    I had no clue what to put it under before I got my HRM too... I'd say that's the closest thing, go for it!

    Dancing will work for an estimate, however, I found that the estimates were not very accurate once I began wearing a heart rate monitor. I strongly recommend one!

    I log it under aerobic dancing. Sure!

    That's probably the closest thing on the list, but I used my heart rate monitor during a Zumba class, and I burned way more calories than what came up with aerobic dancing. I burned about 550 calories in a 60 minute class, but aerobic dancing came up as 318.

    I put in under high impact aerobics! It was actually coming surprisingly close (just got my HRM)!
