Academy
The academy is a new type of lot introduced to The Sims 3 in the expansion pack The Sims 3: World Adventures. It is also a lot assignment.
Academies provide a boost to the Martial Arts skill building of any visiting Sims. By default the only academy in the game is located in Shang Simla, however players can add them to home worlds by tagging lots as 'Academy' in the Create a World tool, or in the edit world mode while playing.
If you wish to make a custom academy... You cannot place the martial arts equipment in the academy, even if you have the equipment. Your household's storage does not apply toward your community lots, and you cannot obtain the equipment in buy mode, not even for community lots. Unless they change this, a custom academy is good for sparring and meditating, but not practice or board breaking.
