Yes. I recall it was 1600 or something. Taught by hatha yoga
non-experts at the center off of flash cards. Having been away from
the center for years, I went to an intro lecture on this course and
others. The teacher, a prominent researcher actually, couldn't even
remember the 8 limbs of yoga, kept confusing them, and having to refer
to his flash cards and TMO charts. It was a real "talking head"
performance (though this guy is competent in his field, AFAIK). I was
not impressed and decline the "offer" aka arm twisting to take the course.

On the other hand, in late 60s-mid 70s lots of stuff was without
charge. I never paid for an advaced technique then. Even from M.
