Perhaps Goku was simply unable to teach others that technique? Knowing how to do something and knowing how to teach others are two different things.

<p>In the Dragonball Z anime series, as far as I remember, only Goku and Cooler (in a movie) could perform the instant transmission technique. Goku learned it from an alien race when he escaped from Namek after his epic battle with Frieza.</p>

<p>It was a pretty awesome technique but no one else learned it or even attempted to learn it. Do we have any references in the manga or in the anime that suggest why no one else wanted / bothered to learn it?</p>

I think Cell also learned it after self-destructing. No other characters that I can remember learned it though.

# Instant Transmission

**Goku** learned [*instant transmission*](http://dragonball.wikia.com/wiki/Instant_Transmission) on the remote planet [Yardrat](http://dragonball.wikia.com/wiki/Yardrat). Many others were capable of performing this technique, none of which were relevant to the show and thus not shown.

The only one, other than Goku, that was shown using the technique was **Cell**. Since Cell was partly made out of Goku's cells, he could sense how it needed to be performed by seeing Goku do so.

For the others, nobody just bothered to go to all the way to Yardrat to learn the technique. Why they didn't ask Goku is beyond me though. I guess it wasn't needed for the story and Akira didn't want anyone else to look as bad-ass as Goku.

Other forms of instant transmission were seen though.
