Who is this Training For?

This course is for You if?

You’ve been practicing for a while and feel like it’s time to take your yoga next level — on and off the mat.

You feel a bit lost and want to get strong, focused, and clear — in your body, your mindset, and your purpose.

You’re curious about teaching, but even if you never teach a class, you know this will change your life.

You are an existing PT, Pilates Instructor, Dance Teacher, Coach, Chiro, Physio etc. looking for additional tools to support your people and attract new ones.

You want the science and structure behind yoga — not guesswork or generic sequences.

You care about people and want to help them feel better, live better, and break out of stress cycles.

You’re ready to do the work — and show up for yourself consistently.

You’re looking for real community, not just a training – people who will challenge you, support you, and walk alongside you.

It's probably NOT for You if?

You’re not open to feedback, new ideas, or being coached to your edge.

You think yoga is just stretching and chill music.

You’re not willing to practice what you preach — or take responsibility for your growth.

You don’t have the capacity to commit to 13 weeks of structured training — including weekends in-studio.

E-RYT 500 | Studio Founder | Industry Speaker

Meet Your Lead Trainer – Karl Palin

After suffering burnout during 2013 in the corporate world as an IT project manager, Karl turned to yoga as a last resort. What started as a personal escape and restorative practice for his competitive fitness regime, became a life calling to serve others in the mental health and spiritual space. He founded One Big Heart in 2017 with a mission to help people build stronger bodies and clearer minds through the power of yoga.

Since then, Karl has:

Built OBH into Australia’s National Studio of the Year.

Coached, mentored and trained 100's of teachers.

Spoken Internationally on mental health, wellness and yoga across corporate and legal sectors.

Held 10 years of certification and over 10,000 classes and life-changing workshops.

What makes Karl different?

Karl is one of only 192, E-RYT500 Registered teachers Australia wide. He cuts through the fluff to produce strong teachers. His teaching blends modern science with yogic wisdom, and he’s passionate about helping you find your voice — not just mimic someone else’s.

Whether you’re here to become a teacher or dive deep into self-growth, Karl will guide you with clarity, strength, and a whole lot of heart.

Do I have to want to become a yoga teacher to do this course?

Not at all. About half of our students take this course for personal growth. You’ll deepen your physical practice, learn how to manage stress, build resilience and walk away with clarity on who you are and what you want from life.

My practice isn't very advanced, am I ready for this?

Flexibility is not a prerequisite nor is an advanced level of practice— it’s a result of the work. This course is designed for real people with real bodies. You’ll build strength, mobility, and understanding in a supportive environment. By the time you are complete, your practice will be far advanced.

What happens if I miss a day of the training?

Life happens — we get it. While we expect full attendance, there are options to make up time via additional assignments, in-person catch-up's or online review. Speak to the lead facilitator if something unexpected arises.

Is this course accredited?

Yes. One Big Heart is a Registered Yoga School (RYS) with International Yoga Alliance , meaning your 200HR certificate is internationally recognised and you're getting the best education around.

How do the in-person training weekends work?

Delivered across three 4-day intensives, on the first weekend of each month. These run Thursday to Sunday, 6:00am–4:00pm, at our Camden studio. You’ll need to organise time off work for those dates in advance. These intensives are immersive and powerful — expect a blend of practice, theory, group work, and mentoring. They are a core part of your certification requirements, so attendance is essential.

How much home study is required?

We recommend setting aside 2–3 hours per week for online learning and reading. The portal is designed to be digestible and practical. Total home study is 40 hours over three months.

Are payment plans available?

Yes. We offer flexible payment plans over a three month period and honour the early bird pricing as long as your payment plan is started before the early bird deadline.

What style of yoga will I be learning to teach?

Primarily Vinyasa Yoga — you will graduate with a full understanding of the 90-minute "OBH Power Sequence" so future class planning becomes a breeze. We also cover Yin elements, Breathwork and Guided Meditation so you graduate with a well-rounded teaching skill set.

Are payment plans available?

Yes. We offer flexible payment plans over a three month period and honour the early bird pricing as long as your payment plan is started before the early bird deadline.
