KATSUDO Original training tatami mat is a professional
tatami floor used not only by athletes in dojos, karate, or boxing,
but also in schools, children’s centers, and rehabilitation facilities. Thanks to the practical
tatami puzzle system, the mats are easy to assemble, adjust to any space, and provide
a safe, hygienic, and visually organized surface.
Who are the mats suitable for:
🥋 Training spaces for karate, judo, aikido, taekwondo, boxing
Tatami floors are an integral part of martial arts. They are used as a shock-absorbing base in dojos,
gyms, or sports halls. In judo and aikido, they soften falls and rolls; in taekwondo or karate,
they provide a safe surface for kicks, stances, and quick movements.
Their color separation allows competition zones and boundaries to be created directly according to federation rules.
🏋️ Sports clubs, gyms, and home gyms
In clubs, tatami mats serve as a durable, easy-to-maintain, and flexible flooring for many activities –
from fitness training and cross-training to stretching and yoga zones. At home, you can create a temporary
training corner that can be dismantled and stored after exercise. They ensure stability underfoot and protect the floor from damage.
🏫 Schools, kindergartens, and children’s playrooms
In educational facilities, tatami mats are used as safe surfaces for play, movement activities, and relaxation.
In kindergartens, teachers use them as a play area where children can tumble, build, or read without injury risk.
In schools, they serve as temporary gym floors, underlay for equipment, or quiet zones for relaxation.
The tatami puzzle system allows quick setup and storage.
🧘 Play, therapeutic, and relaxation zones
In therapy centers, sensory stimulation rooms, or rehabilitation, tatami mats are used as soft and hygienic flooring
for various activities – from client positioning and fine motor games to physiotherapy exercises.
They are also popular in meditation or relaxation rooms as an insulating surface.
At play areas or festivals, they work perfectly as mobile “soft flooring” for kids and adults.

💡 Assembly and disassembly tip: If you frequently change the layout after training,
dismantle them carefully – lift and separate along the interlocking direction to avoid damaging the connecting teeth.
