Welcome to
Blue Danube Speakers
Rhetoric Club L_nz
PRACTICE speaking in front of an audience
At Blue Danube Speakers (a Toastmasters club) in Linz we meet to practice our public speaking skills. Through our club we improve ourselves, strengthen our self-esteem, and learn leadership and organisation skills. Would you like to join one of our meetings and see what it's like? We are a non-profit club and warmly welcome guests at every meeting. Do yourself a favour and attend our meetings.
Presentations, Public Speaking
Practice public speaking in front of a small to medium-sized group (normally around 10 - 20 people), in a safe and friendly atmosphere.
You can speak in English or German.
We are committed to make everyone feel comfortable.
Impromptu Speaking
Learn to react confidently to tricky questions and prepare yourself for spontaneous encounters, and unplanned elevator pitches. Whether you are an ambitious project leader, a start-up founder or an employee filling in for an absent colleague, this is your opportunity.
Honest
Feedback
Club members will give you motivating feedback on what you did well and where you could improve. You will also learn how to give constructive feedback to others, in a positive way - a valuable leadership skill for any professional.
Mentoring
Once you decide to become a member of our club and you start your path of becoming a confident speaker, our experienced club members will be there to mentor and guide you. The club members stay on your side, give you valuable advice and assist you to develop your speaking skills.
Who we are
