Dynamis Speech & Debate was founded in 2020 by Josh and Robin Axelberd who have been involved in Stoa since 2013. Dynamis is the Greek word meaning explosive or abundant power. The word is used in Acts 1:8 when Jesus tells his disciples, “You will receive power (dynamis) when the Holy Spirit comes on you and you will be my witnesses...to the ends of the earth.” Our words have power. When we learn to speak boldly, we can change the world for Christ.

Speech Debate Juniors

Welcome to Dynamis Speech & Debate!

Dynamis is a Stoa club which offers two locations: Tuesdays in Duluth and Wednesdays in Buford. We also offer a JV program for students ages older 10 to 13. We are currently holding virtual information sessions for the 2025-2026 school year. During these sessions you’ll learn about each program, hear about the student benefits and parent responsibilities, and have any questions answered. Please contact Robin Axelberd at DynamisATL@gmail.com to register for a session.

For details about class locations and times, check out our website, DynamisATL.club, under the "Get Involved" tab or "JV Debate" tab.
