Alba Iaia 🇮🇹
Precision & Discipline
Alba Scapicchio may be the youngest member of the Scapicchio Academy, but her age is never a measure of her authority. Calm, precise, and remarkably knowledgeable, Alba has earned her place through skill, discipline, and depth of understanding.
She is quiet by nature , observant, focused, and exact.
Every explanation is clear. Every demonstration purposeful. Alba has a rare ability to break complex techniques down to their essence, making her a highly respected and trusted tutor, particularly within Level 1, where foundations matter most.
In the classroom, she excels at answering the essential questions: how, what, where, and when.
Her insight into both sharpening and shaving goes beyond surface technique. She understands not only how things are done, but why and that depth translates directly to her teaching. Students leave her sessions with clarity, structure, and confidence.
Despite her young age, Alba has already stood on international stages, demonstrating the craft under pressure, lights, and scrutiny. Each time, she brings the same composure and professionalism she shows in the Academy. The calm never leaves her. The focus never breaks.
Alba represents the future of the Scapicchio tradition, not as a departure from heritage, but as its natural continuation. She proves that mastery is not about volume or presence, but about precision, understanding, and quiet confidence.
A valued colleague.
A respected educator.
And a powerful reminder that true authority is earned through knowledge and consistency, not age.
