You can take the EFS Movement Ninja Quiz to find out what type of ninja you are and the best program for your goals and starting point: Each of our programs has prerequisites and training goals. Based on your current fitness level, experience with movement training, and goals, we would recommend a different starting place. Are you a total beginner? Never tried any form movement training? Or perhaps you have some experience with weight lifting or yoga but you have previous injuries, suffer from joint aches, or struggle with instability? Want to become better coordinated? Increase your mobility and stability? Feel confident that you can start strength training with minimal injury risk? If this sounds like you, start with our ISOLATE | Joint Health & Mobility program. Do you have a little experience with weight lifting, yoga, calisthenics, or movement? Would you like to solidify your foundations and start on the right track to getting strong and mastering your body? Want to master intermediate moves like Tricep Dips, Chin Ups, Step Ups, and Reverse Nordic Curls? Want to progress to master advanced calisthenics moves like Muscle Ups, Handstand Push Ups, Dragon Flags, Nordic hamstring Curls, and Sissy Squats? If this sounds like you, start with our COMPOUND program. Compound includes 3 phases to progress from beginner to advanced! Perhaps you want to learn to flow like water, master primal moves, and feel like a graceful movement master? Then our FLOW program is for you! Do you have a fairly good foundation of strength and mobility already and want to learn how to balance a handstand? If this sounds like you, start with our Compound | Hand Balancing program. Check out all of our programs in the Evolution Library for more!

Yes, you can! However, it depends on which programs you’re interested in, your recovery capacity, and how much time you have. We recommend following a maximum of 2 programs at a time to avoid overtraining.

We regularly add new content to the library, though there’s no set schedule. On average, you can expect 1-2 new classes and 3-4 new tutorials each month.
