Does anyone know how many calories you burn doing zumba for an hour?

When looking at other posts on Zumba someone had posted this site http://www.zumbacalories.com/.
Zumba is added in the exercise database, just put in the amount of minutes you did Zumba for and it automatically calculates the calories.

Yep...I used Zumbacalories.com also. My Zumba instructor recommends it!

As a 182 lb female, I normally burn between 480 to 530 calories for a 55 minute DVD session or 60 minute live session.

Hi,

Check out zumbacalories.com this tells you how many calories burnt depending on which
level you do. You can choose between Low - medium - high.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the website. I had been using aerobic dancing for the Zumba and it doesn't come close. I was burning many more calories than I thought.

I'm about 150 (maybe a little less now) and I wear a heart rate monitor. I did Zumba yesterday for the first time yesterday for 76 minutes at home. Burned 586 calories and a max heart rate of 202!!

I have the Wii, I've only ever done 45 minutes at the wii's medium intensity level and I burn 480 calories. I can't imagine a workout for beginners that burns more calories. I love it!!
