Diane Jarmolow Becomes the DVIDA Ambassador to Trinidad and Tobago
Diane Jarmolow has received the great honor of becoming the DVIDA Ambassador to the beautiful island nations of Trinidad and Tobago. Diane has been working with Trinidad Minister of Culture Eugene Joseph for several years, and recently travelled to Trinidad where she gave DVIDA Certification and Medal tests to over 70 instructors and students at the renowned Trinidad Dance Theater.
“This was a phenomenal experience,” says Diane. “The dancers were so well prepared, so talented, so welcoming, and so joyful. It was privilege and an inspiration to be a part of their continuing education in ballroom dance. I can’t wait to see them all again!”
Diane has another trip planned to Trinidad on the day after Thanksgiving and to work on certification training and exam preparation, and she plans to make many more trips in the years to come.
