About The Retreat

Jodie & Emma are thrilled to be hosting their 6th annual Detox & Yoga Retreat, set along the breathtaking Bodrum coastline, where the turquoise waters of the Aegean Sea meet pristine nature. You’ll stay at a luxurious, award-winning 5-star wellness hotel, offering spectacular sea views, a private beach and 100 acres of lush gardens.

Join our Fringe.Yoga founder & Senior Yoga Teacher, Jodie Merrick, for an indulgent 5- or 7-night retreat, supported by a dedicated team committed to helping you detox, cleanse, and rejuvenate your body, refresh your mind and restore your energy.

Spring is the perfect time for a detox—just as we declutter our homes, our bodies, especially our digestive systems, need a seasonal reset. It’s the ideal time to focus on digestion and detoxification!

• Spring symbolizes renewal, rebirth, and growth, marking the transition from winter’s darkness (the yin phase of the year) into the lighter, more vibrant yang phase.
• In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), spring is linked to the liver—one of the body’s most vital organs for detoxification, metabolism, and energy production. When the liver functions optimally, emotional Qi flows freely, supporting overall well-being. It plays a crucial role in fat metabolism, carbohydrate breakdown, and toxin elimination, helping you feel lighter, brighter, and more energized.

Join us for this transformative retreat and give your body the reset it deserves!

Activities & Classes

YOGA:
There will be twice daily fringe.yoga sessions held at the stunning outdoor yoga sala with Jodie who will take you on a journey into how the yoga practices can support the cleansing, regeneration and healing of your body, mind and spirit. When we retreat we really allow for the space we need to come back to ourselves, our true nature, purpose and balance. This retreat will deepen that journey as we really delve into our health and optimal wellbeing.

MORNING MEDITATION:
There will be a Daily Group Morning Meditation practise down at the pontoon over the sea before the morning yoga class.

RELAX & THINGS TO DO:
There are so many places to relax and retreat; from the private beach with its sea pontoon to one of the pools around the hotel, including an indoor pool. The spa offers a relaxation room as well as a sauna, steam room and Turkish bath and an extensive treatment menu.

During your stay there will be educational workshops and raw food demonstrations, as well as guided local walks, a boat trip and a shopping trip to Bodrum.

The hotel also offers 2 tennis courts, a gym and running track, as well as a daily group fitness schedule. We encourage a daily swim in the sea so that you absorb lots of magnesium from the mineral rich sea which will help you relax and sleep better.

You can do as much or as little as you choose – you may prefer to relax by the sea with a book, join in one of the hotel activities, explore one of the local villages or treat yourself to a massage.

Teacher & Retreat Leader

Jodie – Founder of Fringe.Yoga & Creator of the Fringe.Method.

With over two decades of experience, Jodie is a highly respected yoga teacher, studio owner and the visionary behind the Fringe.Method—an intelligent and accessible approach to yoga inspired by the grounding, fluidity, energy and breath of nature’s elements: Earth, Water, Fire, and Air.

Her journey began in 1999 when yoga was part of her Theatre & Dance training, leading her to her YTT in 2005 then training extensively in multiple styles before developing her own method; which blends traditional wisdom with a modern, adaptable structure that welcomes practitioners of all levels.

Since opening her first yoga studio in London in 2011, Jodie has gone on to open three different studios over the past 13 years. Her current studio, Fringe.Yoga, is a sanctuary for students and teachers alike, offering classes, workshops and teacher trainings that reflect her depth of knowledge and passion for movement, breath and connection.

Beyond the studio, Jodie has been leading transformative worldwide retreats since 2009, creating immersive experiences that allow students to deepen their practice in breathtaking locations. In 2016, she launched her teacher training programs, mentoring the next generation of yoga teachers with her intelligent, inclusive and deeply inspired approach.

A sought-after teacher, mentor, and retreat leader, Jodie continues to evolve her teachings while staying rooted in the philosophy that yoga should be intelligent, adaptable and deeply connected to nature. Her mission is simple: to make yoga accessible, meaningful and life-enhancing for everyone who steps onto the mat.
