This is either willfully ignorant statement or simply malicious thought to discredit Yoga from it's ancient roots. A blog post of cherry-picked, unsourced comments doesn't prove that modern Yoga poses are Swedish.

Yoga is a ancient system and like many systems in the orient, it is quite malleable and has been modernized with time. There are many aspects of Yoga and merely reducing it to "certain body poses" and claiming it's Swedish, is cultural appropriation at it's finest.
