What Happens at a Free Public Speaking Open Session?

Once a month, we open the doors to our virtual community so that our members can bring their friends, show off how much fun it is to become better at speaking, and welcome new voices into the SSA family.

This is a Skills Drills Showcase - a live, interactive session guided by TEDx Coach Cathey Armillas and Global Speaking Champion Marc Williams. You’ll experience the same creative, game-like drills our members practice every week.

  • Practice storytelling and communication skills in an atmosphere that feels like game night with friends
  • Build confidence in social events, meetings, conferences, or on stage
  • Experience our flagship Skills Drills™ method firsthand
  • Meet the coaches and community who make SSA special
  • Get 30-day access to our online portal of resources, past sessions, and community feed
