Hi, I'm Dina. My role is to train the women to use their bodies, voices and work together as a team.  I'll be cataloging the trials and tribulations of the workshops as we prepare to lead them out on to the stage for the first time in their lives.  We have 8 weeks.  This is my blog - hope you enjoy reading....and check back for regular updates.
