Soulful Movement Coaching for the Panoramic Years.*
“The Panoramic Years”:
A particular age range or a perspective from which you view your life as though from a vista, where you can see the past, present and future clearly spread out around you in all directions.
Sometimes it creeps up slow and imperceptible; sometimes it comes down like a ton of bricks…
… but there’s a point in your life when you notice your perspective has shifted.
Maybe it’s when the kids moved out, or one or both parents died, or you hit a certain arbitrary birthday.
All you know is that one day, you’ve noticed you can see the end from the beginning.
Your life feels different. Your cares and concerns have both sharpened and mellowed, and most certainly re-prioritized.
The horizon once hidden beyond dreams of potential and possibility is now in clear view, and the remaining container of your life is taking on distinct shape.
Here is where you might feel caught between grasping for ‘youth’ and stepping authoritatively into maturity;
Between gracefully accepting naturally-occurring changes, and succumbing pre-maturely to new limitations;
Between sloughing off the seeds of potential that did not take root, and leveraging the gifts and wisdom you have accumulated over your life thus far.
This can generate anxiety and discouragement, or … a whole new potential for meaning.
Because we are all heavily influenced by deeply-embedded cultural messaging about what ‘aging’ has in store (for better or worse) THIS is most definitely a time to decide for yourself what ‘aging’ means, what beauty and potential are, and to declare what the WHY of your soul, your life, your body’s purpose really is.
The Panoramic Years are a time where self care as soul care becomes an imperative.
It’s a time for recalibration and intentionality, with an eye toward how you want to feel and what you want to embody now and in the years to come.
Welcome to Movement-Wise
Soulful Movement Coaching that aligns your movement needs with your soul’s purpose.
~ Why work with me? ~
I’m Gina Loree Bryan…
58-year-old bodyworker, movement teacher, fellow human.
I’ve been certified as shiatsu practitioner since 2005, a personal trainer in restorative exercise since 2017, and an embodied meditation teacher since 2022.
In almost two decades of practice, I’ve observed that not only are modern human bodies starving for movement, but for movement that is applicable to our unique lives, and makes sense for whatever stage of life we’re in.
As I entered my own ‘panoramic years’, it became abundantly clear that what we believe about ourselves, our worth and our capabilities HAS to be grounded in our own experience - not what the culture leads us to believe.
Our needs and purposes DO change as we age, which doesn’t mean our usefulness or mobility has to diminish, but support for our mobility has to be grounded in something deeper than appearance.
And the movement we do has to be relevant!

Movement in a Box
Let me create a movement plan (or two) for you!
We’ll chat about what you’re looking for, what you’re able to do and when, and I’ll create customized practices for you. Then, we’ll meet via Zoom (or in person if you’re local), and go through the moves.
Recorded video is also available for an extra charge.
