I see tons of videos with men teaching techniques but very few with women. This is a very good video that I can show my friends that are not men that they too could unicycle because other women do.

Super good teaching though what a lady. She's got that acts down makes it look easy it's so freaking hard at first

Please invest in some good microphones, the background noise is unbearable.

Love the tips! Super helpful and you cover a lot. It's almost like you're the best in the world at what you do 😉

Thank you for making this video!!!!

It was a pleasure meeting Connie at NAUCC 2017 :)

Wish they would have used a wireless lav microphone on her. Such good teaching yet noisy background noise. Get Miss Connie a wireless mic for future videos. 😃

Awesome and informative video to perfect my skills.l I'll be posting new videos soon on my new KH20!

Thanks, this was helpful.

Lots of good tips here for beginner unicyclists. Unfortunately the audio isn't very good with all the background gym noise :(

Damn she’s my hero

Shame about the audio, but still a very informative video. Amazing skills at the end.

Great tips. Super hard to me for me with the background noise.

There’s no way that guy has never been on a unicycle. Way too competent for a rookie.

Good rider

The audio for this video is so bad, the producers should have been too ashamed to publish it. Great material - it should now be dubbed, given that it's all one speaker.

It looks like holding onto the seat in front would be easier to start. Just tiring more. But then I ride electric unicycles and its all standing. The seat looks to throw me off. Lol

Every video I've seen besides this one said absolutely do not lock your knee. There should be just a slight bend. Locking your knees is very very bad for your joints..

Does this skill transfer over to other balance skills? Does it help with propreception, juggling, etc?

Possibly but I don't think there's evidence for it. I don't think unicycling contributes to tight rope walking. So as far as proprioception goes, I'd have to say I do not think so. The key to balance though, and proprioception for that matter it so keep looking at a single point, ie the end of the tightrope, where you want to go on a unicycle, or the top of an object that you're balancing on your hand. If the eyes remain locked, you have reference point for the rest of your body. Good luck.

@@JugglingGuild Thank you for the response! I just got hooked on juggling. I enjoy balance exercises as I do judo footsweeps which require good balance. Does balancing a club on the head improve juggling?

@@kravenofspider The theory goes (Nick Gatto's) that balancing a club on the chin, nose, or forehead helps one determine the mid-point (crossing point for higher numbers). Again, there's no science to back this up, but Anthony was pretty darn good.

@@JugglingGuild I just saw that guy. He is other worldly. I will try it. One last question, what is considered a solid 3 ball cascade in juggling? How many catches before moving on to tricks etc?

@JugglingGuild

@@kravenofspider 100 catches is solid. But start trying tricks after you can solidly do 30 catches. Here's why: you have to start concentrating on the timing of whatever move you are going to do. And while you're doing that, your body keeps doing the juggling for you leading to 'Unconscious competence' with the cascade. ie you can do the skill without thinking about it.

Lock your knees? Serious? I've been doing it wrong. I will try. thanks.

Did you get any better at riding a unicycle?

No, I make the videos so young folks, gym teachers, and recreation directors have a quality resource to go to when I can't be there to teach.
