The Lee's Story
Like father and like son dedicated their lives in martial arts to the fullest and they share their passions to students throughout the years who have achieved high level of success at home, work, social life and in Taekwondo. This is the legacy that Grandmaster Lee has given to Master Lee and it will continue in the years to come.
Founder and Grandmaster Lee
Grandmaster Chang Lee began practicing Taekwondo in Korean when he was thirteen years old. He was first introduced to Americans in Korean. Grandmaster Lee and Bobby Kim, now in Denver, Colorado were commissioned by the U.S. Army to teach Taekwondo to the Army's Second Division stationed in Korea.
​
In 1974, Bobby Kim sponsored Grandmaster Lee's immigration to the U.S. where he taught Taekwondo at the U.S. Airforce Academy until 1979. In 1980, Grandmaster Lee moved to Dallas, Texas and opened the first of his many dojangs (schools) where he has produced many State and National Champions as well as Olympic contenders.
