About Rifte
I'm the Founder of Riff-Off, and a proud professional vocal coach today, but my journey wasn't always easy. During my early years of singing, I have faced waves of bullying and rejection, people saying I would never make it and that I had no voice. Years and years later after heavy discipline and taking vocal coaching lessons with some of the best, I have put in the work to prove that dreams can be achieved if you put your mind to it. Since then, I have competed on The Voice, and won dozens of singing competitions nationally. I was never lucky into success, I fought for it! I'm here to show you that YOU have the power as well!
Why I Coach
After my episode of The Voice aired, I experienced a wonderful rush of happiness, but I also quickly realized that the spotlight is temporary. Fame is fleeting, but the positive impact we make on others is priceless. I understand every stage of self-doubt. I know what it feels like to question your abilities or wonder if you will ever be ready. With the right support, physically, mentally, and emotionally, you can transform not only your voice but also your confidence!

Reviews for Rifte
Real experiences shared by Riff Students.
Rifte has helped me to realize my potential as an alto. I had been taught to believe that singing high notes was more impressive than low notes as a female singer. However, Rifte taught me to think otherwise. He also helped me discover my natural vibrato. Great vocal coach!
5 stars Rifte has given me feedback according to my voice and helps me be more open with my voice and helps me become a better singer overall 🤩
ALL STARSSSS I LOVE RIFTE!!!! AMAZING TEACHER MY BELTING HAS IMPROVED GOT MORE CONTROL AND READY TO HAVE THE NEXT LESSON!!
My experience was truly amazing, even though I stumbled quite a bit along the way. Rifte consistently encouraged me to correct my mistakes, and he always did so in a supportive manner that made me feel at ease. Instead of criticizing me for my errors, he focused on helping me learn and grow from them, which made a significant difference in my confidence and skills. His expertise and patience clearly set him apart as one of the best vocal coaches I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with.
Rifte is an excellent teacher, working with Rifte has been rewarding, quickly identifies differences/or inadequacy's in vocal and vocal patters and has a very advanced understanding of vocal placement and will likely use a holistic approach to improving every aspect of your singing and vocal performance and working with Rifte has been a very rewarding experience.
It wasn't until I started taking lessons with Rifte that I began to understand how much I have to work on when it comes to singing! Within the first month of his coaching (and my practicing), I've been able to open up my voice and become more confident using chest voice. I'm also working on singing with emotion and different voice qualities. Rifte will never pass up an opportunity to help you improve - he can skillfully pinpoint specific problem areas and will work with you tirelessly until you've got it down!
Rifte is way overqualified and should be teaching up there with celebrities! He's very detailed with his notes and fast to think on the spot to find curated vocal exercises that bring out the best in your voice. I was able to understand a lot more about what I was doing while singing, and techniques that blew my mind. We have worked on many songs that I mastered thanks to his coaching. Watching the before & after of myself singing is amazing to see. Highly recommend a coaching journey with Rifte!
