    I use high impact aerobics, but I would recommend using a heart rate monitor. It is more accurate and I can tell you from experience: my calories burned in Zumba can vary a lot. But have fun! It is a blast!!!!!

    When i do zumba i just log it under fast ballroom dancing in the cadio section.

    Thank you all so much for replying...my first class is Friday aat 5pm...i know late..but its being offered for free so no complaints. I have taken Zumba at home before with little results. Im hoping that ill be able to keep up with it with a class. I have NO rhythm.

    I do have a question about HRM....can i use those as a daily tool such as just walking around the house...or do i only need to use that when im actually exercising?

    HRM's are only good for exercising. If you wanted a total body burn for the whole day, you would want more like a Bodybugg or a BodyMediaFit.
