With Cardano Yoga Can Stretch Into the 21st Century

Believe it or not, Cardano’s technology can and should be a big part of the yoga industry. Yes that’s right. You may think, come on Nelson get serious. And I agree it may appear unbelievable or perhaps even a typo–it’s not. You might say, how in the world does yoga, an ancient philosophy and exercise relate to a 21st century technology like Cardano? If you guess nothing, perhaps you will be surprised as you read this post. As a practicing yogi and a Cardano enthusiast I too had doubts. Stretch out your yoga mat and meditate on Cardano as I explain.

The most recognized yoga teacher certification in the world is issued by the Yoga Alliance. Essentially, after completing 200 hours of yoga teacher training (YTT) from an accredited yoga school the student earns a yoga teacher certificate. After completing 500 hours from an accredited school the student earns a master teacher certificate, meaning the student is a teacher-of-teachers, provided the student has completed the required number of teaching hours. Follow me so far? Okay good. Well, just as every certificate, diploma, etc. from a university can be forged the same applies to certificates from the Yoga Alliance. Yoga studios, gyms, private clients could be victims of fake certifications. Unqualified teachers could lead to unnecessary injuries. Is there a solution or are we stuck in the downward dog position? Fortunately, there is a solution and it’s called Cardano.

Using the Cardano blockchain technology the Yoga Alliance could eliminate the threat of yoga teacher certificate forgeries. Essentially, Cardano can do for yoga what Cardano is doing for students in Ethiopia; creating a permanent unalterable record that proves the person is in fact a certified yoga instructor. The Cardano blockchain will assure potential yoga employers they are hiring legitimate instructors and that helps gyms and studios comply with insurance requirements. Risk managers will love it! Equally important students will have confidence in the instructor knowing he/she has earned the certificate. The quality of yoga goes up and everyone is better off because of Cardano’s technology.

Now do you agree Cardano should be part of yoga’s future? I suspect you. So let’s stay flexible with yoga but solid with the Cardano ecosystem.
