If donning yoga pants sounds more exciting than being shoved into a satin dress this inauguration weekend, the Washington Ritz-Carlton may have an inaugural ball for you.

The Ritz-Carlton's Sports Club/LA and Yala Fitness have joined up and are hosting an inaugural fitness ball Saturday night, entitled the Living in America Inaugural Dance Party, headlined by Mya, who is best know as that chick who sang "Ghetto Superstar" in the '90s. Attendees will take part in a workout dance party, sip low-calorie cocktails and be treated to a fashion show with models sporting the newest styles by Lululemon.

The event is being held in honor of first lady Michelle Obama's "Let's Move" campaign. Tickets are $50 online, $75 at the door, and the party goes from 8:30 p.m. to midnight. According to event organizers, dress code is "cutest athletic wear."
