Zumba

I tried a Zumba class today. Tried to add it to my exercise log. Does anyone have any idea of how many calories light Zumba burns in 30 minutes?
Thanks!

    I put my Jazzercise under the category: Slimnastics/jazzercise.
    I wear my HRM and usually burn 400-500 calories, classes vary from 50 to 55 minutes and I'm 62, so my calorie burn may be less than yours.
  • i used a calorie burn calculator on my phone, in 30 minutes i burn off 383 but im also 215...
