Terry Wisniewski took the first steps to achieve his goal when he established the first Tien lung School in Edmonton in 1992 with a modest enrollment of 50 to the present 500 students. Dojang headquarters remains in Edmonton, where students train directly with "Mr. and Mrs. Wiz" as the Wisniewskis are known to their students. In 2001, the operation was expanded to include a school in Halifax. In 2004 a third location was opened on the South side of Edmonton. Fall 2006 a fourth school is opening in Grande Prairie.

All Tien Lung schools are dedicated to the quality instruction of the original scientifically-researched Taekwon-Do and its moral culture. Very few people have been able to answer the demand for perfection of scientific techniques insisted on by General Choi. Political pressures and desire for profit have resulted in a number of organizations, schools, clubs and federations claiming to teach Taekwon-Do, but failing to follow the principles, tenets, teachings or even techniques set forth by General Choi.

Here are General Choi's views on the proliferation of "sham" Taekwon-Do: "It is one of nature's ironies that delicate plants such as orchids or tulips require extreme care, while weeds flourish with no attention at all. Wild panic grass, easily mistaken for wheat or rice, can actually prevent the growth of the genuine article. I cannot help but despair over the tainted image of Taekwon-Do recently created by practitioners of sham Taekwon-Do, who have nothing in common with the origin and art form except for a borrowed name."
