You can add break-before="column" to each of your <table> elements 
... this will ensure that each table begins at the top of a column 
(which on a 1-column page is at the top of the page).  Each table 
will have its own header.  Each table's rows will contain your 
"dynamic data" (if I have correctly interpreted your use of the term).

I hope this helps.
