At the end of ESB, when Vader is convinced that he's just got Luke into carbonite and Luke force jumps out, he is impressed and says "Obi-Wan has taught you well" - indicating that training is more than just basics and don't turn to the dark side, but you have to be taught how to manipulate the Force - it's not just something that comes automatically.
