It would depend on the type of class, what you're going over and how intensive the class is that day. I am not sure how many calories per hour/15 minutes/30 minutes you can burn. I do know one thing...since I began belly dancing I have lost a lot of weight. Much of that is attributed to dancing.
I remember when I worked at a gym, the personal trainer told me that there are goals when working out to lose weight and tone. The goals are; heart rate up, work your entire body and, endurance or repitition . Belly dancing covers all three of those goals. Plus, you enjoy yourself while doing it!
