daniel burgess
cofounder & instructor
Daniel’s path runs in parallel to Thuy’s, shaped by a different geography but a shared devotion. His journey took him through years of international travel and study, eventually leading to a close apprenticeship with Liu Ming of Da Yuan Circle, a respected teacher of Chinese cosmology. Through this work, Daniel developed a deep and disciplined understanding of Chinese astrology and Feng Shui, grounded in how cosmological patterns are observed, interpreted, and lived over time. Daniel would go on to learn Chinese medical massage, or Tui Na, from Brian O’Dea and Jason Frye.
Like Thuy, Daniel holds a lifelong commitment to the depths of healing, paired with a strong orientation toward making that depth accessible, grounded, and human.
Together, their lives, studies, practices, and questions have converged into Folks Healing.
