Sifu Mark Horton

When Sifu Mark Horton left for Holland in 1994, he gave the school to 3 of his main students: Tim Underhill, Leo Alderman and Jay Clayson. One after another left, eventually leaving the Fighting Lions to Leo Alderman. Advancing his level to his Golden Dragon level in Shaolin/ Choy Li Fut kung fu and fourth degree black belt in Freestyle Kickboxing/Chinese Boxing and gaining the title of sifu, he has since helped the school grow from a few dozen students then, to several hundred now.
