From Samir Malak, Area Director, K35
As we were preparing for the Area Contest, a boy approached me, his face awash with consternation. “When are you going to be finished?” I advised we would certainly be done by 10pm. “But we are having Karate at 8pm in that room.”
“Let me look into that.” I responded, with a smile.

London Victorians are delighted to welcome the 2015 World Champion of Public Speaking to their club for a packed evening of learning and fun!
Mohammed Qahtani competed against 33,000 competitors from across the world and was eventually crowned 2015 World Champion of Public Speaking at the Las Vegas Toastmasters conference. His humorous speech ‘The Power of Words’ was a personal take about how events in his life have been influenced by the words of others. This award is a truly amazing achievement for someone that once had a severe speech impediment.
In this two part workshop, participants will learn to overcome adversity and to live up their dreams in the same way as Mohammed did. Mohammed will also share with us his tips and techniques for crafting humorous speeches.
Live up to your dreams
Injecting more humour into your speeches
Dinner – NOW SOLD OUT!
We’re very excited that in addition to delivering a workshop, Mohammed has accepted to join us for dinner so that attendees have further opportunities to speak directly with him. So come and have a wonderful 3 course Korean & Japanese dinner with a World Champion of Public Speaking. To spice up the dinner we’ll also be doing some humorous table topics as well! This is an opportunity that’s unlikely to be repeated soon.
Both meat and vegetarian options will be available. Dinner attendees will be contacted closer to the date for their exact menu choices.
The workshop will take place on 10th May 2016 from 6pm in St James the Less Church, Pimlico, in the upstairs Street Room. Please check the ‘Where we meet’ page for the London or further information.
