Within the NGAA, that's the rule. Most groups outside the NGAA (a scattering of schools), most don't wear them at all. I actually encourage them earlier, for the challenge wearing them presents in training.I dunno about the rules in that art but no it usually yudansha and above that wear the Hakama ...(mind you in iaido and kendo and the sword arts the Hakama is kinda manditory )
