With clubs like ours, people can improve their communication and leadership skills, and find the courage to change.
Toastmasters supplies the tools and we supply a friendly environment to help you develop and practice your communication and leadership skills. We are a fast paced, fun and career focused club.
Guests are always welcome and no appointment is necessary — just show up, grab some dinner, and enjoy yourself!
A Toastmasters meeting is a learn-by-doing workshop in which participants hone their speaking and leadership skills in a no-pressure atmosphere.
There is no instructor in a Toastmasters meeting. Instead, members evaluate one another’s presentations. This feedback process is a key part of the program’s success.
Meeting participants also give impromptu talks on assigned topics, conduct meetings and develop skills related to timekeeping, grammar and parliamentary procedure.
Members learn communication skills by working in the Competent Communication manual, a series of 10 self-paced speaking assignments designed to instill a basic foundation in public speaking.
