Anyone do Barre classes?

Sophsmother

I just started doing barre DVDs and cannot find "barre" listed in strength training exercises on MFP. I have no clue how many calories are burned during a class and can't figure out how to add it to the database as a strength training exercise. Does anyone know how to add it to the database?

I usually log it as low impact aerobics because the amount of calories in the FP database for low impact aerobics is about the same as what my gym claims which is supposedly based on science.

(My gym provides calorie burns for all their classes. I think they had someone wear HRMs while they did the classes and then recorded that data.)

I sometimes take barre interval classes which are more cardio intensive, but at a different place which doesn't post the calories. I log those as aerobics-- general, i believe.
