May 26, 2009 - PRLog -- Chad Azadan spent the last four years in Las Vegas dancing in the Celine Dion production.  Other credits include dancing in a Franco Dragon production also in Las Vegas.  Though originally from Los Angeles, Chad seamlessly made the transition from California to Nevada by stepping into productions.

In his dancer interview with JigTV.com, Chad talked about what it was like to work on a Vegas production which has lasted five whole years.  He was the first replacement on Celine Dion's show and ran with it, working there for four of the five years of the shows production.  There was a 2 week process where he would spend three hours a day learning the show then watching the show at night.  Once a part of the show, they would do a dance class for an hour and a half, then an hour re-stage of the show with whose sick and injured, after an hour dinner break they would do a ballet warm up then preform the show.

Though there were grueling demands already from the amount of dancing they do in a week, the worst part of the show was the 7% incline that they preformed on.  Doing all the contemporary dance moves is hard enough on an even surface, needless to say with the 7% rake a lot of dancers were injured.  Luckily for Chad Azaran, they were graced with massage therapists and trainers who could tape him back together.

Chad tells the online dance community that they don't have to sell themselves so much in Vegas as they do in Los Angeles.  In Vegas they look for who you are, and the type of dancer you are to find out if you are right for the project or not.  That doesn't mean he prefers Vegas to LA.  When he was young it was fun to stay hip and with what was in but as he matured he really prefers to stick to he is and not have to change as much.

Chad advises that you don't move to Vegas without work already.  He says there is more work for women in Vegas then men, especially for women who are willing to be bikini models at the convention scene.  Chelsea advises you to watch Chad's online dance class and learn from it to get a better understanding of contemporary dance.
