Do i count it as "aerobic dance" category? It's my first class - so if it's not high impact the whole time (as my stamina is awful!) how do I count the calories burned? Thanks!!! Yay Exercise!!!

    check out www.zumacalories.com and enter your info. It'll give you an estimate.

    I log it as aerobic high impact, and it was very close with what my bodybugg reads.

    The most accurate way to see what you've burned would be with a heart rate monitor; it all depends on your exertion level :)
