Starts 2nd Week of July 2026

What Dan has to say about this 5-week experience

THE PURPOSE OF THE INNER CIRCLE
“What I want people to walk away with from is pretty straightforward. You stop chasing programs that don’t work for you. You get better at seeing what actually helps you get stronger and leaner without beating yourself up. And you leave with the ability to keep making progress for years instead of just the next few months.”
— Dan John
IS THIS FOR YOU?

This experience is built for people who want real, lasting results... not another quick fix.

Serious about sustainable fitness

You want to build habits that actually stick - without burning out, sacrificing family or getting injured.

Tired of starting over

You've tried "do this" programs before. This time you want actual wisdom and the systems that make consistency almost automatic.

Want longevity without compromise

You realized most people out there either burn you out or won't deliver. You want to be strong and fit from 18 to 80.

THE CURRICULUM

Dan John's most powerful frameworks
condensed into 5 focused weeks.

This is the same proven material Dan uses with his long-term Inner Circle members, adapted for a powerful 5-week journey.
CORE PRINCIPLES
Principle 1: Foundations

Getting absolute clarity and creating your "perfect day" frameworks that make achieving ideal outcomes effortless and automated.

Principle 2: Pirate Maps & Daily Systems

Designing simple, repeatable daily habits that compound over time. Learn how elite athletes achieve mastery.

Principle 3: The Buckets Theory

Using hindsight and foresight to make better decisions about your training, health, and future - so you don't waste precious years chasing things that don't serve you.

Principle 4: Eliminating the Noise & Boundaries

Learning to see the signal from the noise, what works from what doesn't. Master the art of identifying and saying No! to things that are shiny, yet useless.

Principle 5: Results & Long-Term Thinking

Locking in the protocols that actually move the needle to produce results over the long term for your desired goals rather than short term band-aids.

BECOME A MASTER AT TRAINING

Every week connects mindset to real-world training and recovery.

Practical lifting guidelines and recovery strategies
Optimal cardio and daily movement systems
Nutrition fundamentals without overwhelm
Sleep, stress, and long-term athleticism

REAL RESULTS FROM REAL PEOPLE

What Inner Circle members say about Dan's coaching

"I am a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt, Judo black belt, owner of Dojo Kyle Jiu-Jitsu in Kyle, TX. I initially joined the Inner Circle because things were starting to slip with my health. My blood markers were moving in the wrong direction and my body was beat up from years of martial arts and overtraining. When I joined, the program ended up helping me develop a lot of little habits that allowed me to get my health back on track, my weight under control, and my body feeling better than it has in 15 years. I've seen incredible results from listening to Dan John and learning from the Inner Circle. I highly recommend this program!"

— Will Caldwell
BJJ & Judo Black Belt, GYM Owner

"I think about Inner Circle often. I had a wonderful experience and I don’t know where to start! Being a busy mom of five and working part-time, Inner Circle was a game changer. It amazes me how much my values have shifted from beginning to end and yet, still keep shifting. The recognition part was huge for me. To recognize what I value and to put my efforts into those specific things decluttered my life. I stopped feeling guilty for the things I’m not going to do. After the program, I find myself less stressed, more present and, more accomplished. Highly recommend it."

— Ashley Tinneny
Business Owner & Coach, Mother of Five

"I was reflecting on just how valuable I've found the coaching. Both the video calls and the group sessions. I've come to find out just how large my blind spots were and my tendency to overtrain. Hearing everyone else's journey in the group and how they manage training in the midst of life is really inspiring. This coupled with Dan's feedback has been priceless for me. I am leaner and feeling much stronger! Thank you Dan, Ozzy & Brian and everyone in the group."

— Omar Zarka
Sr. Manager, Software

"Dan, you are the catalyst that makes it all worthwhile. You know how to pull out the gems and spark the imagination. That’s why this is such a beneficial program. Truly a holistic health and fitness training. It's really graduates level learning. Thank you!"

— RJ Hughes
Brigade Commander, US Army

"The team at Dan John University is awesome. I've been through the inner circle program twice, and I'm sure I'll continue coming back. The people who takes this course is always in the top 5% of people you'll meet in your life. Dan John is a wonderful human being. Without a doubt, I would recommend the Inner Circle to anyone."

— MAJ Dan Fosselman
Board-Certified Family & Sports Medicine Physician

"Thank you all for all the great info. Today, I completed Day 2 of (Inner Circle Program) as I needed to learn the movements. I did not expect to sweat this much from it. I am truly humbled. Muscles I didn't know existed became sentient. Looking forward to our calls and very much appreciate the group. Thanks for all the tips and encouragement Dan!"

Frequently Asked Questions

How is this different from the regular Inner Circle?

The Inner Circle is an invite only 3-month personal coaching experience with 1-on-1 interactions that has enrollments twice a year. This is a focused 5-week group training program with live coaching sessions and written Q&A interactions. The original Inner Circle has the same training, more calls, direct 1-1 interactions, and significantly higher price. This one you'll get the same training on a shorter time-frame and while still having the opportunity to ask your questions to Dan.

What happens after I enroll?

We will reach out shortly with an onboarding email - detailing what to expect, call links, dates with times, and everything you need.

What if I can't make the live sessions?

Sessions will be recorded and shared with all participants, so you will not miss out on anything.

Is this only for advanced lifters?

No. Dan's curriculum works for people at all levels, from those just getting serious about training to experienced athletes. We usually have these groups of people enroll in every cohort of the Inner Circle; regular working people, fitness enthusiasts, competing athletes, military personnel, older longevity focused people and fitness coaches.

Is there a refund policy?

You can ask for a refund in the first week of the program if you don't think it is a good fit.

When are the sessions?

Subject to change by Dan, but currently, 7am and 7pm Mountain Time on Wednesdays.

How can I join the sessions?

We will be using Zoom to hold the sessions. We will give you all the information to join the calls when you enroll and happy to assist you, if it is your first time using this application.

Will there be group workouts?

There won't be any live workouts for this program. This is graduate level training that will bring results to all areas of your life and fitness beyond simple programs, although you can ask Dan questions on any program you want in the Q&A's.
