Yoga at the Glyptotek
Thursday 28 August, 23 October and 20 November at 5 and 7 PM
The unique architecture of the Glyptotek with the Winter Garden as a lush focal point invites you to relaxation and contemplation.
“…I hope that in the winter the greenery can draw people in, and when they see the palms maybe they will also give some thought to the statues.” said the Glyptotek’s founder Carl Jacobsen in his opening speech in 1906, where he described the garden as a pleasurable point of entry to the works of art.
Nowadays, there is even more need for calm and contemplation. That's why you can now join us for yoga in the Central Hall, where you can take a well-deserved break surrounded by antique statues.
And who knows, when you're done with yoga, you might have renewed energy to take a look at some of the sculptures?
Remember to select the correct date and the desired time at checkout. The session at 5.00-6.30 pm will be in Danish. The session at 7.00-8.30 pm will be in English.

For everybody
Yoga at the Glyptotek is for anyone who wants to connect their body with their breath and shed positive light on body and mind. The session is open to both beginners and people who already have experience with yoga.
About the teacher
Teacher Joséphine Renard has over twenty years of experience with yoga and has been teaching since 2014. Her approach is grounded in an inclusive philosophy: yoga is for most people whether you can touch your toes or not, are living with injuries, or carry a bit of extra weight. Her classes create a safe and supportive space where you’re invited to land in your body and explore it through movement and breath with curiosity, care, and presence.
