Get To Know Us
ADRIANA WELHAM
CO-FOUNDER &
WELL-BEING COACH
Hi, I’m Adri. I’m originally from Venezuela, and I believe movement is about so much more than fitness — it’s about feeling fully alive.
For over 15 years, I’ve helped people move with greater strength, confidence and joy. I’m certified in Pilates (Mat & Reformer), Yoga, Dance Fitness, Barre, Strength & Balance, Qigong and 9D Somatic Breathwork, bringing together movement, breath and wellbeing to help people feel better in body and mind.
As a TEDx speaker, retreat leader and advocate for women in midlife and beyond, I’m passionate about challenging the idea that ageing means becoming less visible, adventurous or relevant.
I believe the second half of life can be our most powerful chapter — a time to reconnect with ourselves, rediscover what lights us up and ask: What’s next for me?
At Vida Wellness Club, we don’t just want to help you live longer. We want to help you live better, stronger, happier — and more connected.
LAURA MARTINEZ
CO-FOUNDER &
WELL-BEING COACH
I’m Laura, I was born in Spain and, after several years living in the UK, I now call Dubai home. Movement and wellbeing have always been a big part of who I am, and in 2023, Adri and I founded Vida Wellness Club with one simple purpose: to bring wellness closer to our community.
As a Pilates, Barre, Zumba and Movement instructor, I believe exercise is about so much more than how our bodies look - it’s about how we feel. Through Vida, we want to create a space where people can move, connect, feel stronger and take a little time for themselves.
