David Hulse
C.V.S.M.T. — Founder of SomaEnergetics
For five decades a motivational speaker and researcher across metaphysics, science, sound, and spirituality, David's rare gift for synthesis — gathering scattered fragments of truth and bringing them into a single, coherent focus — became the catalyst for everything that has followed. At the turn of the century, his research into the lost tones of the Ancient Solfeggio marked the beginning of SomaEnergetics — today one of the world's most beloved vibrational healing methods.
David came to describe these sacred frequencies as a vibrational bridge — a way to re-integrate the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual, within a person and, collectively, within us all.
That bridge became SomaEnergetics.
A Fork in the Road
It began with DNA. David had come across a claim that biochemists were using a single frequency — 528 Hz — to help repair it. That thread led him to an ancient set of six tones known as the Solfeggio. When he held the first set of tuning forks made to those exact frequencies, he knew his life was about to change.
The techniques arrived the way the frequencies had — one insight at a time. At an early event, a woman traveled from New York, certain she was meant to have David use the forks on her. He'd never done it before, so they simply agreed to “play.” That afternoon became the very first SomaEnergetics technique. By 2000, a practice was born.
“We are the children of the same universe.”
David believed the sacred tones connect us — not only to ourselves, but to one another.
Two decades of building sound therapy
SomaEnergetics grew the old-fashioned way — David, alongside his life partner and Soma's other half, Tim Leach, traveling state by state, expo by expo, one connection at a time. What began as a seven-page handout became a full curriculum: the first formal class was held in 2001, and from there the courses evolved into a complete, nationally board-approved certification path in Vibrational Sound Therapy, eligible for continuing-education credits. Formats changed with the times — from live workshops to fully online — but the heart never did: precise, hand-tuned forks you can pick up anywhere, anytime, to help someone feel more whole. Along the way, tens of thousands of practitioners around the world folded these frequencies into their own healing work.
A legacy, carried forward
For over two decades, David Hulse and Tim Leach pioneered a gentler, more integrative way to heal — and a whole community grew up around it.
In 2023, he passed the torch to Chyla Walsh and Coby Cranman, the new stewards of the SomaEnergetics community. The mission is unchanged: to share the power of sound and vibration, help people return to wholeness, and to keep making tools worthy of the people who use them.
David's own journey continues, too — today he teaches through his newest venture, the Academy for Spiritual Awakening.
Stay tuned.
