    Varies on the person, impact, class, instructor.
    Some will say between 400-700, but I've seen ppl post that their HRM shows right over 1000.

    My HRM says 500 for me after a Zumba class. Maybe I am doing something wrong, but after Zumba I always feel like "Well that was fun. Let's go downstairs and have a REAL workout now!"

    LOVE Zumba!! My HRM says 959 burned for an hour of Zumba. But I'm a big gal ;)

    I LOVE Zumba and burn around 650 calories in a 45 minute class. Just last month our local YMCA held a 3 hour Zumba party and I burned crazy calories...1,824!! I would not have believed it if I had not been wearing my HRM.
