In 2015 Maquiol joined the famous dance company Fusión Latina and was one of the main dancers for three years until he decided to start his own school Pasión Latina teaching bachata, merengue and salsa. In 2018 Maquiol competed and won first place in the most popular bachata street contest in the eastern part of the country.
