ABOUT ME
My name is Ingvild Øverland.
I am based in Stavanger, Norway, and I have been a teacher for over 30 years. I have worked with children and education in China, Vietnam, England, the Czech Republic, and Norway. I hold a master’s degree in pedagogical science and have professional certifications including Social Presencing Theater and Awareness-Based Systems Change. Throughout my career I have been interested in how we learn, how we relate to one another, and how movement can open up new ways of understanding ourselves and the social world around us. My work today brings together my experience in education with movement-based practices, including Social Presencing Theater. Through workshops and lectures, I explore how movement can help students, teachers and groups engage with complex ideas and social dynamics in a different way.
