If you’re looking for a vocal coach…Stop. You found him.Vasili is absolutely incredible. For years I thought I was a baritone, as I was told by other coaches. But within a few minutes, he smiles and says, “You’re actually a tenor.” I was shocked because I never thought I’d ever hear those words.What happened over the next few lessons completely transformed by relationship with singing. I found my true voice, a voice that wowed my friends and family and gave me so much more inspiration to write music that I would LOVE to sing.Not going to lie, Vasili is very honest and will push you forward. There’s no sugar coating here, there is technique, work and diligence but also creativity, ingenuity and passion. He’s very smart, having 10 different ways to communicate the same concept, so that if I don’t get it on the first try (which is typical lol) then he will help me understand it a different way.If you hire him you’re going to find very, very quickly that he delivers beyond what most vocal coaches even attempt. He will reach into you and pull out a voice buried deep inside. He will help you shape your sound into a wave of music. He will transform you in the best signer you can possibly be.Like I said above, stop searching. You found him.Thank you so much Vasili for unlocking my potential and helping me discover my true and powerful voice.JJ
I was a guitarist playing in a covers band with a strong desire to take on vocal duties.I was fortunate enough to find Vasili who has given me all the confidence and tools to make my dream a reality. After just six months of lessons with Vasili I stepped onto the stage of a famous london venue as lead vocalist , enjoying an unbelievably positive crowd response.Many thanks Vasili for making this possible.Alex Green
Vasili is a master of Bel Canto, supported by his superb technique and lyrical sensitivity, which he is able to impart through his deeply researched and well delivered teaching methods. I have benefited greatly from his tutelage and wide operatic repertoire.
Vasili is an incredibly talented vocal coach with a unique approach which yields results beyond any expectation. His knowledge has no boundaries in terms of music genres and always manages to bring out the best in every pupil. Would recommend to anyone!
Vasilli is a phenomenal singer but more than that the way he teaches my young daughter about everything else that singing brings ie confidence, poise, strength is wonderful and highly skilled enabling her to be in full command of her craft. I highly recommend him.
Vasili is a truly amazing coach who managed to get the best out of us (and our voices as the extension of our souls). My partner and I worked with him both on our signing and speaking voices and Vasili taught us the necessary techniques and gave us the right mindset and psychological support. He uses lots of helpful metaphors and innovative exercises and is full of positive, encouraging energy in his sessions. We can highly recommend him to anyone wanting to improve their vocal skills.
Where do I start? Vasilis is everything I dreamt of in a singing coach. I trained for years until late into my teens, but then stopped for nearly 15 years. I didn’t want to start at the basics again, but also didn’t have the same range or ability I used to. My partner bought me lessons with Vasilis for Christmas as a surprise (I had previously found him and thought he sounds amazing, but too good for me). I showed up to the studio and there he was, and a few minutes in he already had me at a level I thought I wasn’t capable of. Not only does he teach you singing techniques, but he instils a new level of confidence in you. He speaks to me in a language I understand, he doesn’t let me come in and faff or give excuses, but guides me gently and tells me I’m capable of the notes. Encouragement and realism. He’s quickly picked up my range, old and new and has me focusing on breathing, tongue placement, voice placement etc. All the little things you forget over the years. And to top it all off, I can then pick songs that fill my heart with so much joy. I walk away feel light, fulfilled, proud and confident after every class. Heart fully open. Thank you for giving me that and bringing my voice back!
What a wonderful human being. I learnt a significant amount which has improved me immediately, in just one lesson. Highly recommended.
I was really nervous before going to the London vocal coach. I had never sung before and had grown up with a stammer which had made me conscious about my voice. During the first lesson I felt a release of a tension I never knew I had. After a few lessons I began to see my voice in a very different way. It was no longer something I wanted to conceal but an instrument that was my own. Vasili’s lessons have given me more than I could ever have hoped for and I would recommend him to anyone. He is a very gifted teacher.
I wish I could choose more stars. In just a few lessons, I have gone from having lost faith in my singing to having a completely new understanding on multiple levels. Vasili is clear and concise when teaching technique. He is skilled at correcting bad habits while at the same time being encouraging and making you truly excited about singing. He doesn’t get stuck in teaching only one style. I can’t recommend him highly enough! Work with him and it will change your life!
Thank you for everything you teach me Vasili! I didn't learn in almost 2 months from another teacher, how much I learn from you in a few hours.I liked every detail you taught me and your personality is nice to , because have everything, seriosity, you're very trustly person and respectful.I appreciate it a lot because it is transmitted that you put your soul into everything you do and you don't like to waste time at all or in vain. You are very expressive and very explicit, but especially very confident, that's why you can learn very quickly how to improve your vocal techniques, correct difficulties in how to sing and absolutely everything ,you need to become a true vocal soloist. . Every detail of your techniques made me understand what no one has ever explained or shown me, not even another vocal coach. I am proud to have such a good vocal coach in London who really does his job and puts his soul into everything he does, but especially he knows how to encourage us to gain self-confidence. I have no words .I will keep in mind, everything you teach me and I will remember everytime I sing or I do exercises.Many thanks! 🤗I wish you all the best from the world.And of course Very Happy Christmas 🎄 and New Year! 🙏🤗😘
I asked Vasilli to coach my 9 year old daughter for professional auditions. Vasilli is kind, patient and really constructive, helpful to my daughters age and abilities. Lessons were both structured and inspiring. Couldn’t recommend him enough!
We invited Vasili to come to do an online teaching session for over 30 students and he nailed it. Not only did all of the participants learn something new about their vocals and the singing but they all gave feedback saying that Vasili was incredibly fun, professional and interactive. I'm not sure there's much else we can ask of from a teacher.
Vasili Karpiak is an amazing professional teacher. I have toured all over the world and trained professionally for the past 20 years, and my lessons with Vasili brought my vocal quality to another level! He is excellent at explaining techniques and has given me the confidence to try new music styles. He is passionate about the arts and it shows in the way he teaches. I am so glad that I was able to take lessons from this phenomenal teacher! If you are looking for a voice teacher that will make you smile, feel confident, expand your range, improve your breathing and help you connect to the notes and text, than look no further! Vasili is the teacher for you!!!!
An absolutely amazing Teacher and Mentor...We started lessons with Vasili hoping to become stronger and more capable singers. It would be an understatement to say he his a very experienced tutor. Making us as students feel very comfortable and motivated. He is very good at explaining how to use your voice correctly and be more confident and effective while singing. He has taught us how to be better performers and artists; as he is a truly amazing guide for us both as students.There really has been a drastic improvement in our vocal abilities and I am sure we will only get better and more successful as singers and performers with thanks to his help.
Excelente..!!! Vasili es muy agradable y se da a entender muy bien,me hizo entender como corregir mis errores Y descubrí lo real de mi voz ...Creí que el idioma sería un factor pero no lo fue estaría encantado de tomar otra clase ...
Vasili is such an amazing vocal coach that understands the deeper truth of the voice and will help you OWN your TRUE voice. Always supportive and warm. Thank you for all the teachings 🙏🏻
We have classes with Vasiliy for more than four years going through the Voice Kids UK and other experiences. He is an excellent motivating coach, singing himself well. His classes are never boring with best abilities of the voice extracted and enhanced. Opera is obviously at top, but not only that. Everything vocally sound will be great.
So i turned up for my first vocal lesson ever, being an over 40 year old male , I'm thinking I'm too old for this gig , played guitar for many years, with some great vocalists , but never really tried to sing, apart from in the car when I'm alone , embarrassed zero confidence feeling stupid and almost wondering how I got to even book a vocal lesson, I mean come on , singing isn't for me , I sound terrible, any how, I'm waiting outside the rehearsal rooms in like the steinway studios, ok I'm about to do a runner , this is way above my grade .... but I'm caught on the way out, by Vasili , he says hello, and already the stress is starting to drain away, awesome karma right from the off , so we begin , within seconds I feel more and more relaxed , he understands my lack of confidence Im a beginner , patient fun encouraging, zip an hour into various fun call and response piano training and physical techniques , and I'm actually hitting some notes , and I don’t think they sound too bad anymore - that was like 1 lesson.I book again for another lesson in the following week, as i wait again outside another great rehearsal facility in central London , out walks a future star operatic singer, I recognize him fro the TV, he was training with Vasili before my lesson, I'm like wow, this guy teaches the stars, and now he has to adjust his lesson back down to my beginners level, which he does effortlessly -, one of those rare people in life , don't hesitate to book a lesson , its life changing , if your a beginner and thinking about singing , call this guy , he is amazingThe lessons gave me a huge amount of confidence , made me release that songs I used to shy away from, as they were too high for my voice, now are my play ground, Vasili has brought music back into my soul - and for that I can not thank him enough
I find Vasili to be an extremely professional and perceptive vocal coach. He brings an astounding level of knowledge and insight into every session. He enables learning and advancement, while encouraging individuality and self-awareness. He is skilled, accomplished and versatile and truly a pleasure to work with!
I have just had two lessons with Vasili to improve my speaking for my YouTube videos. I and others can already see a dramatic improvement in my presentation style. He's fun, engaging and over delivers. Highly recommended.
