A Toastmasters club in downtown Washington, DC
Are you trying to overcome your fear of speaking, learn how to make presentations, lead a meeting, and get ahead in your career? Then Capital Toastmasters I is the club for you!
We are a local club (#876) of Toastmasters International, which has been dedicated to self-improvement in public speaking and organizational leadership since 1924.
Capital Toastmasters I, founded in 1950, is a community club: we are not sponsored by any employer and are open to all members of the greater Washington community. We meet at the American Bar Association, 740 15th Street, NW, 9th Floor, Washington, DC 20005.
If you are interested in attending a meeting, please see Visit Our Club to learn about scheduling a visit, or contact our Vice President/Membership, Han-Huei "Crystal" Tsay, or call her at (571) 594-7442. Guests are always welcome!
If you would like to see some examples of how our members use their Toastmasters training and experience IRL (in real life), hit Capital Toastmasters in Action and have a look!
Capital Toastmasters I is pleased to hold the designation of Select Distinguished Club from Toastmasters International in recognition of our active educational and organizational program.
