This is SYL’s annual program in association with Shape magazine. Two readers are selected by Shape’s editors and attend the program for a lifestyle makeover. Join in the fun as our world renowned staff engages each participant in a lifestyle makeover where fitness isn’t simply about the shape of your body, it’s about becoming mentally, emotionally and spiritually fit; it’s about ways to efficiently and effectively shape your life while staying motivated and inspired.

We live in a world where men and women constantly work toward understanding one another, with different ways of relating, communicating, collaborating, competing. This is a program designed to explore ways to more effectively understand and relate to the opposite gender – with couples invited to join in with men and women from all walks of life. SYL takes a mind, body and spirited approach to bringing the worlds of “Mars” and “Venus” together.
