In which activities/crafts do people excel without ongoing "coaching"?

In most sports (golf, baseball, etc), even top pros use coaches. My impression is that some top musicians (classical?) continue take lessons, but I’m not sure all do. And I don’t know about on-classical musicians. Singers take voice lessons. Do top actors take lessons? Do top writers attend workshops?

I would welcome a discussion of which activities top participants rely on ongoing “coaching/instruction”, and which don’t, and the reasons for the difference.
