Testimonials

"In this outstanding opus, Michael takes the reader through a careful explanation and examination of what makes breathwork such an immensely powerful tool and how to harness that potential. From taking biological processes and making them accessible to the non-scientifically educated person, to connecting dots between natural patterns and complex human physiology, to illustrating the depths to which the ancients esteemed breath with quotes from classical texts, and finally breaking down the progressions and purpose behind Systema breathwork practices, The Breath is the Work is one of those books that a serious student of health, high performance, healing, and humanity will read over and over and over again, discovering something new & valuable with each & every encounter."
Dr. Mark Chengformer Black Belt Magazine Contributing Editor, StrongFirst Master SFG Instructor https://www.drmarkcheng.com/
“Michael has trained privately with me in Systema for over ten years and has a broad background in other martial arts. His experience in military operations and executive protection allowed him to immediately see the value of Systema. As a bodyguard, he directly applies Systema as part of his job, which gives him a unique perspective on the practical applications of Systema. I highly recommend training with Michael.”

“Michael is the best Tai Chi instructor I have ever met."
Ben S. 30 year Tai Chi player, tradtional Chinese martial artist and teacher
“Mr. Muckin has a unique combination of knowledge and skills that encompass advanced protective strategies and highly effective self-defense skills. Many folks know how to fight and fight well - but the real goal is not needing to fight when you are providing protection. Michael's deep understanding of the adversary's mindset and motives are evident and have proven effective time and time again."
CSCExecutive Protection Client
“Michael is a highly skilled martial arts instructor. He has a wide background, having trained in among other arts, Kali (Filipino martial arts) with Dan Inosanto, and Systema, under Martin Wheeler and Vladimir Vasiliev. He has trained under the absolute best in their fields, and it is reflected in Michael’s skill and knowledge. Michael is an excellent teacher as well as practitioner”
