    Oh thanks Cassius2 that's awesome. There's some big names endorsing this, like Alice Walker, Anne Hathaway, Dr Christiane Northrup and heaps more. Even Robert Redford! But I think the Aussie chapter needs a bit of a boost. I only found out about this a couple of weeks ago but I like that it's a global event and there's solidarity.

    I manage a facebook page for a women's group so will check it out. Internet here is super slow at the moment so it might have to wait for tomorrow.

    I feel very encouraged that women here are sharing this with women's groups. Awesome!

    OK, I managed to get it and have put it up now. I put up the main website though. Are you planning to go to one of the events Julie?

    Yes! I am learning the choreo with my daughters (great fun) and I will be there at Federation Square on February 14.

    Here is a youtube clip that actually teaches you the steps. Even a non dancer like me can do it! And the girls from Brooklyn in it are soooo cute.

    I just added the One Billion Rising short film to the OP too.
