    The best way to log it is with an HRM but otherwise you can log it under Aerobics, high impact or Dancing, aerobic, ballet or modern, twist! :o)

    Of course you should add it!... I add every lillte bit of exercise I do. If I clean the house for 30 minutes, I add it.

    I have a HRM, which is awesome..... When I do zumba, calories burned all depends on the teacher & songs during the hour. I burn anywhere from 425-600 per hour. Of course, everyone is different though.

    Take a look at http://www.zumbacalories.com enter your weight, workout duration & intensity and it will calculate how many calories you have burned based on average metabolic rates
