events

At the heart of jae[sic] productions is, of course, the events Jaesic produces. Jaesic gained their expertise for production through their experience co-organizing multiple national dance weekender events over the past several years, and now they've turned inward toward Rochester and all its beauty. Rochester, NY is bursting at the seems with endless talent, creativity, and eagerness to make incredible things happen. Currently, Jaesic specializes in showcasing Rochester's diversity through thrillingly themed variety shows that are always followed with throwdowns on the dancefloor.

music

From one off projects, to organizing community jazz jams, to their bands Jae[sic] and the Baesics or the Jaesic Wade Trio, Jaesic lives in a world surrounded by music - and they wouldn't have it any other way. With a music teacher for a mother, music has been a part of their world since before they took their first breath. Now each year passes, and Jaesic learns more and more of who they are through the music they explore - be it through singing, playing a lick on any of the 7 instruments they play, or writing a song.

dance

Jaesic has been dancing since the moment they could walk. Though disability kept them from their original dream of being a ballerina or Broadway dancer, they never gave up hope of keeping movement in their life. Finally in college, a friend introduced them to Lindy Hop, and a new dream was born.

Now with over a decade of partner dancing under their belt, Jaesic enjoys touring the country to teach, DJ, organize, and work Access and Safety through their organization with Fen Lastra called Changeling Spaces for national partner dance weekender events. Most of these events are within the Fusion dancing world, but Jaesic does some work in the Blues, Swing, and Latin worlds too, and travels just to dance so many other styles. Right now their focus is in learning Brazilian Zouk, Bachata, and Urban Kiz better, while never losing sight and experience of their Lindy Hop, Blues, and Fusion.

While partner dancing is a huge part of Jaesic's life, they're also grateful for the moments of solo movement they've been able to explore over the years, and are excited to dive into the burlesque arts very soon!

art

Painting, photography, cinematography, other physical media - nothing is off limits to Jaesic. Put a utensil or camera in their hands, and see what magic happens. After reading about, and perhaps witnessing online or in person, their lifetime love affair with the arts, learning this fact is probably no surprise to you.

who. what. where. when. why.
