Calabasas Toastmasters
Message from the Club
President

Welcome to the Calabasas Toastmasters Web Site!
As our name implies, we are a Toastmasters group that meets in Calabasas.
Why Toastmasters?
Although Yahoo! classifies our club us as a social organization, Toastmasters
is a proven method of improving your public speaking and leadership
skills, going back to the 1920's. (Yes, the program's been updated
since then.) Some instruction, some practice, some feedback in a supportive
environment, and you're on your way. The Toastmasters method is effective,
it's efficient, and it's economical. (Semi-annual dues cost less than a tank of gas for an SUV: they're popular out here. Actually, depending on the SUV, ANNUAL dues cost less than a tank of gas.)
Why Calabasas Toastmasters?
Calabasas is an exceedingly pleasant suburban community. That would
describe our members as well. As organizations go, we're pretty darn
social, to give Yahoo! its due.
We love guests; all of our members started out that way. When you
visit (hint, hint), you may find the skill level of our members intimidating,
but trust me, they didn't start out that way. In fact, no matter how
inarticulate, timid, or heavily-accented (we get a lot of international
tech types) you may be, we've brought up someone who was much worse
than you are. So pay us a visit! You have nothing to lose but a disability.
-John Stesney, ATMB
President, Calabasas Toastmasters
