According to Dr. Jarret Morrow, using the Mayo Clinic charts, a dancer on Dancing with the Stars would lose about 330 calories an hour doing ballroom dancing. Now that is a medium range, as the contestant’s weight and the intensity of the dance would all contribute to the exact amount burned. Remember, the contestants are also practicing for hours at a time every day, so when the body stops exercising, the burn rate would continue.
