    I added it as my own exercise and I have a calorie counting watch, so I'm able to add it correctly. Most people that I know do it the same way.

    at the moment you can add it under modern dance, twist. that should be close to it. But if you wanna do it on the regular, I suggest you invest in a HRM. This way you will get a much more accurate calorie counting, since MFP only gives you an estimateand how much you really burn depends on age, weight, and how much you go into it.

    There's also a website www.zumbacalories.com that someone set up w/ a calculator to see approx what you burn. Several ppl have reported it is very close to their HRM

    I'm with the blueeyedtraveler- add it as your own exercise and get yourself a calorie counting watch so you know exactly how much you burned. I've seen them at Target for around $50 or on Amazon for the same price. Enjoy Zumba- I LOVE it! You'll see the inches melt off!
