What's in a name?
Our company name was carefully chosen to embody both astronomical significance and a metaphorical meaning. Astronomically, the North Star, or Polaris, is known for its steadfast position in the sky, serving as a pivotal point around which the northern sky turns. It has historically been a crucial navigation tool, guiding travelers and sailors with its constant, reliable presence.
This concept of guidance and dependability is central to our company's identity. NorthStar-aes aims to be a guiding light in the field of exercise science, offering direction and reliable knowledge in an industry often cluttered with fleeting trends and misinformation. The name reflects our commitment to providing stable, evidence-based solutions in health and fitness.
The names of our exercise science training programs were also carefully chosen.

"Autonomy" emphasizes self-guidance and personal responsibility in fitness, paralleling the way the North Star guides navigation. Each version of Autonomy was developed for those seeking to control their physical health through scientifically-backed methods, promoting self-sufficiency and personalized fitness strategies.

The NorthStar-aes Business Philosophy
NorthStar-aes proudly stands as a debt-free business. Since our inception, we have embraced a philosophy of sustainable growth, avoiding loans and borrowing. Our progress may have been gradual, but it was steady—fueled solely by our reinvested earnings. Seven years into our journey, our innovative exercise science concepts have come to fruition, and we continue to operate without financial liabilities. This commitment to a debt-free strategy not only shapes our operations but also ensures that we remain true to our vision of financial independence and stability.
Our Philosophy at NorthStar-aes: Authenticity in Science
At NorthStar-aes, we are dedicated practitioners of exercise science. Our team holds advanced degrees in exercise physiology, nutritional sciences, sports medicine, and human performance. From the outset, we recognized that relying on external funding (OPM, or "other people's money") could potentially lead us to prioritize profit over science, as we were repeatedly told that complicated algorithms and scientific formulas were too hard for people to understand. We never believed that to be true, at least not overwhelmingly so. All of our clients are going to be intelligent, capable people, we replied. They aren't going to need oversimplification to embrace our concepts; they will just need information that is clear and engaging.
The launch of our original NorthStar System, version 1, validated our approach, with initial sales far surpassing our expectations. This success laid a strong foundation for Version 2, showcasing our latest advancements in exercise science. Our experience is a testament to believing in one's own strategy.
