Xuân was born on January 11, 1985, in the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic to athlete parents who went studying abroad for a master's degree in Russia. When she was 9 years old, her neighbor Xuân Thi, who was also the head coach of the Vietnam Wushu Team, learned about her talent and advised her to join the Vietnam Wushu Team.
Đàm made her international debut at the 1999 World Wushu Championships where she became the world champion in gunshu.[2] A year later, she won a silver and two bronze medals at the 2000 Asian Wushu Championships and thus won the bronze medal in women's changquan all-around. She was a double gold medalist in daoshu and gunshu and a silver medalist in gunshu at the 2001 World Wushu Championships.[3][4] The following year, she won a silver medal in daoshu at the 2003 Southeast Asian Games and a silver medal in gunshu at the 2003 World Wushu Championships.[5][6] A year later, she won medals of every color at the 2004 Asian Wushu Championships as well as in the 2005 Southeast Asian Games.[7][8][9] Her last competition was at the 2005 World Wushu Championships where she became the world champion in gunshu and a silver medalist in daoshu.[10][11]
Xuân got married with one of her childhood friend. Her husband is also a Wushu athlete - both of them have studied for a master's degree at Shanghai Sports University.[13]
