Turn bathroom concerts into standing ovations!

I have studied voice with the guidance of Ivan Mihaljevic and cannot begin to express how much he has brought to my game as a singer/vocalist.
He is such a gifted artist and as a vocal coach he is unparalleled. His knowledge of the voice and its mechanics is immeasurable.
I am and will continue to study with Ivan for a very long time.

With all my heart, thank you my Ivan

I’ve started taking lessons from Ivan after a lot of pressure from management, looking for good coaches and Joe Lynn Turner recommended him.
and been doing around 4-5 lessons, then I had to go on tour with Pain, and I noticed that I could hit the high notes without popping a vein in my brain. And I wasn’t even sore in my throat. Now I’m waiting for hernia surgery to heal then back to his lessons.
Thank you Ivan for your skills

Ivan has been a wonderful teacher! He has so much knowledge to share and is really easy and comfortable to work with. With him I’ve started to learn about my voice in a very practical way and also I’ve accomplished things with my voice that I thought I couldn’t do.

In only a couple of lessons, Ivan helped me learn things that made it so much easier for me to perform concerts. All the notes come out much more naturally, I sing louder and I am much more confident. I am very satisfied and his approach to singing is really professional and he explains everything properly. My favorite thing is that he visually shows and explains everything that should be done.

Ivan was one of the first CVT instructors I met. He was the most helpful teacher who enabled me learn the CVT model inside and out. His attention to detail is very good and he understands the physical, anatomical side of the voice production much better than many other instructors I worked with, which made it much easier for me to learn. He was a big part of my journey as a teacher and a singer, helping shape my understanding of the voice and helping me learn to make new sounds. His open mindedness and willingness to learn and grow has been inspirational to me as a singer and a voice teacher. I recommend him to singers interested in learning to sing with a CVT instructor.

Ivan is a great listener and he possesses the ability to explain things in a simple, yet precise manner. He is very encouraging too and offers great tools and valuable advice for whichever style you want to sing. I really enjoy having lessons with him and I cannot recommend him enough!

Ivan has 2 qualities in his teaching that I appreciate a lot. The first is that he is very educational and scientific. The second is that he is friendly and supportive. My singing has improved so much and my knowledge grows every day because of him. We worked on support and twang which gave me more stamina and consistency. We also worked on correct vowels for each mode which are very important if you want to achieve that wow moment on high notes.
Thank you so much Ivan! You showed me a whole new world of singing!

I’d highly recommend Ivan as a coach. Not only is he highly qualified and well studied in vocal technique, but he’s a very skilled musician and singer, which gives him both the theoretical and lived experience to draw from. He was personable, patient and receptive to my vocal goals and offered really helpful strategies to get the sounds and pitches I was looking for. Do your voice a favour and book in with him, you won’t regret it!

I have gone through many vocal instructors and I have never been completely satisfied with them. They were actually good singers, but did not know how to transfer knowledge and did not know how to explain what was actually happening (from the perspective of anatomy, i.e. the vocal folds and other muscles that we use when we sing). Ivan has an individualized approach and in the lessons we only work on what interests me. I always get answers that I could not figure out on my own. It’s really cool to discover new things and progress with such a teacher.

Ivan is a fantastic vocal coach who has expanded my singing abilities and my knowledge about how the voice works. His expertise, patience, and creative approach have made each lesson enjoyable and productive. I highly recommend him to anyone looking to learn new techniques and enhance their vocal skills.

Working with Ivan I have come to realize things about my voice that were previously suppressed because they were taught to me as “incorrect”. With his professional and very meticulous approach I was able to learn things like vocal distortion in no time! Always adapting his way of working to my needs and wishes along with his immense knowledge and background he is able to bring the best out of me!

Ivan is the best guitar teacher and vocal coach I know. He has taught me a ton of things. Excellent and kind guy. A king. I can’t wait for the next lesson!

Ivan is an extraordinary instructor. I first came to him because I was struggling to perform a solo for a piece I had been asked to audition for in an upcoming show. I had gone back through my past coaching, met in-person with a couple of coaches, and just about exhausted myself working through different online tutorials. Everything I was trying either created unwanted tension, or wasn’t generating enough progress. When I first met Ivan he created a safe and supportive environment, and immediately gave me the confidence that we’d succeed together. His approach had me quickly hitting high notes without tension, and his methods helped me to understand exactly what I needed to work on and overcome to sing with confidence. I can’t recommend him enough.

Ivan is supportive, always 100% factual and practical in approach. He’s probably read all the studies and research on the voice ‘cos he uncovers the mysterious singing terms with normal language and logic. At the same time he’s very outcome-driven so his lessons don’t remind of a monologue speech. Best part: he asks me what I want to improve at and he doesn’t question my stylistic choices!

Ivan was recommended to me when I wanted to work on rough vocal effects. I found him to be a wonderful voice teacher, both kind, patient and full of knowledge, and he helped me understand and discover the way I can work with my voice to apply distorted sounds. He is a proffesional and I recommend him 100% to all those who are interested in working with their voices at a proffesional level.

During the classes with Ivan I have progressed at a speed that I had never witnessed before. He is a very knowledgeable and experienced singing teacher and I can certainly assure that his teaching method can help anyone to achieve their singing goals.
