It's not that we have anything against kicking people in the head, mind you. We just prefer to put our opponents on the ground first, or at the very least give 'em a good shot in the 'nads to double 'em over. Kicks to the head can then be performed almost at one's leisure.
Yes, we followed the same principle/phylosophy in Aikido
