The Den by Wolf & Lion

Wolf & Lion is redefining wellness in San Diego with our new studio The Den and a community that thrives beyond four walls. Mind like a wolf, heart like a lion.

From intimate classes to creative pop-ups, we bring people together through movement, connection, and shared experience. We are a San Diego based community committed to creating unique pop-up wellness and yoga classes and events for people to stretch, not only their bodies, but also their minds, ideas, and hearts. Our goal is to provide classes and experiences that expand minds, stretch and move your body, and heal and balance the spirit. Sure we offer yoga classes, but our main focus is bringing rad people together to do rad sh*t. We love creating and collaborating with other businesses and individuals to bring the community classes and experiences that not only help you grow and expand, but also have everyone feeling seen, heard, and respected. We believe in authentic self-expression and embracing your weird-wild side. You don’t have to look like a yogi to practice yoga. We want you to be healthy and happy. Come see what we have to offer and join the pack.

Boy does it feel difficult to be “heart open” in today’s world, but as Bad Bunny reminded us, “The only thing more powerful than hate is love”. So how do we navigate our emotions and be more heart open?

Here are some simple examples:

❤️ Being more aware of beauty and awe in your everyday life. That might mean putting your phone away when walking your dog and actually noticing the word around you.

❤️ Experiencing more playfulness and joy in everyday activities. This looks different to everyone, what brings you joy?

❤️ Living more presently, and honestly, that means putting your phone down, being with people IRL, focusing on the moment your in rather than stressing about what has past or worrying about what is to come. Pro tip - yoga helps with that 😉

If this resonates, join us Valentine’s Day for a gift to yourself.

We’ll kick things off with a Yoga Fit class focused on heart openers, and guaranteed to get your heart pumpin’ then follow up with a discussion on daily shifts you can make to be more heart open.

Class starts at 9am - 10am
20 minute discussion afterwards then optional walk to Dos Palmas for coffee and connect with community.

Free for members / $25 for non-members - find everything in the bio 🫶

Teacher feature: Get to know Zach!

You know the teachers on the mat, but they are just as human as the rest of us. We asked our teachers some random questions, here is what Zach had to say:

1. What was the first thing you wanted to be when you grew up? Definitely a pilot!

2. If you could have one superpower what would it be? The ability to photosynthesize.  
3. What’s your favorite place to eat in San Diego? What do you order? Depends on the mood, but as a Jersey guy I’ve found a slice of home at Luigis Pizzeria in Golden Hill. Just a simple cheese slice, or 2 or 3. 
4. If you could live anywhere in the world other than San Diego, where would it be? At this point family is huge for me, so a large plot of land on Catalina Island sounds perfect. 
5. What is something that fills you with purpose? Being alive. I consider myself so F’n lucky to still be breathing, to still have a chance to follow my dreams and leave this place better than I found it.

6. What are 3 personal rituals that you do every day and why? I really try to live my life compassionately and allow space for my routines to fluctuate; with that said there are some non-negotiables.1. Hygiene 2. Movement 3.Connection/Study 
7. What is one quote or piece of positive advice you’d like to share? Do your best to be Honest with yourself, the stage of life you are in and your current capabilities. Be proudof yourself and enjoy where you are right now, even if it’s not where you want to be or end up, it’s the only time you’ll be here and now.

8. What type of music/DJ/band gets you dancing? I really can listen to most genres and have a great time, but lately Bad Bunny ofc.

Happy Monday fam, and happy February! We made it through January, and hopefully, with ease and grace.

The grand opening was a HUGE success. It left us with our hearts full. It was great to see so many familiar and new faces.

Shout out to .p.magana.photo for these epic photos.

We were offering 20% of our unlimited membership up until the 31st but we realized we only have 3 spots left for discounted memberships. So we’ve decided to leave the discount until those three spots are filled.

Why only three spots? Because we’re such a small space, and have to protect our members. We can only offer so many discounted memberships. So once they are gone, that’s it. So if there’s any urge to join our WolfPack, do it now while you can. Membership is only $115 for unlimited classes. As we grow, it stays the same.

Thank you again from all of us at Wolf & Lion for making our grand opening so damn special. We love you!

Best part, Feb 1st is a full moon. So we’ll have all that full moon energy blessing us 🌕

Come by the Den today (Jan 31st) from 12pm - 4pm. We’ll have a few vendors, music, membership specials, food and bevs and good vibes. Oh, and see this beautiful mural by in real life! See you there! ✌️

Wolf & Lion is community. Sure we offer yoga and fitness classes, but we go far beyond our four walls.

We’ve created a space for people to get whatever they need from their yoga practice; insight, healing, restoration, community, connection, and of course transformation.

We are most proud of the community we have built thus far. It’s a collective of rad humans out to make a difference in this world and within themselves. As we grow, we are always looking for ways to keep the community strong, always coming up with fun new activations and events.

Becoming a member at The Den is an investment in yourself and damn babe, you deserve it. We see you working hard and we want to provide a space where you can let go.

We offer:
16+ classes a week (so much more to come)
Coffee Lover Club
Hiking Club
Mini markets
All sorts of workshops, events and activations
Collaborations
Community that cares
Incredible instructors offering unique classes
and so much more on the horizon.

Our Wolfpack membership is 20% off til the end of the month, making it $115. That’s crazy cheap for a boutique studio 😳, but to us, it’s not about the membership. It’s about quality over quantity.

If you need to try before you buy, you can do two weeks for $44 (Curious Lion Intro). Looking forward to seeing you on the mat.
