Iza is 100 percent correct. All the lady is doing is teaching the pups is to blow off commands with the sit,sit, sit command. The pups are calm but I bet that has more to do with getting them out and walking them then repeating the sit command and then offering a very poor timed reward. The great thing is that she is working with her pups and getting them out for walks. Socialization should start the day they are born.

Now I know it would be difficult to "correct" a bunch of puppies at one time (making them sit) but I notice the poor old dog never even sat until it was repeated 20 times.
