AttributeError in creating SkyCoord object

[SuCh50-Coder]

Description

I am following the tutorial https://learn.astropy.org/tutorials/3-Coordinates-Velocities.html.

But unable to create the object, it's showing an error

AttributeError: 'numpy.float64' object has no attribute 'to_value'

why is this error occuring?
I am on windows 11.

Expected behavior

It is expected to create the SkyCoord object

How to Reproduce

import warnings
warnings.filterwarnings("ignore", module="astropy.io.votable.*")
warnings.filterwarnings("ignore", module="pyvo.utils.xml.*")
warnings.filterwarnings('ignore', '.*RADECSYS=*', append=True)


import numpy as np

from astropy import units as u
from astropy.coordinates import SkyCoord, Distance, Galactic
import astropy.coordinates as coord
from astropy.io import fits
from astropy.table import QTable
from astropy.time import Time


from astroquery.gaia import Gaia

gaia_tbl = Gaia.query_object(SkyCoord.from_name('HD 219829'), 
                             radius=1*u.arcmin)

hd219829_row = gaia_tbl[gaia_tbl['phot_g_mean_mag'].argmin()]

hd219829_coord = SkyCoord(
    ra=hd219829_row['ra'], 
    dec=hd219829_row['dec'],
    distance=Distance(parallax=hd219829_row['parallax']),
    pm_ra_cosdec=hd219829_row['pmra'],
    pm_dec=hd219829_row['pmdec'],
    obstime=Time(hd219829_row['ref_epoch'], format='jyear'))

Hello. astropy 5.1 is very old and the 5.x series is no longer supported. I am transferring this issue to the tutorials repo, as I feel like this is a matter of the tutorial contents need updating. Thank you for your patience.
