Meet the Owner

Alexa Murkette

Founder & Owner, Strike Fitness

At just 19 years old, Alexa is already doing what most people only dream about, building her own fitness studio from the ground up in Longmeadow, Massachusetts.

Alexa Murkette, founder and owner of Strike Fitness

Alexa founded Strike Fitness with one simple belief: fitness works better when it's personal. Not a giant gym where you're a number, a boutique studio where coaches know your name, your goals, and the squat you've been working toward.

A 19-year-old entrepreneur, Alexa took her passion for movement and turned it into a business, proving that age is no barrier to building something real for your community. She leads from the front: teaching classes, coaching members one-on-one, and creating a space where everyone from seniors to first-time lifters feels at home.

Outside the studio, Alexa's world is full of growing things, literally. She's an avid plant lover whose collection keeps multiplying, and at home she's usually surrounded by her snake, Striker, and her dog, Indy. Ask her about either one and you'll get a full conversation (and probably a photo).

Whether you're stepping into a group fitness class for the first time, working on balance and mobility, or looking for coaching that finally makes nutrition click, Alexa's approach is the same: meet you where you are, and move you forward.
