Coach Whillock
Touted early in his career as one of the best padholders in the world by FightTips Channel and described as one of the best muay thai coaches in europe by coach of over 20 world champions and striking coach on The Ultimate FighterTV series, Kirian Fitzgibbons, Coach Whillock had gained widespread recognition inside striking sports already by age 27.
By age 28 he had already coached a fighter to ISKA World Amateur glory and become a self-taught and undefeated professional boxing coach.
In the years following he had his role in coaching fighters to national titles in several sports, worked with fighters in Bellator and UFC as well as serving two seasons as strength and conditioning coach for local ice hockey team Nidaros and was chosen to coach the Norwegian National Muay Thai team.
Surprisingly it is not fighting or gold medals that is Coach Whillock's main passion.
After years of intense battles with mental health issues, addiction and chronic suicidality, being a victim of horrendous bullying and being lucky enough to survive the trials of life, and be forgiven for the wrong turns he has taken, Coach Whillock's main mission in life is to help people find themselves in the midst of life's chaos, to offer a shelter from the rain, to forgive and forget, and to help in any way he can to offer in as little time as possible, the lessons than took him almost two decades of frustration to learn.
He believes whole heartedly that martial arts are a vehical to our truest potential and away from our suffering, whatever they may be.
"We do not have to become great fighters, but we do have to become great people", is the slogan of NCA.
