table topics throw-down
Each year we host a "Table Topics Throw-Down", celebrating and challenging club winners. Each contestant is welcomed to the stage to present a 1-2 minute impromptu speech. The epitome of speaking skills...thinking on your feet, inspiring and entertaining. There is even a fabulous trophy!
dragon's den
Having produced many District Champions, each year Just Pros hosts a "Dragon's Den", inviting all Area and Division Champions to run their speech and receive expert feedback from the "Dragon's" themselves. The opportunity to practice on a stage with an Advanced Club has propelled many to victory.
Toastmasters Contest circuit
Just Pros has continued to produce Area, Division and District winners in the annual Toastmasters International Speech and Evaluation Contests.
