USPTA Certified Tennis Pro, Steven Motyka
About Steven.
Founder & Director, Kingdom Keys Elevation LLC
Steve Motyka’s racquet sports career began at Downingtown East High School, where he played #1 singles from 2006–2010 while competing in USTA junior tournaments and coming close to qualifying for the Pennsylvania State Championships.
Steve attended West Chester University from 2010–2014, studying Social Studies and Special Education. He continued his education through the Chester County Intermediate Unit, where he worked in Special Education before transitioning professionally into the racquet sports industry.
After earning his USPTA/RSPA professional certifications, Steve built his career in tennis and pickleball through instruction, program development, club leadership, team management, leagues, and competitive events. He has directed and operated programming involving hundreds of adult players, including men’s, women’s, and mixed teams spanning approximately 2.5 through 5.0 NTRP levels.
Steve is also a USTA-sanctioned Adult Tournament Director and continues to compete himself at the tournament level. His experience as a player, instructor, director, educator, and program organizer forms the foundation of Kingdom Keys Elevation.
Through KKE, Steve is building an expanding racquet sports platform encompassing junior development, adult programming, private and group instruction, leagues, teams, tournaments, pickleball, and special events, with continued expansion planned across multiple counties in the Philadelphia suburbs.
Kingdom Keys Elevation LLC is based in Newtown Square, Pennsylvania, at 3803 West Chester Pike, Suite 110.
Outside of racquet sports, Steve is a West Chester resident who loves rock and metal music, seafood, and the beach—especially Cape May.
For Steve, Kingdom Keys Elevation represents the opportunity to bring together years of experience in sports, education, leadership, and community programming under the company’s guiding principles:
Passion. Purpose. Potential.

"For as long as I can remember, I've been playing the sport of tennis. The game has been with me throughout my adolescence, college playing years, and now into my young adulthood. One piece that has remained consistent throughout all this time is exceptional coaching. Steve Motyka is among the best I've worked with."
