YOGA AND PILATES TEACHER TRAINING • MELBOURNE, SYDNEY AND KOH SAMUI

One’s Yoga and Pilates Teacher Trainings all run in three phases

1. Online pre-learning builds the theoretical foundation across anatomy, history, philosophy, business and teaching methodology. 

2. 30 Self Practice Hours completed with a complimentary membership to One’s Melbourne or Sydney studios, or at a studio of your choice, prior to the face to face component.  

3. An in-person intensive or part-time component in either Melbourne, Sydney or Koh Samui; movement labs, teaching practice and live assessment.

ONLINE LEARNING - CLOUD CAMPUS

One’s Cloud Campus is exceptional, and one subject is open to access right now, free, so you can experience it for yourself before you commit.

Complete this online subject and go on to enrol in the Certificate Course, and those hours are formally credited towards your Certificate. 

START HERE. IT COUNTS.

The subject is Teaching Methodology; One’s foundational framework for what separates a practitioner from a teacher: how you structure a class, how you read a room, and what actually keeps students coming back. It’s the same module across both Yoga and Pilates pathways, because the principles of great teaching don’t change with the modality.

PERSONAL PRACTICE HOURS

Both Yoga and Pilates 200 Hour Certifications require a minimum of 30 hours of practice in the six months prior to the face to face component of the Yoga or Pilates Teacher Training. Enrolled students receive a complimentary membership to One’s Melbourne or Sydney studios to complete these hours, or can practise at a studio of their choice.

The Pilates pathway requires an additional 20 hours of self-led practice teaching.

One’s students complete their practice hours inside a studio that runs busy group classes every day. This matters! Trainees enrolled in programs not attached to a working studio regularly contact One requesting observation time, teaching practice access and teacher trainee class passes, because their own programs can’t provide it. One’s trainees have it from enrolment.

PRE-LEARNING HOURS

Allow up to 30 hours for the Online component of the pre-learning, though this varies person to person. Over the 3 months prior to the in-person component of trainings, usually 2 to 3 hours per week is sufficient.

Self Practice hours can be comfortably completed by attending 2 to 3 classes per week in the 3 months prior.

A mandatory reading list runs alongside both the online and in-person components.
