Pretzel
Pretzel was born in Hungary and studied gymnastics as a young girl and was a dancer for 14 years. Later in life she became so flexible that she developed the reputation of being a pretzel, and her name followed. After moving to the United States she was introduced to yoga and became deeply involved in its practice and philosophy. She obtained her teaching credential and eventually opened Pretzel's Yoga & Pilates studio in San Francisco. After 16 years of providing classes and teacher training to the community, she changed the name of the school to Yoga Fountain as an expression of her passion for swimming and as a metaphor for the flow of yoga asanas.

Brandy
Brandy has been practicing yoga with mentors in a variety of traditions for well over a decade. She was inspired by the balance, beauty, and stillness of yoga that she left her corporate job in early 2009 to travel to India to deepen her yoga practice and get her yoga teacher certification. Brandy has been teaching yoga asana classes and sharing her practice ever since that transformative experience. She is a seeker; forever a student, she continues to learn and be inspired by her students, her teachers, and the eight limbs of yoga.
