Hello, @Melveta and welcome to the community!

According to the photos that you have shown me, the graph shows that you have burned 4 calories a minute for an hour.

According to a calculator I found online, an 150 pound person doing water aerobics would burn 4.4 calories a minute for an hour of water aerobics.
This is an average, and depends on your weight.

Water aerobics burn less calories than Treadmills or Ellipticals, although I can’t say for yoga.
Your calorie burn seems accurate, and is not low, this is normal.
Have a nice day!
