I went to classical piano lessons when I was a child, but then grew out of them and started to teach myself more jazzy, contemporary stuff. I then taught myself to play guitar.

There is nothing wrong with being self-taught. So many amazing musicians are self-taught. But I also think sometimes having that extra knowledge of music theory is a big help.
