Yoga at the Glyptotek is open to anyone who wishes to explore and connect with their body and breath. No previous yoga experience is required, and you choose how you want to take part.
18 June at 5 & 7 PM
“…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?
The ticket gives access to the Glyptotek all day, where you can explore the collections and special exhibitions.
Instructor Joséphine Renard has practiced yoga for over twenty years and has been teaching since 2014. Her approach is that yoga can be adapted to each individual, regardless of experience, body, or range of movement. She focuses on creating a safe and supportive space where there is room to be in your body and to sense it through movement and breath. You can read more about Joséphine on renard.nu
The session at 5.00-6.30 pm will be in Danish.
The session at 7.00-8.30 pm will be in English.
Arrive well in advance, so you have time to lock your belongings in the cloakroom.
There are yoga mats to borrow in the Central Hall, so all you have to do is show up in comfortable clothes you can move in.
You may bring a water bottle, if it is transparent and max. 0,5 l. Alternatively, water will be provided in the Central Hall.
Please note that it is not permitted to bring your own yoga mat, and that there are no changing facilities at the museum.
