'self taught' - 09-03-2009, 12:05 PM

I hear some people claim experience in this or that art based on "self teaching." That sounds like a load of crap (at best) to me. What do y'all think?

very few have the natural talent to actually be able to 'successfully' be self taught
so yea, everyone who claims such things is full of bollocks >.>

"self taught" = bullshit.

I gave up on calling these people out years ago, though. Let them delude themselves. There are plenty of youtube videos that show us what "self taught" amounts to, amirite?

You're trolling, me.

This thread is directed at me for saying I self teach Tae Kwon Do and Ninjutsu.

Teaching yourself how to fight from scratch is impossible. Supplementing your training with DVDs is intelligent.

The DVD that I learn Tae Kwon Do kicks from Is Revolution of Kicking:



But I only learn the kicks from the DVD. I stick to my Muay Thai knowledge to learn how to apply them. I practice application in class, mostly in sparring.

As you can see from the You Tube clip of the DVD, the detail of explanation for this kick is very high. If you stick to their instructions, and also have exstensive knowledge of martial arts already, it can be a useful training aid.


The eternal Saint is calling, through the ages she has told. The ages have not listened; the will of faith has grown old…

For forever she will wander, for forever she withholds; the Demon King is on his way, you’d best not be learned untold…


Check out my You Tube channel (it's new and there's not much there yet, but check back every week and you should find a new vid of hardcore fighting):

Dang man, that is COMPREHENSIVE if nothing else.
To cover my ass, I agree that the thread was, in spirit, inspired by things you might have said, however I think that if you're supplementing your legit training with something that's solid and well put-together like those DVDs, you're gold. My college roommate got his 3rd or 4th degree in Ninjutsu, so I'm wondering how you can self-train in that, after he went over the basics with me. I love the concepts and I applied some of the techniques to my regular-use repetoire, but I didn't follow through with it more than that. Big ups to those who do; it's a pretty awesome martial art, especially the 5th degree test.
