Elite: The lethal lady recruits stand in formation as they await further instruction

• Trainees go through 10-month gruelling regime to become professional bodyguards
• Economic boom in China means wealthy business people looking for personal security
• Women much in demand as they can 'play' roles including secretary

Dressed in skimpy bikinis, these Chinese women could be going for a day out at the beach.
But these trainees are in fact being put through a gruelling regime in Sanya, Hainan province, on the road to become female bodyguards.
Twenty women, most of them college graduates, were kicked, dunked, near-drowned and forced to carry a heavy log between them during a tough boot camp run by professional bodyguards on Sunday.

The four-week programme is run by trainers from Tianjiao Special Guard Consultant Ltd - the first open group training for female bodyguards in China.

Each trainee goes through 10 months of instruction to develop their skills in reconnaissance, anti-terrorism training, martial arts and business etiquette.
The best individual from the class is also invited to study further at the International Security Academy in Israel.

With the booming economy in China and increasing wealth sparked by high demand for Chinese goods and materials, demand for bodyguard services had risen dramatically on the Chinese mainland.
Graduates of bodyguard courses can look forward to a well-paid career if they are recruited by wealthy businessmen.
That is especially the case for women, because they are less visible than their male counterparts and because they can assume roles such as secretary or nanny, they are in high demand.

Female bodyguards are often paid far better than male counterparts - up to $100 a day - too because they can adopt different roles. The average annual wage in China is just $1,500.

With her face grimacing in unbearable discomfort, this is the moment a trainee bodyguard has a bottle smashed over her head.
Amazingly, the recruit has to stand there and take it if she wants to qualify as one of China's first female bodyguards.
The training session, which took place in Beijing, involved 20 women, most of whom are university graduates.
