Seriously Funny: How to Add a Little Ha-Ha to Your Blah-Blah

We all love a good laugh — but when it comes to public speaking, humour can feel like walking a tightrope. Used well, it can elevate your speech, win over an audience, and make your message unforgettable. Used poorly… well, let’s just say silence isn’t always golden.

How do you actually be funny on purpose?

What gets a laugh? What falls flat? And how can you use humour in a way that feels natural, authentic, and effective — even if you’re not a “funny person”?

In this playful and practical session, you’ll learn how humour works, how to use it to connect with your audience, and how a well-placed laugh can make your message more powerful and persuasive. Because once you’ve made people laugh, they’re far more likely to listen.

Whether you're new to public speaking or just want to bring a little more sparkle to your delivery — this is a night you don’t want to miss!

THIS IS A CURATED GUEST EVENT
Join us tonight at Port Melbourne Toastmasters as we explore how to use humour to connect, engage, and leave your audience smiling — for all the right reasons.

Get ready for a session that will help you find your funny and speak with confidence and charisma.
