33m
In this video, Ilaria is joined by Danielle O’Connell to demonstrate her typical first session with a client. Instead of a full hour-long assessment, this workout uses carefully chosen exercises that reveal key insights about posture, strength, flexibility, and body awareness. You’ll see how subtle reactions during movement guide Ilaria’s approach, tailoring future sessions to each client’s unique needs. Whether the client prefers a structured assessment or a more discreet evaluation through movement, this method ensures the instructor gathers essential information without compromising comfort or confidence.
