Hanover Yoga & Wellness

Hanover Yoga & Wellness Offering Yoga & Meditation sessions for folks with disabilities and their caregivers. Sarah has been offering private Yoga sessions and events ever since.

We are a small Yoga community in Hanover County, VA founded in 2015 by Sarah Brannan Bunger Horne. Over the past decade Hanover Yoga & Wellness has helped humans of all shapes and backgrounds connect with the benefits of practicing Yoga. This small business used to be a brick and mortar boutique fitness studio prior to 2020 but during and after the pandemic, the studio’s physical space closed. Over the years, Sarah has been eager to reunite this Community and offer Yoga services to the public again. And this time, Hanover Yoga will offer Yoga and Mediation sessions specifically designed and catered for the special needs community - individuals with physical, mental, and intellectual disabilities. We will also continue to serve bodies of all ages, shapes, and abilities - but most importantly, we specifically serve folks with disabilities and their caretakers. The Founder of Hanover Yoga & Wellness, Sarah has a son with several intellectual disabilities and Autism, and they needed a community and space to practice Yoga where her son and her family felt accepted and loved. So here we are! Our Mission: Breathe. Educate. Advocate. Inspire. We respond to life through our nervous system’s natural fight or flight reaction. Our mission is to help folks breathe, become aware of their nervous system, educate to bring awareness, advocate for change, and inspire to heal collectively. We strive to inspire and help humans of all shapes and sizes find holistic ways to relieve tension, pain, and trauma in the physical body, as well as release emotional stress within the mind, so we may feel more comfortable and confident in our body and lives. We specifically provide a space for folks with special needs and disabilities to show up, be exposed to Yoga and Meditation practices, and feel welcomed. Weirdness is welcomed!

Sharing this resource to support all efforts in protecting our Youth and most vulnerable. Thank you The Mama Bear Effect for breaking the silence and building a culture where every child is protected, respected, and empowered.

Secrets are often a precursor to abuse. ⚠️

They weaken a child’s bond with their protectors, they can be used to test if a child will keep the secret and if an adult will say something. 

Even seemingly “safe” secrets can be used to groom a child and establish control.

For the protection of children having a no secrets rule can minimize opportunity for further grooming and potential abuse to occur.
