Some of the actresses who played Amazons in Wonder Woman came together again for the Amazon training experience of a lifetime.

Could you keep up with the Amazons of Themyscira? Actress and personal trainer Hari James came back to the beaches of Themyscira (also known as Italy, where the Wonder Wonder scenes were filmed) with several other actresses from the film to conduct an Amazon training experience.

According to a report from Comicbook, some of the actresses from Wonder Woman conducted a little workout fit for the Amazons themselves. James and a few of her costars held a workout on the beach that was designed to give other people a chance to experience the Amazon boot camp of a lifetime.

You can see some of the women who took part in the film and in the beach workout in James’ Instagram post:

James also posted a video on YouTube that highlights her journey and introduces us to some of the other powerful women she worked with:

Over the course of filming the Themyscira scenes for Wonder Woman, the actresses who brought the characters to life conducted their own very intense workouts to achieve the desired effect that Wonder Woman director Patty Jenkins was looking for. The vast majority of the scenes from Themyscira involved the Amazons training or fighting, so it was important to get the right look.

To achieve this goal, Jenkins brought in athletes, rather than actors, whose physiques lent themselves to the embodiment of strong Amazonian women. The result was stunning, as the Amazon scenes were incredibly realistic.
