FAQ - Has my booking been successful?

If when you click "Confirm Booking" you get a booking reference in the table below, and you see a button saying Finished, your booking has been successful - even if you don't immediately get an email. In this case, please do not make repeated bookings.

FAQ - Can I book as a dual role dancer?

This year, we are introducing the option to book as a dual role dancer. If you intend to dance roughly 50/50 as a leader and a follower, you should choose this option. If you only occasionally switch to "the other" role, please choose your main role instead.

Total: £0.00

Partner Options

Please note that priority will be given to those booking as couples. You are welcome to book individually, but we cannot guarantee a place as we will be trying to keep the leader/follower balance reasonably close.

Please select one of the options below concerning whether or not you are attending with a partner. If you and your partner are booking identically, you will not need to fill out a separate form, just their name and email. Their booking will then be automatically generated to match yours.

I do not wish to book with a partner. I understand that CITF are trying to keep numbers of leaders and followers balanced in workshops and that I will need to wait until they confirm my place in any workshops I book. I am coming with a partner and we wish to book exactly the same package, workshops and dancing. I coming with a partner who has not booked yet. I have entered their name below and will give them my booking reference once I have finished booking. I am coming with a partner who has already booked. I have entered their name and booking reference below.

Workshops

The price of workshops depends upon the number of workshops booked. The more workshops you book, the lower the price as shown below. Please note that if you are booking an identical package for a partner, the number of workshops is counted separately for each partner.

It is notoriously difficult to ensure that everyone in a given workshop is of an appropriate level. Please try and book for workshops which are of an appropriate level for you. Our guide may help you. Please note that, for example, an advanced workshop including volcadas would assume that you are already able to do a volcada. We cannot guarantee that the teachers will be teaching the basic skills in the more advanced classes. Please be considerate of other people booking a workshop and try not to book a workshop which is beyond your current ability.

Please note that you book higher level classes at your own risk. We will be unable to return your money if the class was pitched at the advertised level, but was too challenging for you.

Please note that you if you book workshops without a partner, while we will try and match you with another single booker, we can make no guarantees that this is possible nor about their level. Your safest option is to ask someone to partner you for the workshops!
