Yes, I use mine for Zumba and it works great to calculate calories burned and fat.

As long as your dancing is over 10 minutes, then it counts as a workout. You need to go to the workout menu and pick out the activity that matches your workout. I usually use the high impact aerobics and it works for me. There are plenty of choices for activities so one of them should fit your needs. Hope this helps!

Unfortunately no. One of my favorite things to do as well. It really only tracks exercise that involves standard arm swing (walking/running). Though you can put it into active mode and manually record but no way to distinguish regular yoga from hot yoga

I don't know. I bought a (independently written) book which discusses the method of exercise. I really like the machine and feel it helps me.

Hello,I hope you will still enjoy the energy of the Zumba fitness system. The songs are not the regular songs you listen to on the radio. Some of the songs have lyrics and some don't. I guess, I never really thought about it. I just think that you can incorporate the steps you learn to your favorite songs. The music used is good. The songs are so energetic, they make you want to move, dance and that is the idea. I hope I have answered your question and I hope this helps.ThanksMB

Only if you have a short stride to maintain your balance. I'd suggest audio books so you can use your arms to alter your workout positions so you can maximize your workout. Caution, it's fun, easy, & addicitive!

As with any bicycle type devise, this does work the upper thighs, and the lower calves. It is useful in many positions and great for recovery after surgery. You can adjust the tension to help with the thigh area. It basically depends on exactly what you are aiming to work on. It is not a best for intense exercise, but more for maintaining and healing. You can practically lay down an exercise or sit right up and do it. Used regularly it will keep your legs well exercised, and help in the healing process of surgeries such as knee replacement. It is also well made so it can stand up to time and use. hope this helps. God bless

I don't see any harm, it's totally worth a shot. It's not very big either so stores nicely in a corner or closet. It has a smooth variable resistance setting so you can go slow for strength or easy and fast for cardio. You will need to by the handles for arm style separately but they are worth it & make sure to place it on a steady table at proper height to get most out of it. I actually sit on a pillow because my table is tall for me. I have never used the foot pedals, not sure how good of a work out you will get from that?? The Arm Bike style is the way to go in my opinion. Hope this helps!

Yes, for a pure cardio workout it will work just fine. There are enough resistance settings to keep it interesting and challenging enough to actually give you a workout. It's a great bike for the price.

Since yoga doesn't involve much stepping generally, I don't think yoga would advance you toward your daily goal (set by the device) as much as you might like. The same goes for swimming, biking, and any other exercise where your feet don't step down on a hard surface. However, my device counts vigorous rocking from one hip bone to another while seated as steps toward my goal. Roll a little of this into your yoga if you think it's appropriate. It is a good workout for the obliques, but also is pretty hard on a chair, so do it on a floor, picnic bench, bath tub, etc. No joke. This really works, and is a vigorous workout in its own right, and your Garmin will count it.

If you were exercising, then probably yes. If you were just out for a walk or hanging out, then no.

Yes, it does work well when i was excercise. I bought this 5.99 . I think this is a good deal and sound.

We did not use this for arms; just for legs and circulation. However, I believe I recall reading that you can place this 'bike' on a dining or kitchen table and use the pedals exercise your arms. Hope this helps.

Yes, with regards to a bicycle type workout, tread mill, walking, jogging, even aerobics....

The "beats" are easy to to follow, so I would say yes. It's a great way to start your workout journey.

yes! I bought mine for exercises. i do a sitting exercise that uses my arms for movement, but you could do what you describe as well.

I'm sure that it could be used during practice and performances, but I'm not sure how comfortable that will be. I can see the un-sleeved side moving up with exertion. You could sure try it, though, and any support would be better than none.
