    I use a Polar Heart Rate Monitor for my classes and I burn approximately 650 - 750 calories an hour on average - obviously it will vary from person to person! I still use the zumba calorie website estimate of 608 per hour for wiggle room.

    Definitely use a HRM. I did an hour Zumba class last night but because I'm new and learning, I used aerobic-low impact in the MFP database.
