    Speak and Be Heard!

The heart of Toastmasters is communication.  In Toastmasters you will learn to speak in front of an audience in a wide variety of roles.  With its proven, self-paced program, you will build your skills and confidence for effective self-expression in any situation.

Meetings are organized and structured, yet relaxed. New members are provided with a thorough, step-by-step training manual which is a wealth of information. The basic manual consists of ten formal speech projects intended to gradually develop the skills of the speaker. Club members also have the caring, supportive environment of the club for encouragement and help.

The Toastmasters 75 Club is for fluent English speakers of all nationalities. Please note that it is not an English course and it is not the purpose of the club to actually teach English. The purpose of the club is to help its members speak well in public, in English. New members already speak excellent English.

There is also ample opportunity for pursuing leadership and teamwork within the club. Your initiative and participation will be both personally and professionally rewarding. If you want to develop or even master your communication skills, if you enjoy pro-active involvement and if your English is fluent, you will find the Toastmasters 75 Club stimulating, enlightening and motivating.

New member membership is 150 euros. This includes the annual dues of 125 euros plus the one-time fee of 25 euros which includes a new member kit with the training manual, and registration with Toastmasters International. With about 19 meetings per year, this averages to less than 8 euros per meeting. It’s a rare bargain for a very high-quality and unique program of personal development.

The Toastmasters 75 Club is a non-profit organization, a chartered club of Toastmasters International, founded by Ralph C. Smedley in 1924 in California, USA. Since that first meeting, over 3 million people have benefited from Toastmasters. There are currently more than 200,000 members in over 10,000 clubs throughout 80 countries.
