David
Coulter received a Ph. D. in anatomy from the University of Tennessee
Center for the Health Sciences in 1968. From 1968 to 1986 he taught
various microscopic, neuroscience, and elementary gross anatomy courses
in the Department of Anatomy of the University of Minnesota (Medical
School) in Minneapolis, MN. During that period he also served as a
principal investigator for neuroscience research funded by the National
Institutes of Health and the National Science Foundation. He next
taught in the Department of Anatomy and Cell Biology at Columbia
University College of Physicians & Surgeons (1986 to 1988), and
since then has practiced and taught a style of bodywork called
Ohashiatsu® in New York City and elsewhere. Dr. Coulter has
been practicing yoga since 1974. He was initiated by Swami Veda
(formerly Dr. Usharbudh Arya of Minneapolis, MN), trained under Swami
Rama from 1975 to 1996, and studied under Pandit Rajmani Tigunait at
the Himalayan Institute since 1988. From the inception of his interest
in yoga, Dr. Coulter has been committed to correlating his
understanding of the practices of that discipline with accepted
principles of biomedical science.
