About
Your Speaking Coach
For over 10 years, I've helped people transform their relationship with public speaking. My journey started with my own fear of the stage — and overcoming it became my life's mission.
As a former theater director, journalist, and practitioner of body-oriented techniques, I bring a unique blend of artistry, psychology, and practical communication skills to every session.
I've trained 300+ individuals one-on-one, from startup founders pitching investors to corporate executives presenting at board meetings. My corporate clients include GE, Sber, Johnson & Johnson, Bacardi, and BKS.
Vasilyev Charisma Academy is incorporated in India. I'm bringing this craft — built across a decade of work abroad — to Indian speakers with deep respect for the country's voices, audiences, and long oratorical traditions. The method adapts to you, not the other way around.
The Method
The Four Pillars of Charisma in Public Speaking
Most courses teach only voice and rhetoric — two pillars. My method strengthens all four simultaneously, so the structure actually holds under pressure.
Mindset
Your CONFIDENCE and self-belief. Your relationship with yourself, your audience, and the act of speaking. Without the right psychological foundation, nothing else works.
Rhetoric
Your mastery of messages and words. Planning, structure, improvisation, and memory. The art of making your message clear, compelling, and impossible to ignore.
Technique
Voice, body language, breathing, and artistry. The physical instruments that carry your message to the audience.
State
Managing your energy, focus, and composure. Learning to channel nervousness into presence and power. Art of being calm yet powerful
“65% of people fear public speaking. Most courses ignore this. I put it at the center — and work through it, not around it.”
