NEW: A 9-year-old girl from Mississauga set three Guinness World Records in hula hooping.
The hard work paid off a few weeks ago when the Grade 4 student from Mississauga, Ont., set three Guinness World Records for hula hooping, although she kept the achievement a secret from her classmates at first.Mamathi set the world records in January in the United Kingdom, after being invited to London by the corporation that tracks human achievements and the extremes of the natural world. She said she was nervous leading up to her performance but felt confident in the moment.
"Everyone is so happy for her at such a young age, even her grandparents," she said. "She's really fast and she can control it really well." Her mother, who used to hula hoop herself, said Mamathi began twirling a 30-inch polypropylene plastic hoop around her waist, neck, arms and legs when she was two years old."It's a really nice sport to do because it doesn't include running or kicking or anything," she said.
"They congratulated me and seeing how happy they were for me, it encouraged me more to do more records like this," she said.
