The rules have changed. You don’t need Jedi training, just a few practice swings with a light saber. There is no dark side of the force, just a misunderstood one.

Luke’s training on Dagobah (sp?) was a quick hit bootcamp, and yes there was a training aspect, but much of Yoda’s focus was on Luke’s focus and equilibrium, which was obviously way too short. I think implied in all that, and even moreso in Episode 1 with Anakin, is that having the ‘bloodline’ (or the midichrolians heh) is far more important, because you get the awareness, foresight, and reaction speed. Even if she wasn’t trained on a laser sword, Rey was already very deft and dexterous from her time surviving and scavenging on Tatooine.
