The daughter of musicologists Jean and Brigitte Massin, Béatrice Massin began her career with contemporary dance. In particular, she was a performer of shows by American Susan Buirge. She met Francine Lancelot in 1983 and joined the Ris and Danceries[1][2] troupe of which she was successively interpreter, assistant, collaborator and choreographer. Then began a long process of appropriation of the baroque language.

In 1993, she founded the company Fêtes galantes.[3] Since then, Béatrice Massin has deepened this approach in her creations. (Songes, Que ma joie demeure,[4]). She received commissions (Le roi danse, film by Gérard Corbiau) and developed an educational centre within the Atelier baroque.
