Does it still qualify as 'learning on your own' if you use a guide or have someone help you or tell you how to do a move ?
Or does that mean you're being taught?

That's learning it on your own, I think?
That's how I did it, anyway.

I live by the words of my now-deceased grandfather: "Get the fuck out of my kitchen before I stuff that Nutella up your ass."

My dream is to be a quotable, legendary guy. Like MaDD or Desi Boogie or something.

I'd say its learning on your own if its by informational means.
When you're "being taught", I categorize it as being in person.

It seems kind of confusing to me.

You are TEACHING yourself via someone else's information.

Why does it even matter? If you want to say you taught yourself, go ahead, want to say you learned from the internet go ahead..

teaching yourself = no physical people involved other than yourself
taught by others = other physical ppl (contra videos) showing you how to do something

that's it
