Withings at SXSW

March 13, 2015

SXSW is a gathering of three festivals that come together in Austin, Texas. For two weeks technology and music take over the streets of Austin to provide an interactive experience unlike any other. This year, Withings is proud to be participating in some of the events, reminding attendees that health can be a key element in the midst of all the fun.

First up, we have the Activité Pop Dance Class:
Is your loneliness killing you? Are you missing the pop music from the good ol’ days? Join us for morning Activité Pop dance classes and learn all the moves to Britney Spears’ hit song “Oops! I Did It Again.” Use the Withings Activité Pop to track your moves as you learn to dance to some of the top 90’s pop songs.
When:
Sunday March 15, 9:30AM-10:30AM
Monday March 16, 9:30AM-10:30AM
Where:
W Hotel, 200 Lavaca Street, Austin, Texas 78701
Spots are limited so RSVP to: POPSXSW@Withings.com
Mashable House Silent Disco
The line for the Mashable House will stretch around the corner, but Withings will be there to make it worth your while. Want to burn some extra calories while you wait to get in? The Withings street team will be handing out Activité Pops, iPods and headphones to create a silent disco experience.
Our street teams will also be creating a similar experience inside, but with a slightly more competitive edge. We will be hosting a contest to see who can do the most number of steps inside the Mashable House. Step up your game for the chance to win an Activité Pop!
