Rick Massar

Rick Massar had the good fortune of being introduced to Qigong (which directly translates to “energy work") through his many years of Chinese martial arts training. As a 7th-degree black belt and master of Shaolin Kempo, it was necessary to train and cultivate internal and external energy to achieve true “balance”. He is currently spending his “retirement “ living in Tucson and working as a certified group fitness instructor and personal trainer at his local YMCA. They have a regular group of about 25 people in his Qigong class. Rick has been married for 40 years to his beautiful wife, and they have 2 grown sons, 1 dog, and a brand new grandson. At this stage of life, for him, it’s all about giving back! His certifications include 7th-degree black belt/master Shaolin Kempo, Qigong/BaDuaJin instructor, ACE-certified group fitness instructor, and ACE/YMCA personal trainer.
