About Us

District 52

District 52 is a part of the Toastmasters International organization.  We represent and serve the entire San Fernando Valley including Burbank and Glendale, downtown Los Angeles, and the Santa Clarita Valley.

The purpose of this district is to support individual member clubs of Toastmasters International within the boundaries of the areas of Los Angeles, Burbank, Glendale, Santa Clarita, Glendale, San Fernando Valley Communities, Foothills, Tujunga, North Hollywood, Studio City, Toluca Lake, and San Fernando.

Now, greater numbers of people have the opportunity to benefit from the Toastmasters educational program:

  • Enjoy unlimited personal growth
  • Work on networking in a small and supportive environment
  • Practice writing speeches and presenting in a group setting
  • Gain a competitive advantage in the workplace
  • Build self-confidence and self-awareness
  1. Become a more effective speaker

    An integral part of Toastmasters is giving and receiving feedback. When you speak at a club, a fellow Toastmaster will provide you with feedback to help you grow your public speaking skills. With the Pathways learning experience, you will have access to an education program that will teach you the skills required to become a more effective speaker.
  1.  Improve my presentation skills

    Toastmasters isn’t only for improving your public speaking or communication skills. By giving speeches and working through a learning path in the Pathways learning experience, you will learn how to structure your presentation and incorporate tone and body language to truly engage with your audience.
  2. Improve my leadership skills

    Since Toastmasters clubs are run by members, each club offers volunteer leadership positions. When you combine this with the leadership skills you can learn through the Pathways learning experience, you can not only build skills, but can gain valuable experience leading a team.
  3. Meet my professional goals
    By improving your communication, public speaking, and leadership skills, you are building a better version of yourself. Whether you are hoping to land that big promotion or simply want to feel more confident when communicating with coworkers, Toastmasters can help teach the skills you need!
