Josefine Hökerberg: It feels like the emperor's new clothes

I'm pregnant and I have pain in the back. Pregnant yoga proposes the midwife.

There will be pilates instead. Gravidpilates. 920 kronor I pay for three times. I am happy and proud that I am doing something for myself.

We are four ladies on four bunks. An hour to breathe and to ”lift the baby up or down”. (Which is the same as goldeneye with bäckenmuskulaturen or relax, I will find out later.)

as if what she does is very important. Her whole tone and choice of words shows that this is something professionally that need to be taken seriously. ”Lift the baby up, then down again”

the Arm up. ”Excuse me I don't understand, what do I do when I lift the baby up? What is it?”

”You will understand the technology later. Maybe after two, three times,” she says.

this is a bit of a very advanced secret, I understand, ”and lift the baby up again”

with the rubber band. As I have done with the physical therapist and towards a door at home hundreds of times in the past.

Now, the escalation of the tone up. Now it is neuroscience.

”And your palms up. And the twitch again.” She takes this very seriously. Also, the participants seem to do it. It is the greatest silence. Shot. No play this.

We stretch the pages. Resting in the child's yogaposition. Then wiggle we are a little bit on the toes. ”Now you can take sprayflaskorna and a towel and wipe off the bunks.”

I look at the other. They have known something? All do the same. Spraying of the mattress, even though no one has sweated. Dries capable of with the towel. Are they happy, I wonder. They believe that they have been practicing, I'm wondering. This feels like the emperor's new clothes.

- an expression that has been developed in south America when you turn a blind eye to the truth and pretend that nothing is happening - and hope that the coach should not see on me what I think.

I go from there in awe. Is this a fantasy world? Are people in Stockholm, so here rich? Or are we just deceived.

Vick, vick, vicketi-vick. Three hundred crowns. It is a half sl card almost!
