Who We Are?

Darnell Del Orbe Tejada / Coach DDOT
Founder & CEO


I’m Darnell, Coach DDOT, a student of Kinesiology, NASM Certified Personal Trainer, and NASM Certified Nutrition Coach. My passion for movement started young, jumping into every sport I could: soccer, football, basketball, anything that made me feel free and alive. But as I got older, insecurity, injuries, and self-doubt began to weigh on me. I felt weak, fragile, and disconnected from the sport I loved most.

Those challenges pushed me into fitness not just to change my body but to rebuild myself entirely. Through training, I repaired old injuries, gained real strength and confidence, and discovered something bigger. The process that transformed me could help others transform too. That became my purpose.

As I continued studying Kinesiology, earning my certifications, and training people, I realized I wasn’t just coaching. I was building a philosophy, a framework, a way of living built on structure, discipline, clarity, and becoming the brightest version of yourself.

That philosophy evolved into STARLIKE Fitness, a method, a system, a lifestyle, a way of being. Rooted in the S.T.A.R. principles: Strength, Transformation, Alignment, and Radiance. STARLIKE exists to guide beginners through the noise, intimidation, and misinformation that dominate modern fitness. It is designed to help people find clarity, build confidence, and rise into their full potential, whether they are just starting or reigniting a lost flame.

STARLIKE is about evolution, purpose, and becoming brilliant from the inside out. My mission is simple: I help people start that journey the same way I started mine—strong, structured, and aligned with who they are becoming.

A smarter, clearer way to train.


Our proprietary training method, the S.T.A.R. System (Strength, Transformation, Alignment, Radiance), is based on deeply studied and proven principles of human movement, behavior change, and performance progression. It was developed through years of academic study, field observation, systems analysis, and real coaching application by founder and CEO, Mr. Darnell Del Orbe Tejada. With formal education spanning Bachelor’s, Master’s, and Doctoral-Level coursework, and elite credentials including positions such as NASM Certified Personal Trainer, NASM Certified Nutrition Coach, and NASM Certified Virtual Coaching Specialist, Darnell built the foundation for a system engineered to serve beginners with clarity, confidence, and intelligent structure.

Throughout his career, Darnell found that while the fitness industry was rich in information, it lacked a unified method that translated complex science into something simple, progressive, and empowering for new trainees. By analyzing top performers and evaluating the best practices used by trainers, athletes, and movement specialists, he extracted the strongest strategies, refined them, and integrated them into one cohesive model. The result was a training method that merges science-based programming, intelligent progression, mindset development, individualized adaptation, and long-term lifestyle alignment.

As a result, the S.T.A.R. System was born. Using structured training backed by applied exercise science and over 6+ years of experience, the system adapts to the individual, guiding them from foundational movement to complete transformation. Whether through in-home fitness, in-gym fitness sessions, or live virtual training, STARLIKE provides the structure, personalization, and engagement people have been searching for. More than just a program, it is a lifestyle method built to elevate strength, sharpen discipline, expand confidence, and align you with your highest potential. STARLIKE is setting the future standard of fitness with guaranteed results and 100% 5-star client reviews
