Board Members

our board members

dave terzian

Dave brings a seasoned perspective to our co-op, where he is excited to be serving as both President of our Board and a core teacher. As an entrepreneur and investor, he created several businesses during his professional career. As he likes to describe his entrepreneurial journey, he made a lot of money, and also lost a lot of money, and he is very grateful to the Universe for having ended up nicely ahead. When not teaching yoga, Dave serves as an Entrepreneur-in Residence at Georgetown University's McDonough School of Business, where he mentors both undergraduate and MBA students.

stacy hartranft

Stacy is the co-manager of the studio and VP of our Board. When she's not in a yoga class, she enjoys long walks so when you need a walking partner, let her know! You choose the route and the pace and she's happy to tag along. Stacy's favorite yoga poses are pincha and handstand. Stacy is the proud mom of two twenty-somethings.

lee altobello

Lee is a co-manager and Secretary of our Board. She began her yoga journey over 15 years ago while training for triathlon. She loves all things paper and stationery, and recently “retired” from her invitation business after 25 years. Now Lee enjoys her time on long power walks, staying curious by listening to audiobooks, as well as crushing the daily crossword puzzle with a cappuccino. She and her husband are recent empty nesters (their three boys all live in the DC area) and together love to travel and make homemade pizzas in their wood fired oven for friends and family.

jojo wang

Jojo is one of our PFY core teachers and serves as Treasurer of our Board. She is originally from China and has lived in the DMV area since 2009. She is a numbers lady during the day and yoga teacher/student at night. When she is not in class, she loves gardening with her husband Sean and cooking garden to table for the family. She also enjoys her time with their cat Sesame and dog Portobella (Bella).

charlotte larson

Charlotte, who retired as an OB/GYN to raise her three boys, now grown, was an on again off again yogi until the pandemic when online classes became a daily refuge. When Potomac Flow opened, the abundance of amazing teachers and supportive community inspired her to take her yoga to a new level. When she's not in the studio, you can find Charlotte on the tennis courts or hiking with her two big mutts.

connie hwang

Connie is in her “happy place” when practicing yoga with the PFY community. Outside the studio, she is a physician executive focused on improving access to care, clinical outcomes and health equity. Connie is the proud mom of two teenage boys who are accomplished Pokemon & Fortnite competitors. When not at home proudly serving as a PFY Board Member, she enjoys traveling the world with her family and friends.

gail allen

Gail, in her “previous life,” was an Employment and Labor lawyer. Now, she is an experienced Yoga Instructor and teaches here as a core teacher at PFY. When she’s not practicing yoga, Gail loves to travel, hike, play with her feisty puppy and spend time with her family and friends.

paul bran

Paul is a part-time commercial bankruptcy and litigation attorney who spends much of his free time playing drums in a classic hard rock band and practicing yoga.

sara clash-drexler

Sara is the past president of our Board and one of our PFY core teachers. Although her desire to make a difference in the world drove her to civil rights law as a career, Sara is happiest when she is moving. She loves hiking, backpacking, rock climbing, biking, running, dancing, and of course finding new ways and new places to balance on her hands. On a good day, you may find her doing one or more of these with her husband and kids. Some days, they kick her butt, and some days she kicks theirs – all part of her life plan for staying young in body, mind, and spirit.
