Helle Tyrsted Gotved née Rasmussen (1912–2006)[1] was a Danish gymnastics instructor and writer. From 1932, together with her husband Aage Gotved, she began to develop a new approach to gymnastics known as Gotved Gymanstics based on a combination of breathing, voice and physical exercise involving the natural movements of the body. From the mid-1950s, backed by her publications and radio programmes, her approach became popular throughout Denmark.[2][3] Instructors in Godved Gymnastics are still educated at the Gotved Institute which is named after her.
