Bowing in Japanese greetings is an important move on a daily basis. However, scenes actually receiving guidance are few, and in many cases it is self-taught. In this research, we investigated and analyzed what kind of features are in bowing of non-experts who are done in self-taught, and what kind of motion the experts evaluate. Three experts evaluated the bowing motion of 41 non-experts with 7 full marks, examined the correlation of the three evaluations, clarified the evaluation viewpoint of each evaluator, and as a result, two examiners I was able to find a characteristic evaluation viewpoint. In addition, as a result of performing cluster analysis by the Ward method using the principal component analysis, multiple regression analysis, cluster analysis, the principal component score was used to clarify the evaluation components, it was possible to analyze into 5 clusters, and as a result, we ware possible to classify the bowing of each by feature.
