About Rosa

Rosa founded Pilatespluswellness Ltd as a natural extension of her passion for health and her desire to help her clients feel the best they can in their body and mind. Rosa decided to combine Pilates, Personal Training and Life coaching, utilising a holistic approach, which has proven to get sustainable and achievable results for clients. Whatever your needs, whether they are increasing fitness levels, decreasing stress, inch loss or recovering from an injury, Rosa will provide you with the approach that best suits your needs and will also incorporate various coaching techniques to help with your focus, motivation and inspiration.

Rosa gave up her full-time profession as a Radiographer to follow her passion for health and fitness and become a personal trainer in 2005 which led on to Pilates and Life Coaching. Rosa’s experience as a radiographer over the last 14 years has given her invaluable knowledge in anatomy and physiology, which she has put to good use in the injury rehabilitation and safe workouts she provides.

Rosa took up Pilates after an injury to her back and realised the huge benefits you gain in both body and mind. She integrates Pilates into her personal training. Pregnancy Pilates is one of her specialities and she is also due to be listed on the GP Referral Scheme having qualified to REPS Level 4 for lower back pain referrals. Rosa trained with Body Control Pilates and has been taught by Lynn Robinson and many other teachers working for Body Control; one of Europe’s most established Pilates schools.

Rosa completed an internationally accredited Life Coaching Course to further help her clients. Through her work, she realised that many people have negative patterns of behaviour and emotions that stop them from feeling really good or prevent them achieving their goals. Rosa integrates coaching with the personal training as is needed and helps people get rid of any negative beliefs, replacing them with empowering thoughts to allow them to move forwards. Fitness is not just about the body!

Rosa’s passion for helping people feel good in both body and mind is conveyed in the training and teaching she provides. Her aim is to inspire and motivate you to feel the best you can and to help you reach your health goals, whatever they may be.

Rosa has clients of all ages, ranging from their early 20s to late 70s, and all have seen a great difference in their shape and movement since combining Pilates with their weight training regime. They are also able to relax and concentrate a lot more effectively.

"Rosa is a gifted and experienced personal trainer and I greatly enjoy training with her. She makes each session fun; she motivates me and knows how to get the most out of me.
Importantly, Rosa produces results!"
Barbara Meynert - Philanthropist and Entrepreneur, London - UK

Rosa implements relaxation, stretching and focus exercises at the end of each session. As well as Pilates, Rosa loves running and cycling and has recently completed a half marathon for charity.
