What is Yoglates? It is a combination of calisthenics, yoga, and pilates. Don Yesso, a certified personal trainer, developed a series of movements derived from these different styles to give a complete cardiovascular, strength, stretching and balancing workout. These poses and movements..."Yoglates"... are designed to work the lymphatic as well as the internal organs of the body in combination with the skeletal and muscular structure of the entire physique.

Don studied Yoga in California at Shivanada Yoga College in Santa Monica and Bikram's Yoga College of India where he was fortunate enough to take numerous classes under Bikram Choudhury, founder of Bikram's Yoga. Don was also an assistant strength coach at LSU and represented LSU in the NCAA power lifting championships.
