You can log it a few different ways. Aerobic dance, is one way. I chose to create my own category, and I enter the calories manually, based on what I burned according to my heart rate monitor.
There are a few websites that can tell you approx how much you burn, but I find they often overestimate, giving me at least 100 more calories, or more, than I actually burn - now that I have an HRM to check it.
Good luck, enjoy it!0 -

This is a zumba calories burned calculator.0 -
Also if I recall correctly, Zumba gold is more for beginners/old people who can't move as fast.0

I've used this site to calculate: http://caloriesburnedhq.com/zumba-calories-burned/0
