out! to encourage kids to exercise and families to live healthier lifestyles. They brought the program to the West Broad Street YMCA Tuesday.
But in addition to the serious message, they also wanted to make sure everyone had fun.
"To set a great example for the children... Don't smoke, don't drink, to stay straight. Learn... Get all the education that you can," said Onionhead the Clown from UniverSoul Circus.
Project Rock Out to Work Out also aims to promote physical fitness through hip hop.
Several performers from the circus were on hand for the event. They'll be doing shows in Savannah Thursday through Saturday.
