Meet The Founders


CEO
Fariha Idrees
Fariha is a mother, creator, and the driving force behind Kaizen Pilates.
Born in the UAE and raised in Japan, she spent her early career as Chief Marketing Officer of Ocean Transport, a Florida-based yacht logistics company, before motherhood reshaped her priorities. Pilates became her anchor, not just physically, but as a practice that changed how she moved through the world: calmer, stronger, more intentional.
That shift is what she set out to build for others. As CEO, Fariha leads Kaizen with the belief that wellness is about showing up for yourself consistently, and that the right space and community make it possible.


Co-founder
Humza Idrees
Humza builds at the intersection of wellness, technology, and design.
Trained in medicine with an MBA from the US, he spent a decade launching clinics and lifestyle brands and consulting for companies including Tesla and NEOM before co-founding Kaizen with his wife, Fariha. The vision was simple: wellness should feel intentional, performance-minded, and built to last.
Today, Kaizen is both a place and a platform. The studios deliver the experience. KaizenWell, the intelligence layer, turns wearable and movement data into personalized insights that help members train smarter, recover better, and stay consistent. One philosophy, expressed through space, service, and technology.
