Umm... pretty sure Korra had been training for years under the tutelage of the white lotus (including Katara for waterbending).

During that time she basically mastered the three elements she could learn (since she had a block with airbending due to lack of spirituality). As seen from the first episode she ends her training (at the very least, she probably had more) with sparring against other benders. While not exactly experience per se, it is at the very least formal training, which both recieved.

As for Asami, she had training, as mentioned, but probably lacked any experience. I don't recall her mentioning the need to fight prior to meeting the new team avatar?
