Heh. Though in my case it was mostly an exercise in learning about being struck by naginata. My partner was quite advanced, though it probably wouldn't have made much of a difference, really.

Yup, I'm in the same boat. I went up against a naginata sensei while I was still ikkyu (maybe nikkyu). Never have I been tsuki'd so many times in one match. Fortunately for me, he has excellent control (and aim), so it never really hurt, just kept me from closing maai.
