It depends on the type of dance, the intensity and your weight. Hip-Hop can burn about 300-800 per hour and tap dancing can burn about 200-800 per hour. I think Belly dancing burns around the same as those and so is Ballet. I would suggest tap dancing, it burns lots of calories even if you are not good at it. But ballet is best for strengthening muscles and stretching them out (flexibility).

For one hour of belly dancing routine or practice moves you can burn up to 200-500 calories.. that's a bag of minstrels.. pretty good hey and its fun.
There are many types of dance and the calories burned in any type of exercise, including dance, depend on how rigorous the work out its, and how long a person works out for.
