The Icebreaker is the first speech you give as a Toastmaster, a 4-6 minute speech in which you introduce yourself to the club. It’s such an important speech that experienced Toastmasters will circle back to give it again after having been in the program for years because being able to briefly introduce yourself is such a valuable skill for life and business. But your *first* Icebreaker is particularly important as an initiation into the Toastmasters experience.
If we haven’t yet done so, we will be introducing you to Pathways Basecamp, the part of the Toastmasters International website where you can gain access to all the educational materials. Meanwhile, here are PDF versions of the course materials for the Icebreaker that you’re encouraged to read.
