Lonchampt trained rigorously within the Paris Opera's classical system before her professional debut with Zurich Ballet in 2006, subsequently dancing with the Finnish National Ballet and Het Nationale Ballet in roles ranging from the Lilac Fairy to Carabosse. Since 2011, she has been a principal dancer with Malandain Ballet Biarritz, where she has become the choreographer's preferred interpreter of his narrative works, originating and repeatedly performing leading roles in *Marie-Antoinette*, *La Belle et la Bête*, and *Roméo et Juliette*. Her career exemplifies the European classical dancer's evolution from technical virtuosity to dramatic maturity, anchored in the classical tradition while embracing contemporary storytelling.
Originated the title role of Marie-Antoinette in Thierry Malandain's *Marie-Antoinette* (2019)
