What we’re about
Welcome to Bay Ridge Toastmasters, a local chapter of Toastmasters International, that offers a supportive and friendly learning environment where you can sharpen your public speaking abilities and grow as a leader.
Each meeting provides a unique opportunity for you to grow as a speaker. Our members take on active speaking roles that challenges them to use vocal variety, engage their audience, and to speak with confidence. All while receiving valuable feedback from other club members. With our feedback process, we strive to improve together, and to help each other reach our full potential.
As a member of Bay Ridge Toastmasters, you will have access to Toastmaster's comprehensive Pathway Curriculum, designed to help you advance in a communication path of your choice. And with our encouraging community, you can feel confident and at ease as you take the stage and work towards mastery.
We invite you to join us as a guest to experience what we have to offer. Our meetings are currently held virtually on Zoom and take place on the first and third Wednesdays of each month from 7:00-8:30 PM. The Zoom room opens at 6:55 PM. To learn more about our club and receive up-to-date meeting details, please reach out to us via our website at https://www.toastmasters.org/Find-a-Club/00008131-00008131, and one of our club officers will be in touch within two days.
