After his parents' divorce, Mariano moved with his mother to São Paulo, where he entered in a gymastics 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 of the Brazilian national team for a month, after publishing an Snapchat video in which they made racist jokes adressed at another teammate, Afro-Brazilian gymnast Angelo 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."
