Our Services
Welcome to DVS!
I’m Ashley Dawson, a professional singer, teacher, and working musician with degrees in vocal performance and years of experience helping singers build strong, sustainable technique.
My approach combines:
• Healthy sustainable technique
• Practical, modern application
• Clear explanations (no vague imagery or confusion)
• A supportive, encouraging environment
Whether you’re singing pop, rock, musical theatre, or classical repertoire, my goal is the same:
A voice that feels free, reliable, and expressive.
