I have a theory that Meyer has some sociopathic issues or something, like she somehow can't connect to people. That might explain why she so cheerfully jokes about telling her husband that she'd leave him for Edward or Jacob.
I think Meyer was implying that the other newborns were continually screwing up and that Bree was So Much Better since they're a bunch of sheep or...something. I don't know. That is literally all we're told about the training and you're right, Bree wouldn't know any fighting. I don't even think she knew any in her human life.
Of course, this is just a repeat of Eclipse, when Jasper - the vampire who fought in the damned Civil War - basically gives training by telling everyone "run in from the sides, they won't expect that".
