Edge Up Talk Lab

from $0.00

Grades 4–7

6-Week Speaking Studio

Find an idea. Build a message. Own the stage.

Edge Up Talk Lab is a 6-week speaking studio designed for students who want to move beyond simply speaking clearly and learn how to communicate ideas with confidence, structure, and impact.

Students learn how to take an idea, perspective, experience, or story and transform it into a compelling short talk through storytelling, organization, research, delivery practice, and feedback.

More than a public speaking class, Edge Up Talk Lab helps students discover what they want to say, why it matters, and how to communicate it in a way that connects with an audience.

  • enjoy sharing ideas and opinions

  • want to become stronger, more confident speakers

  • have stories, interests, or perspectives they want to express

  • want to improve storytelling and presentation skills

  • are ready to write, revise, practice, and receive feedback

  • are interested in debate, leadership, entrepreneurship, or future academic opportunities

No prior speaking experience is required. Students should be ready to participate, collaborate, practice, and refine their work.
