David Cushing Fuess

Nudged by his family background toward the U.S. Foreign Service, David Fuess started off studying Chinese language and history, but then took a U-turn toward East-influenced energy medicine. He studied under premier teachers, learning kundalini yoga from Yogi Bhajan, T’ai Chi Chih from its founder, Justin Stone, and acupuncture from Holly Guzman, Kikko Matsumoto and Ted katpchuk. He mastered advanced Polarity Therapy under Pierre Pannetier, the successor of Polarity’s founder, Dr. Randolph Stone, and is among a handful of persons authorized by Pannetier to teach.

A gifted teacher, David has taught throughout the United States and Europe as well as in Mexico, India, Australia, Japan, and Canada. He was a keynote speaker for ten years at the Body-Mind-Spirit Festivals in the United Kingdom and Australia, and took 3,000 people through pranayama breathing meditations at the World Peace Conference in Coimbatore, India.

He has pioneered and teaches a protocol that combines Polarity Therapy with acupuncture. By beginning and ending a healing session with Polarity approaches, he amplifies the healing power of the acupuncture treatment. (In a recent journal article, he explains exactly how it works.)

He has taught yoga to Japanese students at the base of Mount Fuji and to surfers at Baja California on the Millenium, as well as assisting cyclists at the Tour de France. He has lectured at Mata Amritananda Maya’s ashram and shaved the dying at Mother Theresa’s clinics in Calcutta.

A former editor and writer at the Well Street Journal, a health and consciousness newspaper, David is also an accomplished photographer with 24 one-man shows to his credit.
