Lifelong Learning Starts Friday at the Ross School

Ballet classes to self-help workshops, the Ross School hosts classes after school for adults.

Learning doesn't stop when you are done with school.

Lifelong Learning @ Ross classes in arts, media, personal development, wellness and more get underway soon, with staggering start dates beginning Friday.

The Ross School has campuses in East Hampton and Bridgehampton, but most of the classes are held in East Hampton.

No one is ever too old to take ballet. Open level classes allow both new and experience dancers to find their inner ballerina. Sheryl Hastalis teaches the class. Advanced ballet students may wear pointe shoes to class. The classes take place Fridays, starting Oct. 11, from 5 to 6:15 p.m. They cost $200.

Maida Berenblatt will lead a program called "Not My Child," designed to help parents catch early signs of use and abuse of substances and eating disorders in children in grades fifth through seventh. Berenblatt, an associate professor in psychology at Suffolk Community College and a family counselor at Seafield Center, has also co-authored two books on self-esteem and change and has appeared on "The Oprah Winfrey Show." The classes will be held Wednesdays from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. The cost is $35.

Other classes include "Anti-Aging, Wellness, Facial Rejuvenation, and Renewed Energy with Qi-Gong, Self-Acupressure, and Body-Mind Healing" workshop, belly dancing, defensive driving, and multimedia art. For a full list of classes, click here.
