BRIAN BURKE - "DON'T BE AFRAID TO BE GREAT!" BACKGROUND: HELLO STARS! BEING INVOLVED IN SPORTS ALL OF MY LIFE, I ALWAYS FOUND TRAINING AND WORKING OUT TO BE BENEFICIAL FOR ATHLETIC GAIN. AFTER THE PLAYING DAYS WERE DONE AND I FINALLY HUNG UP MY CLEATS IN 2011 AFTER 4 YEARS OF SEMI-PRO FOOTBALL, I CONTINUED WORKING OUT BUT KNEW THERE WAS SOMETHING MISSING. I STARTED INVOLVING MYSELF IN VARIOUS WORKOUT REGIMENS RANGING FROM YOGA, CROSSFIT, BOOT CAMP, EVEN INSANITY. I INSTANTLY BECAME HOOKED ON THE FRIENDLY COMPETITION IN GROUP STYLE TRAINING SESSIONS THAT MEASURED YOUR WORK BY TIME, REPS, AND SPEED. WORKING AT THE YMCA FOR 10+ YEARS, I ALSO FOUND THE IMPORTANCE OF TOGETHERNESS AND FAMILY COMMUNITY AND HOW BENEFICIAL IT CAN BE FOR DIFFERENT GENERATIONS TO INTERACT WITH EACH OTHER. WITH YEARS OF RESEARCH, COACHING, AND PARTICIPATING I COLLABORATED WITH MY BEST FRIEND AND LIFE PARTNER, TOGETHER WE DEVELOPED AN IDEA THAT ENCOMPASSES FRIENDLY COMPETITION, BRINGS A GREAT SENSE OF COMMUNITY, AND BUILDS RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN PEOPLE OF DIFFERENT GENERATIONS. IN 2015, WE FOUNDED NORTHSTAR FITGROUP, LLC, A PLACE WHERE EVERYONE APART OF OUR COMMUNITY ARE STAR ATHLETES.
HOBBIES: ALTHOUGH I DON'T GO TO CHURCH AS OFTEN AS MY MOTHER WOULD LIKE (LOVE YOU MOM), PUTTING GOD FIRST IN EVERYTHING I DO; SPENDING TIME WITH MY WIFE AND KIDS WHICH USUALLY MEANS ACTIVE PLAYTIME; COOKING; FOOTBALL; WORKING OUT; AND BEING INVOLVED IN YOUTH ACTIVITIES.

TIONNA BURKE- "STRONG IS THE NEW SEXY"
BACKGROUND: IN MY ADOLESCENT YEARS, I LOVED MUSIC AND MAKING UP DANCE ROUTINES TO PERFORM AT LOCAL TALENT SHOWS. LATER, I BECAME A CAPTAIN IN ONE OF THE LOCAL STEP AND DRILL TEAMS DOING PERFORMANCES AND MARCHING IN PARADES. THIS LED TO JOINING MY HIGH SCHOOL’S DANCE AND STEP TEAM, WHERE WE PERFORMED DURING HALF TIME AT BASKETBALL GAMES. FEARFUL OF GAINING THAT “FRESHMAN 15” IN COLLEGE, I BEGAN WORKING OUT AND DOING LOTS OF CARDIO. MY LOVE OF WORKING OUT EVOLVED INTO RUNNING 5K’S, 10 MILERS AND HALF MARATHONS. WHILE I STILL ENJOY RUNNING AND BEING IN THE GYM, I WANTED AN EXERCISE MORE CHALLENGING. SO, I DISCOVERED AND FELL IN LOVE WITH THE ART OF POLE DANCING A LITTLE OVER SIX YEARS AGO. POLE DANCING OPENED UP A WHOLE NEW WORLD OF FITNESS THAT I WAS LOOKING FOR. I BECAME CERTIFIED AND WORKED AS A POLE DANCE INSTRUCTOR FOR ABOUT 4 YEARS, CREATING WORKOUTS AND ROUTINES CENTERED AROUND THE POLE. IN 2014, I WANTED TO JOIN MY HUSBAND IN CROSSFIT AND CROSS-TRAINING WORKOUTS. I LOVED IT! NOW MY WORKOUT REGIMEN CONSISTS OF POLE DANCING, CROSS TRAINING AND RUNNING WITH MY WONDERFUL NORTHSTAR COMMUNITY!
HOBBIES: I ENJOY SPENDING TIME WITH MY HUSBAND AND PLAYING WITH MY VERY ACTIVE BABIES; WORKING OUT AND TRYING NEW SPINS ON THE POLE; RUNNING; BEING CRAFTY AND DO-IT-YOURSELF PROJECTS AND PLANNING EVENTS. NorthStar Commitment: STAR Team Training;POLE FIT; Fit-2-GO
CHRISTOPHER KILLIAN- ROMANS 12:6 "FIND OUT WHAT YOUR GIFT IS, AND DO IT
WELL".
BACKGROUND: MY ATHLETIC BACKGROUND STEMS FROM FOOTBALL WHICH I STARTED AT 6 YEARS OLD AND CONTINUED THROUGH COLLEGE AT BRIDGEWATER COLLEGE AS A DEFENSIVE BACK AND AT THE PRO LEVEL WITH THE INDOOR FOOTBALL LEAGUE. AFTER FOOTBALL, I CONTINUED TO WORK OUT BECAUSE I LOVED TO TRAIN BUT WAS GROWING BORED. I NEEDED SOMETHING TO FILL THE COMPETITION VOID THAT FOOTBALL LEFT. A FRIEND SUGGESTED CROSSFIT THINKING IT WOULD BE A NATURAL FIT. I STARTED CROSSFIT IN NOVEMBER OF 2014 AND IMMEDIATELY FELL IN LOVE WITH THE CHALLENGE IT PRESENTED EVERYDAY. IT ALSO FILLED THE VOID THAT FOOTBALL HAD LEFT. I DOVE RIGHT IN HEADFIRST AND HAVEN'T LOOKED BACK SINCE. I COMPETED ON THE 7TH PLACE OVERALL MID-ATLANTIC REGIONAL TEAM IN 2014. ALSO, PLACED 3RD AT THE 2014 BEAST OF THE EAST COMPETITION AND 15TH AT THE 2016 WODAPALOOZA FITNESS FESTIVAL AS AN INDIVIDUAL IN MIAMI!!!!.
HOBBIES: MY FAITH IS VERY IMPORTANT AND IS WHAT ALLOWS ME TO KEEP MOVING FORWARD EACH DAY. I ENJOY SPENDING TIME WITH MY GIRLFRIEND AND SON, FOOTBALL, WORKING OUT, AND I ENJOY LAUGHING AND JUST HAVING A GOOD TIME. I BELIEVE IN LAUGHING TO TEARS AT LEAST ONCE A DAY.
