Michael is a very talented vocal coach. He is very good at communicating scheduling and any concerns you may have. He is very passionate about music and helping his students succeed. I take online courses with Michael which is something new for me but I really enjoyed it. You also get a copy of your lesson which you can use to work on.

About Mike's Virtual Voice & Piano Studio
Hello- My name is Michael Dashefsky I have worked as a performing arts professional for over 8+ years. My Training: I received my Bachelor of Fine Arts in Musical Theatre Performance from California State University Fullerton. My Professional Experience: I have performed as a vocalist and piano player for : Disney, Universal, Holland America Cruise Line and Princess Cruise Lines. I also sang on a Broadway Style Christmas National Tour and also performed in several regional theatre productions in Southern California. I have also worked in Chicago as an assistant music supervisor for the Beatles and Shakespeare production of As You Like it where I played piano, sang, music directed and played a character in the show. I am a member of the Actors Equity Association. We can come up with an action plan to work on your current strengths and areas for improvement. All ages and all skill sets welcome. Why study with me? I am directly working in the performing arts industry and I am not just a teacher who solely focuses on teaching students. I am an active performer myself and I bring my experience as a professional in the industry to each student I work with to teach them industry specific techniques. Lets make some music!
Reviews
I've been taking music lessons throughout my life with a various different teachers, but Mikes lesson was probably the best I've ever had. He did really good going through the different vocal techniques and exercises. By the end there was somehow a VERY noticeable change in my singing. He also managed to put a ton of information into the lesson without making it feel rushed.
Michael is incredible. He is very motivational. We went through some exercises and he was very good at telling me what part of my voice we were working on. He had suggestions on which songs I should work on next. Can’t wait until my next lesson.
The class was incredible, and Michael is really a joy to work with, as well as knowledgeable! I had an incredible time and not only sounded better afterward but felt better when singing, too. I'm being taught how to strain less when I sing and how to expand my range, all by someone who creates a friendly, comfortable environment. The lesson was also incredibly fun, too!
Mike is a great instructor! He was able to work with me at my own level and pace. He gave several tips on how to improve and by the end of the lesson I already felt more confident and comfortable with my singing.
I had my first lesson with Mike today and can confidently say I was very pleased. I have a gig coming up this weekend and I feel much more confident going into it now than I did before our lesson. He did an amazing job in listening for things to fix in my voice and focusing on what I wanted to fix. I really have been wanting to work on belting and he definitely got me there. I plan to continue working with him so I can get more consistent and confident in my belting as well as control it better. Thanks to Mike, I am much more confident for my next performance!
Mike is so nice and really reassured me and my voice as this was my first lesson in years! I can’t wait to continue to work with him!
Just completed my first lesson with Mike and I am happy to say I will be continuing lessons with him. Plenty of learning in a 30-minute time period as well as plenty of things to practice outside of lessons. The price was worth the experience!
Mike was very responsive, and very clear and good with helping understand something during a drill if you had trouble or any other problem.
I love how responsive Michael is! He works well with my young daughter and clearly has experience working with small children. I am excited about this working relationship and how it will develop. He is also highly responsive and flexible.
Mike went ABOVE AND BEYOND!!! He helped me surprise my girlfriend via SKYPE. It went so well that my girl almost started crying! I honestly would recommend him for any event! Thank you so much Mike!!!
