What we’re about
Welcome to Toast of Petaluma — Where You Learn to Speak Up Without Throwing Up! 🎤
Legend has it… that somewhere in Petaluma, a group of (mostly normal) people gather bi-weekly to practice public speaking, boost confidence, and accidentally become great storytellers, leaders, and communicators.
Spoiler: That group is us.
Whether you're:
Terrified of public speaking 😱
Trying to stop saying "uhhh" "like" or "ya know" in every other word 🤦
Gearing up for a big presentation, wedding toast, or alien invasion briefing 👽
Or just want to meet cool people while leveling up your life 💬
...this is the place.
We’re part of Toastmasters International, but think of us as your personal gym for communication — minus the sweaty gym clothes (unless that’s your thing, we don’t judge).
Each meeting includes:
✅ Prepared speeches
✅ Fun off-the-cuff speaking challenges
✅ Supportive feedback
✅ Lots of laughs, zero pressure
We meet the 1st & 3rd Thursday from 7:00–8:30 PM at:
📍 New Life, 1315 Rand St., Petaluma
Bring your voice, your stories, and your awkwardness. We’ll handle the rest.
No experience needed. Just show up, speak up, and glow up. ✨
