Burning Calories with Curves Zumba

Can someone tell me approximately how many calories are burned doing the Curves Zumba Circuit? Or perhaps someone can suggest a way to figure it out? It's not in the database that I can see and I want to remain as accurate as possible. Notice someone had posted a similar question over the summer with no solution.

Thanks!

    www.zumbacalories.com gives a pretty good estimate from what I hear. :)

    Buy a HRM, best investment ever.

    How does Curves Zumba circuit differ from regular Zumba?

    From my understanding, you Zumba dance for a bit then on cue you move to a machine for one minute, then dance, then move to the next machine and so on...so it's like the best of both worlds I suppose.

    Hmm, that sounds fun, but probably isn't going to fit anything already in the database. A HRM would be your best bet, but if you don't have one maybe try entering the minutes on the machines and the minutes of Zumba separately??
