Yang I believe adapted her style to be on the more reckless abandonment side of combat, though I think she will start ironing that out of her style from her on out. I think she will opt to do it to be more effective against Adam (when she gets over her fear of Adam it will turn to hatred). In my view jaune is potentially more of a paladin type(mostly used to soak up damage and supports his comrades while at the frontlines) and yang is more of a physical melee bruiser(can most certainly take a hit but is more about beating the enemy to a pulp).

My view point mostly stems from their actions and feats. Jaune's from the beating he received. he took several blows from cardin despite being new to aura and as almost everyone demonstrated a single hit can knockout a grunt white fang member(if we assume the reason why they aren't torn apart by the hits is because of aura) so we can assume his aura very sturdy. As Arkantos stated he could take hits from a death stalker and more recently he took a hit from tyrian(to his shield) and was knocked several feet back but stayed up right in defensive stance.

For yang she can definitely takes hits(like getting punched through a concrete pillar) but she uses the hit to make her stronger then beat up her enemy as fast as she can, you can see this in every hand to hand fight she has been in. her greatest weakness is that she often does not take a fight seriously and lets her emotions control her which makes her sloppy, though I think she won't be anywhere near as reckless and impulsive in her fights from now one and be a little more calculating in her approach. As I said above I think she will adapt her style to better combat the opponents who beat and nearly killed her(i.e Neo and Adam). Jaune and ruby has qrow and yang has tiayang.
