I've been doing yoga for a year and a half at this point, for about 40 minutes a day. About two months ago, I started going to exercise classes, five days a week. They're normally about 45 minutes, one is 60 minutes. At times I go to yoga there too, for 60 or 75 minutes. Is it too much to do yoga and one of the exercise classes in the same day?

    LOL no.

    too much means you aren't seeing the results you want because you're body can't recover fast enough.

    Just listen to your body.

    A better way of putting it is: You can't over-train, but you can under-eat, and you can under-rest.

    Sleep and nutrition will help you train more. If you're exhausted, you're likely over-training.
