Aron Bowen

Co-Owner of Essential Wave Studios, Aron is our Wellness Studio’s in-house Certified Personal Trainer (CPT). His pursuit and interest in Wellness has always been a natural part of his life, modeled by his Mother, Cathy Saratore, who even into her 7th decade is still lacing up her running shoes to go for a run or walk along the beach with her dog. 

Aron has an upbringing in both the Colorado mountains and the shorelines of Union Pier and New Buffalo, MI. A Colorado native, Aron has stayed rooted in the area with his Father, Bob Bowen, and extended family. In 2021, Aron and his wife, Renée Bowen and son, Koa Bowen, moved back to New Buffalo, while their oldest son, Sumari Bowen, stayed in Colorado to finish college. 

Aron is no stranger to being a small business owner. In 2004, Aron opened a tattoo shop in downtown Colorado Springs, House of Color, and more recently, The Colorado Refuge, a small boutique-vintage retail shop in Colorado Springs, CO in 2017. Aron was inspired to obtain his CPT from the National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM) as he began to ride his own “wave” of wellness through the move to New Buffalo after the pandemic. 

Prior to working in the field of Personal Training, Aron’s background includes working as a motorcycle mechanic at Harley Davidson after becoming a Certified Technician from Motorcycle Mechanics Institute (MMI) in Phoenix, AZ in 2000; Followed by a 20-year career as a Journeyman Electrician and Fabrication Manager for both residential and commercial outfits. Aron has always been a hard-working man from an early age roofing with his Father right here in New Buffalo and that work ethic has never been put to rest. The toll that hard-manual labor has on the body has been a wake-up call, however, to put his own wellness as a top priority and inspired him to pursue a dream of owning a Wellness Studio and embodying the lifestyle he loves to lead. 

Aron’s hobbies include riding and wrenching on his Harley’s and classic cars, as well as: buying-selling-trading vehicles, Paddle-boarding, walking the beach looking for beach glass, pursuing one of his many creative outlets, enjoying a craft beer from any of his favorite breweries especially while cheering on the Denver Broncos and the Chicago Bears and probably more than anything, spending time with his family, especially when they’re all together with oldest son, Sumari visiting as often as he can!
