Overview – Yogasana Ranking System (YRS)

The Yogasana Ranking System (YRS) is a structured digital framework developed to standardize competition ranking, scoring, and results in yogasana as a professional sport. Designed for district, state, national, and international yoga competitions, YRS establishes a transparent and consistent yoga ranking system that defines how yoga competitions are judged, how yogasana points are calculated, and how athlete performance is measured within league-based and professional competition formats.

By introducing a performance-based, data-driven ranking methodology, YRS supports yoga sports leagues, professional yoga competitions, and structured pathways such as the Yogasana Premier League (YPL), while remaining applicable beyond a single league. The system enables fair evaluation, measurable progression, and long-term tracking of athletes, helping build a clear career pathway in yoga sports from students to elite professional yogasana players.

Ranking Framework & Methodology

The Yogasana Ranking System is built on a structured mathematical evaluation model developed by Dr. Abhinav Joshi, designed to assess yogasana performance through clearly defined and measurable parameters. The ranking framework focuses on technical execution, difficulty, and consistency, ensuring that rankings reflect sustained competitive performance rather than isolated results.

The system evaluates performance using key components such as:

  • Intensity Score – Reflects the difficulty level of asanas performed

  • Stability Score – Measures posture control, balance, and holding duration

  • Performance-based Adjustments – Rankings update based on competitive outcomes

  • Moving Average Logic – Ensures rankings represent consistent performance across multiple competitions

This approach is designed to minimize subjectivity and support merit-based ranking in competitive yogasana.

How the Yogasana Ranking System Works

YRS operates through a two-tier ranking structure for individual players and teams, with rankings updated continuously based on official competition participation.

1. Player Ranking System

Individual yogasana athletes are ranked on a 0–1000 point scale, determined by:

  • Quality of asana execution, intensity, and stability

  • Performance against higher- or lower-ranked opponents

  • Participation in YRS-certified competitions and open challenges

  • Penalties or deductions for imbalance, instability, or incorrect execution

  • Consistency of performance across multiple events

This structure encourages regular participation and progressive improvement.

2. Team Ranking System

Yogasana teams are ranked on a 0–100 point scale, based on:

  • Combined rankings and performance of team members

  • Match results and win-loss outcomes against other teams

  • Overall consistency and stability of team performance

Team rankings are influenced by both individual excellence and collective consistency.

Ranking Progression: Moving Up or Down

Ranking Advancement

Athletes and teams can improve their rankings by:

  • Performing higher-intensity asanas with precision

  • Demonstrating strong stability and holding control

  • Achieving positive results against higher-ranked opponents

  • Maintaining consistent performance across competitions

Ranking Decline

Rankings may decline due to:

  • Losses against lower-ranked opponents

  • Technical errors or instability during performance

  • Inactivity over extended periods

  • Repeated penalties or performance inconsistencies

This dynamic structure ensures rankings remain current and performance-driven.

Why the Yogasana Ranking System Matters

The Yogasana Ranking System plays a critical role in the professionalization of yoga sports by offering:

  • A standardized yoga sports ranking system

  • Transparent scoring & results accessible to stakeholders

  • Structured evaluation aligned with yoga competition rules

  • A measurable career roadmap for yogasana athletes

  • Support for league systems, trials, and professional competitions

By providing clarity, consistency, and credibility, YRS strengthens competitive yogasana and supports its growth as a modern, organized sport.
