Hello
My name is Turi. I'm a lover a sunrises and good coffee. Both fuel me to share the tools I have received to enhance health and wellbeing through all the seasons of our lives. Wishing you and all beings peace & joy!
My Story
TURI HETHERINGTON, C-IREST®, E-RYT500, LPF-CT
I help women cultivate strength, awareness, and grace through embodied movement, breath, meditation, and stillness—with practices that support living well through every season of life.
I have lived and worked in the Gallatin Valley for more than 30 years, with a career that has taken me through snow sports, restaurants, marketing, graphic design, and nonprofit management. In 2011, I completed my first RYT200 yoga teacher training, opening a deeper exploration into the intersection of ancient yoga teachings, modern psychology, and neuroscience.
Over the years, that exploration has led me to study and teach a range of practices including yoga, mantra, meditation, Low Pressure Fitness, and iRest Yoga Nidra. My work is grounded in the belief that wellness is not one-size-fits-all, and that meaningful practices can meet us wherever we are in life.
Today, I work with women in group classes, private sessions, and, on a limited basis, in their homes. In-home wellness sessions offer an opportunity to work more personally and in a familiar environment, with practices tailored to the individual. Depending on the person and the day, a session might include mindful movement, breathwork, meditation, iRest Yoga Nidra, Low Pressure Fitness, or simply time to slow down, connect, and listen to what the body and mind are asking for.
I have taught in a wide range of settings, including local yoga studios, the Ridge Athletic Club, Montana State University, the Bozeman Public Library, the Concussion Resource Center, Gallatin County Detention Center, the LoveYourBrain Foundation, YogaMotion Academy teacher trainings, and several veteran organizations. I am also fortunate to collaborate with the talented team at Health in Motion Physical Therapy + Wellness.
These experiences ultimately inspired me to open Strength & Grace Wellness in January 2025—a small studio dedicated to whole-person wellness through movement, meditation, fitness, and mindfulness practices. Whether in a studio, online, or in the comfort of someone's home, my aim is the same: to create space for women to develop a deeper relationship with their bodies, their breath, their minds, and themselves.
My work continues to be enriched by the awe-inspiring mountain environment of the Gallatin Valley, originally known as the Valley of Flowers. It is a place of magic and inspiration, and some of my favorite moments are spent on a trail at sunrise.
