Yes folks, after months of rain we suddenly had a dry and windless day. It was quite a shock as I didn’t recognise the sun at first too. But that gold stain in the sky made it possible to train on the streets of Leiden with my friend Julia. We practiced some jumps and flips. […]

On June 1st the Open Dutch Unicycle Championships are held. And the organisation was cool enough to organize a formal training day to train 10M slow, slalom, long jump and the start of sprint. It was a great day that started with a cool warming up organised by Lindsey and Elize. And some relaxed unicycling.

Circ’Olé was sheer fun. It’s a lovestory with good music and some nice dans, aerial and acrobatics. Packed in a small theater everything happens right In front of you. There is a lot of audience participation and some really good showmanship. It featured flying guitars and flamingo pingpong. Awesome! Olé! More Circusstad 2024:
