About Blue Star Fitness

Blue Star Fitness was founded in 2003 by NASM certified personal trainer Donald Poindexter. Poindexter began his fitness career as a well-known kickboxing instructor at a number of Northern Virginia gyms, including Gold's, Washington Sports Club, and Sport & Health. He found a love for fitness and received his personal trainer certification from the National Academy of Sports Medicine.

He then took his kickboxing experience along with a martial arts background and created Kickboxing Boot Camp - an intense training program designed to get participants into the best shape of their lives using kickboxing combined with practical self-defense techniques.

Poindexter then expanded the Blue Star Fitness program to include Youth Performance Training which stems from a basketball fundamentals program he has taught for the Loudoun County Parks and Recreation Department since 1998.

In 2004, Blue Star Fitness opened their first private training studio in Herndon, Virginia which they closed in 2007 when most of their clients opted for at home private training or online training.

Poindexter is joined by his wife, Laura, an NASM-certified personal trainer, 2004 AAU Virginia State Tae Kwon Do champion in forms and sparring, national Tae Kwon Do competitor, and kickboxing and yoga instructor.
