| 1 | Would you like to sit in a "tatami" room or at a table? | |
| 2 | While they were warming up I would then sweep the frost off the tatami. | |
| 3 | In order to keep the tatamis clean for sitting upon, the Japanese take their shoes off. | |
| 4 | The floor was carpeted, if that was the word for it, in tatami mats. | |
| 5 | The class then practices cutting through rolls of tatami mats, the traditional Japanese straw-flooring material. |
