Why, you ask, Spirited?

Miles and Kerry answered that at the NY Comiccon; according to them, there are cases where Huntsmen and Huntresses never learn their Semblance. Never. So if it took Yang four years of combat school to learn her Semblance, she at least has an edge over those who never did. There's no proof she discovered it "long ago," so this easily could be her first time. Notice that until that shimmer, her blows didn't really hurt that advanced Ursa, they didn't get stronger as she took damage. So there was nothing indicating her Semblance was working then. Anyway, hope this helps.
