The Yoga Revolution Academy Experience
Our Philosophy
We believe the Heart of Yoga is to grow as an individual, to live more fully through your own integrity, and love yourself unconditionally by unifying mind, body and spirit.
Through our teacher training program, feel yourself vitally connected to your guiding light, to the inspiration of the natural world around you, and to the beautiful souls you meet along the way.
Explore your spiritual essence, awaken into the profound energy within you, and open into your deepest expression of Self, embodying your fullest authenticity through yoga as your greatest gift to the world.
Anabel Miranda
Program Founder & Director
Born in Panama with a unique blend of Chinese and Ngobe indigenous heritage, Anabel’s yoga teaching journey began in New York in 2007, where a class with Sri Dharma Mittra at his studio in Manhattan instilled a spark in her heart that grows with each passing day. Building on her existing vinyasa yoga practice and early years of exposure to Eastern traditions of meditation and martial arts, Anabel completed her 200-YTT with her beloved teacher in Barcelona in 2009.
Anabel continues to practice, learn and teach yoga internationally. After receiving an Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine certification in Costa Rica in 2013 and a 500-hour YTT certification from Jivani Yoga School in Thailand in 2014, she now leads annual yoga teacher trainings and with her Yoga Revolution Academy in Costa Rica and retreats around the world.
Supporting Teacher
Meet the teachers for Yoga Revolution Academy's teacher training program. Each with a unique background and wealth of experience which promotes a very well rounded and diverse teaching experience.
Mike Textor D.C. has been in practice since 1995, originally licensed from California, and has spent the last 10 years here in Costa Rica where he has received a licenciatura from the University of Costa Rica. Mike specializes in a treatment approach known as soft tissue mobilization, which through active movements helps to restore normal resting length of chronically shortened soft tissue (ie. tissue other than bone: muscle, tendon, connective tissue, etc.). This process can dramatically improve range of motion and reduce chronic pain. In addition, Mike utilizes diversified chiropractic manipulation, if indicated, to further restore mobility. Now as a part of the Yoga Revolution Academy program, he will be leading the trainees into basic anatomy knowledge needed to safely offer yoga and movement classes, embodied anatomy, structural knowledge of major joints, and much more. Mike has also previously been a member of the medical staff for the association of surfing professionals (ASP), the association of volleyball professionals (AVP), Long Beach Ice Dogs (IHL hockey), as well as the Ballet Pacifica in southern California. In addition to post graduate training in sports medicine, Mike has extensive experience working with athletes and those with chronic pain.
