Born in Paddington Sydney, September 19, Rosa completed her H.S.C. at Kincoppal Rose Bay, Convent of the sacred heart. She was very athletic growing up and played many sports including netball, tennis & field hockey.

Along with sports Rosa loved to dance. She had her first dance lesson at the age of three and over the years performed at lots of eisteddfods, functions, television shows and concerts. She studied contemporary jazz, ballet, tap, character and flamenco, however, became extremely passionate about flamenco, the traditional dance from Spain and this brought her closer to her culture and background. Her parents were born in Spain and immigrated to Australia in 1961.

This led her to establish an exclusive Flamenco Dance School (Spanish Rose Dance Studio) at the age of 16 . Her students ranged from children as young as 2yrs through to adults. She also began teaching Aerobics at various Health Clubs and schools as had become a certified Fitness Trainer and Aerobics Instructor.

Shortly after, Rosa was introduced to competitive aerobics and competed at State and National level. She won the NSW state title and was runner up in the Nationals.

Over the past 10 years she has appeared in numerous commercials and films and is Australia's favorite Fitness Presenter. Rosa can be seen daily on Foxtel & Channel 9 promoting Fitness & Beauty products.

 




It wasn't until April 2003 after the birth of her two boys Dylan and Jaime, that Rosa began training seriously with weights. She was so impressed with the changes weight training had made to her physique and in October 2003, decided to enter her first figure show. She took top honors and has since been crowned Miss Australia 3 times.

In 2006, she was granted Pro Status after placing 4th at the IFBB World Women's Bodybuilding, Fitness & Figure Championships in Santa Susana Spain, making her the highest ever placed Australian female in the sports history at this event.
