Early life

Mariano was born in 1993, in Campinas, to a Japanese Brazilian family. He practiced judo in a club as a child, following his father steps; Mariano changed his mind after watching the gymnastics class.[8]

After his parents' divorce, Mariano moved with his mother to São Paulo, where he entered in a gymnastics team in another club. When he was 11, Mariano joined Esporte Clube Pinheiros. Mariano won the Brazilian Child Gymnastics Championship when he was 14.[8]

Accusations of racism

In 2015, Mariano and fellow gymnasts Felipe Arakawa and Henrique Flores were suspended from the Brazilian national team for a month, after publishing a Snapchat video in which they made racist jokes addressed at another teammate, Afro-Brazilian gymnast Ângelo Assunção.[9]

Mariano published another video apologizing for the incident. After his teammate had won the bronze medal at 2016 Olympics, Assunção said: "I don't keep a grief at him. We are close friends. I am very proud of Nory. I just hope he behaves like a medal winner outside the arena too."
