Speakeasy Toastmasters Club


SPEAKEASY TOASTMASTERS CLUB- BAHRAIN


About us:
                          We are a group of expat Indian ‘Blue Collar’ workers who came together to form the SPEAKEASY Toastmasters club in 2010-2011.We had a dream. We dared to dream of being able to communicate fluently in the English language and we were willing and ready to put in the effort to achieve it.This was actually born of the experience of a few of our charter members who had  the privilege of attending English communication classes with the ILA, the Indian Ladies Association, in 2010. This is an annual program, which they conduct as a part of their community outreach program.

                           Mr.Prashanth Shetty an Electrical Works Technician was one of the participants in that program. He wanted to take his learning further. He was driven by a dream and a desire to continue the learning, to polish his communication skills, to become better as a communicator. It is his tireless efforts that brought us together and with the help of Dr. Usha Devarajan a dedicated and committed Toastmaster, we dared to move forward, in our quest and found the path to the realization of our dream, as Toastmasters.

                            Our club was chartered on April 1st. 2011. TM Prashanth Shetty took charge as the President of the newly chartered SPEAKEASY TOASTMASTERS CLUB on 1st. July 2011 and he with the support of a group of senior Toastmasters, sponsors and mentors, and an enthusiastic team of club officers, armed with an open mind and eager heart, took the club through its first year, achieving success in every aspect of the Toastmasters Club program.

                            On the 24th  June 2011 HE Dr. Mohan Kumar, the Indian Ambassador to the Kingdom of Bahrain was the chief guest at the ceremonial ‘CHARTERING’ of the Speakeasy Toastmasters Club, held at the Palace Hotel in Adliya.
That was a very inspiring and motivating moment for us to have our Ambassador with us on such a momentous occasion.

                          We are celebrating our journey of success on 13th. July 2012. We have completed 50 successful meetings. This is a landmark achievement for us. Even more so as we believe that we are one of the first clubs in the history of Toastmasters Clubs in Bahrain to achieve the Presidents Distinguished club award with 10/10 DCP points in its very first year of chartering.

                            
We invite and welcome all those who dare to dream of becoming effective communicators and efficient leaders to our club. Come and join us and experience the difference.
We had dared to dream and we achieved it and now we are committed to excellence and sharing this amazing platform of TOASTMASTERS with you.To know more about the benefits of Toastmasters, please visit www.toastmasters.org
