Question gym classes

i'm a member at ballys, and was wondering if taking group classes ( such as yoga, pilates or a total body class *focuses on cardio weight loss, resistance trains and flexibility*) could substitute for a full body workout session or a HIIT session?

The total body class would work for a full-body WO session, but they are too long to be a HIIT session.

You can get to 80-90% of your MHR if your instructor is good.
