OLUP150YTT Post Graduate Yoga Teacher Training (Online)
A Yoga Australia and Yoga Alliance Approved Training Course
Post Graduate Yoga Training in Integrative Lifestyle Medicine
BIYOME’s 150-hour Post Graduate Yoga Teacher Training programme is designed for qualified yoga teachers seeking to upgrade their existing Yoga Australia qualification and advance their professional registration pathway. This advanced yoga training provides the opportunity to deepen your knowledge of yoga philosophy, biomedical science, and specialised teaching methods while developing the skills to integrate yoga and meditation into your own life and the lives of your students.
Through three chosen areas of specialisation, you will expand your ability to understand the human body, mind, and individual needs, allowing you to create personalised yoga practices rather than simply deliver classes. This postgraduate yoga teacher training develops your capacity to teach with greater depth, precision, and confidence, offering students a more informed, therapeutic, and transformative yoga experience.
Designed to be completed within 12 months, this flexible programme supports your continued growth as an advanced yoga teacher.

What You Will Walk Away With
Upon completion of this 150-hour Yoga Teacher Training upgrade, you will develop the advanced skills and confidence to deliver informed, therapeutic, and engaging yoga classes for students with diverse physical, mental, and emotional needs. This programme provides in-depth knowledge of biomedical yoga, alignment principles, therapeutic teaching methods, and evidence-based practices, enabling you to communicate current research, provide safe touch adjustments, and use yoga props to enhance body awareness and nervous system regulation.
Through dedicated practice and advanced training, you will learn to cultivate proprioceptive and interoceptive awareness in your students, supporting greater connection between breath, mind, and body. As a BIYOME-trained teacher, you will be equipped to integrate meditation through yoga asana, facilitate states of presence and flow, and guide students towards a deeper, more transformative experience of yoga grounded in both ancient wisdom and modern science.
BIYOME’s Yoga Teacher Training courses provide a pathway to becoming a certified yoga teacher, with graduates eligible to apply for registration with both Yoga Australia and Yoga Alliance International.
Upon graduation, BIYOME certification enables you to apply for membership with either organisation, offering internationally recognised yoga teaching credentials. Both Yoga Australia and Yoga Alliance International uphold professional standards in yoga teacher training and provide recognised membership pathways for teachers worldwide.
Yoga Australia is highly regarded throughout Australia and the United Kingdom, while Yoga Alliance International offers a global registration pathway for teachers seeking international recognition and professional membership.
BIYOME’s 150‑hour Yoga Teacher Training upgrade allows you to extend your existing qualifications by an additional 150 hours, bringing you closer to your desired level of Yoga Teacher Training and enabling you to obtain insurance to teach yoga worldwide.
What You Will Learn
Each of the three specialty intensive training electives you select provides an immersive learning experience combining theoretical knowledge, practical application, and advanced teaching methodologies. Through this postgraduate yoga training, you will deepen your understanding of the Ancient Science of Yoga, Western biomedical science, and the integration of these two approaches to support modern yoga practice and wellbeing. Each specialty intensive elective develops your expertise through:
- Yoga philosophy and integrative practice, exploring the relationship between Eastern yogic traditions and Western biomedical perspectives, and their relevance to contemporary yoga teaching.
- Physiology, neuroscience, and mind-body connection, including an understanding of neurobiology, neuroplasticity, and the physiological states associated with advanced yoga and meditation practices.
- Psychology and behavioural science, examining the relationship between yoga, meditation, mental wellbeing, and modern psychological approaches.
- Practical teaching methodology, providing immersive experience in the foundations, applications, sequencing, and delivery of each chosen specialty.
Through this advanced yoga teacher training, you will gain the knowledge and confidence to apply evidence-informed practices, understand the deeper mechanisms behind yoga and meditation, and deliver specialised teachings that support the individual needs of your students.
