Opening the 2025/2026 Term: Speak Up & Toast On!

On July 14, 2025, the BASF Toastmasters Club kicks off another exciting year of speeches, storytelling, and rhetorical finesse! The newly appointed club officers are ready to do more than just handle logistics — they’re here to empower speakers, whether they command the stage with eloquence or bring a touch of endearing hesitation.

Join us online or in person, whether you click in with your mouse or walk through the doors on your own two feet, your presence makes the difference! Expect insightful words, expressive gestures, a few misunderstandings, and maybe even some revelatory moments. Missing out means forfeiting the chance to plunge into the thrilling world of public speaking. So, rally your energy, tune in, or show up — the stage awaits, and the toasts are already crisped to perfection!

Not foolish but creative — our online meetings in April

Our meetings in April will be in “classic” Toastmasters style. You can expect interesting speeches, an extraordinary portion of entertainment in Table Topics and valuable feedback supporting everyone in improving public speaking and leadership skills.
Starting her journey with Toastmasters Amina is going to present her Icebreaker and introduces herself to the Club. Working on the path of “Visionary Communication” Ximeng is going to focus on “Effective Body Language” — for sure a challenge when using a webcam. Everyone is welcome to get better in impromptu speaking as Table Topics will be part of each meeting.
Wanna contribute with a “Creative Mind”? Choose whatever you like for a short presentation in the beginning of the meeting and train yourself to catch the audience’s attention. As usual meetings will be held with Skype and guests are welcome without any obligations. If you have questions feel free to contact us!
