Beach & Business Toastmasters is an award-winning club that has helped people from all walks of life become better speakers and leaders for over 15 years.

We provide constructive feedback in a fun and supportive environment—all in a self-paced, and casual program. Let us help you learn to speak and lead with confidence! For anyone at any level who wants to improve:

  • Speaking and Writing Skills
  • Confidence & Comfort in Speaking Extemporaneously
  • Professional and Personal Growth
  • Leadership Skills

As our name implies, we are a group of professionals looking to improve our public speaking skills and incorporate lessons learned into our business careers. However, not everyone is a “professional.” We aim to provide a safe environment for anyone to practice and learn about public speaking.

Toastmasters will give you the skills and confidence you need to effectively express yourself in any situation. Whether you are a tenured manager, student, young professional, someone who is looking to advance their career or looking to make an impact in your community, Toastmasters is the most efficient, supportive, and enjoyable way of gaining great communication skills. By learning to effectively formulate and express your ideas, you open an entirely new world of possibilities You’ll improve your interpersonal communication, be more persuasive and confident when giving speeches, and speak more confidently in front of clients and executives.

Our noon meetings usually begin with a “Toastmaster” introducing the group, welcoming guests and allowing those with assigned roles a chance to introduce themselves and explain their roles. The Toastmaster may also start with a brief speech creating a theme for the meeting. After the Toastmaster speaks, there are typically one or two prepared speeches. Followed by “Table Topics” – a session that provides all attendees a chance to practice impromptu speaking. Finally, designated club members provide formal evaluations of the speeches given, so everyone can have a chance to listen-in and learn. 

Participation is voluntary throughout the meeting. Since we are virtual, our meetings are much more laid back than traditional in-person meetings. We are a small group, usually 5-10 members at each meeting.

Since 1924 Toastmasters International has helped over 4 million people around the world become better communicators and leaders. Our club has earned the President’s Distinguished Award for the past several years – the highest award a Toastmasters club can achieve. Invest in yourself and come join us for a fun lunchtime meeting.
