On a record-breaking roll
TV , fashion shows, festivals, videos or live events: you name it, Marawa has done it all.
She regularly performs for high-end names such as Kenzo and Refinery29, and fashion brands call her to “incorporate fun and hoops into their shows”. One thing is certain: watching Marawa’s performances bring the wow factor and personality into wherever she appears.
“I trained in a range of circus skills at NICA, but I knew my future was with hoops — super portable, super fun and anyone could get involved, any age, anywhere in the world with just a little bit of practice.”
– Marawa Ibrahim.
As well as her world-famous record for spinning 200 hula hoops at the same time, Marawa also knows what it takes to go the distance with her hoop skills.
Joining forces with sports brand Reebok, on 1 Feb 2017, she ran the fastest mile hula hooping – 8 min 0.4 sec – in Venice, California, USA.
Not satisfied that hula hooping was challenging enough by itself, over the years Marawa has added another element to her routines to (literally) take them to another level: roller skates with high heels!
