Rei-gi:

The word 'rei' in Japanese, means to show courtesy and respect. It is displayed through the bowing action. The different actions associated with showing courtesy are altogether known as rei-gi. The term rei-ho, on the other hand, is used to denote different rules that guide the actions associated with rei-gi.

Kamae:

The swordsman gets ready to strike in this position. There are 5 sub-types of the kamae stance and chudan-no-kamae is the most important one. In the chudan-no-kamae stance, body posture is kept upright. The right foot is placed in front of the left and both are aligned in a single line; the heel of left leg is raised slightly. The body weight should be distributed properly between the left and right feet. Right hand should be positioned below the tsuba while holding the shinai or bamboo blade. The left hand should be held in line with the tsuba-gashira.
