UniStars performs, free trial class at Vint Hill

Warrenton unicycle group performs and welcomes newcomers to try a beginner class

If you’ve every wanted to learn to ride a unicycle, here’s your chance.  On Friday, March 3, 6:30 to 8 pm, local unicyclist team, the UniStars, in conjunction with Fauquier County Parks and Recreation, will host a unicycle show and trial class at Vint Hill Gym in Warrenton, Virginia. After the performance, the group welcomes anyone over age 8 to try to ride a unicycle with the assistance of the UniStar coaches.

My son has taken the classes, and he went from not knowing how to ride a unicycle to free-mounting and doing tricks in three sessions!  He loves riding so much, we used a photo of him riding for our holiday card this year.

The classes are a half hour once a week.  The kids in the group range from 8 to older teens. The two women instructors are terrific, and they have unicycles you can rent for $10 for a the entire session . The classes are only $37 for a 5- to 7-class session, through Fauquier County Parks and Rec. For more info, email theunistars@gmail.com.
