GRANDMASTER LEE
Sun Lee Taekwondo was founded in 1974 by Grandmaster Lee — a martial artist with over 40 years of dedicated practice and teaching. His journey began long before Richardson, Texas knew his name.
In South America, Grandmaster Lee didn't just teach in a studio. He trained the Brazilian Police Force in Sao Paulo and taught unarmed combat techniques to Brazilian Army soldiers — real-world applications of the art that shaped his philosophy of discipline, precision, and character.
"Grandmaster Lee is a dedicated teacher, philosopher, and leader in the development of Taekwondo. His life's work is to study and cultivate the art."
When Grandmaster Lee arrived in the Dallas–Fort Worth area, he brought that same seriousness of purpose with him. He established Sun Lee Taekwondo as a place where authentic Korean Taekwondo — not a watered-down version of it — would be taught with integrity and care. More than 35 years later, that founding promise remains unbroken.
Today, the academy is led by Master Jason Lee alongside a team of certified instructors who carry the Grandmaster's teachings forward. The tradition continues. The standards remain high. And the community keeps growing.
