Ciarán spoke with Nik von Frankenberg about the political parties on the left of the Swiss political system: the CVP, SP and the Green Party. With Guy Morin, Basel has one of the few green mayors in Switzerland.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Jen talked to Rob Stuart about Basel's current cinema scene. Rob recommended Baz Luhrmann's The Great Gatsby and Sally Potter's Ginger &  Rosa. And attention, Star Trek fans: head to cinemas now for Star Trek Into Darkness, the latest in the sci-fi franchise, with the marvellous Benedict Cumberbatch as the über-villain.

 

 

 

 

 

 

DanzBollywood is the new entrant on the Basel dance scene, founded and run by Shalini Trefzer and dedicated to the FUN activity of teaching Bollywood dance. Performance classes designed in a dance-drama style transport the student to the land of make-believe where anything is possible and love is in the air.  Energetic Bhangra classes result in a solid workout after an hour of non-stop dancing to the unbeatable music of the Punjab region of India. Attractive group discounts make it easy for friends to share this healthy activity together. For adults & kids with normal health and an active zest for movement & expression! No prior dance experience necessary.

 

Bollywood dance teacher Shalini Trefzer told Ciarán about her new dance classes in Basel. Join the fun and learn to shimmy, shake, step & twirl in pure Bollywood style! To the beats of the fast-paced and delightful song Anarkali Disco Chali (Anarkali is off to the Disco), Shalini will show you just how to unleash that dancing star within! Despite Kiwi Jon's best intentions, however, Ciarán will not be joining any dance classes.
