Michael Rossi

Mike is an incredibly important member of our team. Mike is The Complete Combatant's Chief Operating Range Officer, Head Assistant Instructor, and is also a Range Safety Officer
We have all heard the story, I started shooting when I was a kid, so did Mike, but he never stopped. In 2017 Mike started getting that "serious training" bug and set out to become a more prepared and competent civilian/citizen. He believes that everyone has the right to defend themselves, whether you chose to be armed with a firearm or unarmed, the choice is yours to make. Now practice!
Mike believes in "well rounded" training and thinks that being good at many things is better than being an expert in one form of self defense. He continues to train in pistol (dot and iron), rifle , shotgun, Image Based Decisional Drills, unarmed/ground fighting, Mindset, medical, home defense, and vehicle defense. Some of his favorite moments was training with Bulwarks , TCC, Dr William April, Lee Weems and Tom Givens.
Mike told us that "becoming an asset rather than a liability is my main goal and I find helping others to achieve that same transformation very rewarding. Through my own journey I’ve gained life saving and empowering skills. I have trained beside a diverse community full of people with mixed backgrounds and like-minds. I am forever proud, fortunate and grateful to always be a student and I look forward to mastering my craft". The second those words left his mouth we KNEW we wanted Mike join our team.....and he did!
We are proud to say that in 2021 Mike became an offical member of Team TCC and started an apprenticeship under Brian Hill.
