Good morning!! I have recently discovered Zumba and I love it. Does anyone know how many calories 30 minutes of Zumba burns? Or, is there something equivalent in the exercise database? Thanks for your input and happy losing, MFP'ers.

    YOu can actually put zumba in as an exercise. Depending on your weight, with 30 minutes of Zumba is nothing less than 300/350ca. But try putting it in as an exercise.

    I got Zumba and I give you a lot of credit. I cannot get the moves down. I try it and feel like an uncoordinated dope!

    Cant help on the cals sorry. Just wanted to give you props!

    I use a HRM to track my calories burned. I attend 1 hr weekly Zumba classes. 6'3, Male, 330. I average between 700-900 calories burned.

    LOL Thanks! I'm pretty uncoordinated too, but I figure any movement is better than none at all. Keep trying! :happy:
