Become a confident public speaker!
Contest Night
On Tuesday 19 October, we will be holding our annual International Speech and Evaluation Contest. Guests are welcome to attend! This will be held at the Cashmere Club (88 Hunter Terrace) and starts at 7.30pm. Please arrive 10 – 15 minutes early.
What we do...
Most of us have experienced the uncomfortable feeling of being asked to speak in public. Toastmasters is a place where you can learn techniques and practice speaking so that, when these opportunities arise, you can approach them with confidence and deliver an exceptional performance.
Toastmasters is a great way to meet new people build connections. We genuinely care about helping people achieve their goals and provide a warm, friendly environment when you can feel supported.
Toastmasters is where leaders are made. The communication skilled learned in our club can help you be more successful in your career or any other aspect of your life.
Confidence will set you free! Imagine being able to stand up in front of an audience without feeling any anxiety. Imagine being able to impress them with your energy and charisma. This is the version of yourself that we can help you achieve.
Visit Our Next Meeting!
We meet every Tuesday at 7:30pm in the Cashmere Club (88 Hunter terrace). It is 100% free to attend as a guest to see how Toastmasters works. Don’t worry, there won’t be any pressure to speak on the first visit! For more information, simply email us at christchurch.toastmastersclub@gmail.com or send a message via our Facebook Page.
What our members say...
One of the best decisions I have made in my life!
“Joining Christchurch Toastmasters was one of the best decisions I have made in my life. They are a very friendly and yet professional group of people, and I was warmly welcomed by everyone from the very first day. I had originally joined the club to gain more confidence in my public speaking, however, Christchurch Toastmasters not only helped me become more confident, but also improved my mindfulness around time management, filler words and facial expressions.
I highly recommend Christchurch Toastmasters to anyone who would like to improve their public speaking skills in a warm, friendly and stress-free environment.”
From Farah Khosravi
Toastmasters gave me the confidence to succeed
“I have never been comfortable speaking in public or even communicating in small groups. It wasn’t until a few years ago when my role changed and I was required to start regularly speaking in front of 30 – 50 people that I discovered the true level of anxiety it caused me.
I joined Toastmasters just over 18 months ago to help me become a more confident speaker. What really struck me was all of the encouragement I received and how friendly the people were. Toastmasters gave me the confidence to succeed. I even took on the role of club president.
For anyone who wants to become a confident speaker, who can wow an audience, I would highly recommend you join Toastmasters!”
