History
In the late 1970's, the eldest brother of 6 South Korean Martial Artists settled in Herndon, VA with the goal of introducing the Korean Art of Taekwondo. His foresight and expertise led him to develop one of the first highly successful Martial Arts schools in the United States and become known as a true pioneer in the Martial Arts world. In 1986, his brothers joined him and planted their roots across the Eastern US. This was the birth of the Lee Brothers dynasty. Today, many of the teachers who studied directly under the Lee Brothers operate schools of their own across the whole country. Grand Master Sang Ho Lee of Burlington, NC established his school in 1991 and has guided his students to open up successful schools in Greensboro, NC, Mebane, NC, and Turlock, CA.
