Biography

Born and raised in Montreal, Canada, Roselle Soussana started training out of the Brossard Figure skating Club in Quebec, and became a familiar face on the Quebec competition circuit throughout most of the 80s, winning several medals and awards and becoming an elite skater at the novice level.

The unfortunate death of her father in 1988 left Roselle devastated and also caused her to uproot her life in Canada and move to England. It was in England however, where she honed her now trademark artistic ability. After winning the Scottish Junior Championships and the British Junior Championship silver medal, Roselle made the decision to leave England and return home to her native land.

Though she was in love with her chosen sport, Roselle had seen the focus of "competition judging" shift from artistry to technical merit and her flawless presentation ability wasn't taking her where she needed to go. She then decided to end her amateur career and begin her life as a professional skater.

A film offer from FilmOne Productions in Toronto was Roselle's first chance to showcase her artistry on the ice. A film entitled Sometimes a Hero, gave Roselle the opportunity to act, skate, and choreograph her skating routine.

Roselle has done numerous shows in both Europe and North America - showcasing her artistry through emotion, beautiful lines and breathtaking spins and edges.

She has choreographed several programs for Brian Orser: "Night and Day" for the Michael Bolton show in Autumn 2006, "Believe" by Josh Groban on "2005 Tribute to the Movies on Ice", "Sing A Song" by Earth, Wind, and Fire on the "Earth, Wind, and Fire: Tribute on Ice" show in 2005, "Mi Mancherai" by Josh Groban on Kurt Browning's "Gotta Skate IV" show in October 2004, and "Cantico" by Andrea Bocelli on "Andrea Bocelli Tribute on Ice" show in December 2004.

Roselle has also choreographed several programs for Elvis Stojko including "The Show Must Go On" by Queen which was his last skating performance before retiring in 2006, "Epilogue" by Triumph for the 2006 Stars On Ice show, "Wake Me Up When September Ends" by Green Day, a comedy routine to "Fin Fan" and "Alle Luce Del Sol" by Josh Groban which Elvis skated to in "Ice Wars 2005" and in Kurt Browning's "Gotta Skate V" in 2005.
