Sebastian “Graduado Querubim” began his Capoeira journey right alongside his mother, Professora Ciranda.

He officially started training when he was four years old with Mestra Márcia “Cigarra” Triedler, but has been surrounded by Capoeira his whole life, and has been with ABADA Marin since its inception.

He is a Bay Area native, originally being born in the city, and moving to the Kentfield area when he was three. He is now going to college at College of Marin, where he is pursuing a career in business.

Sebastian was granted the rank of “Graduado Querubim” in the summer of 2025, and has since stepped up and has begun working at the front desk of the school, helping manage registration, memberships and class schedules, while still continuing to train as much as possible.
