Meet Your Coach
Coach Kristine Humphrey
"Every skater has untapped speed and power waiting to be unlocked. I'm here to help them find it."
A St. Louis native and Nerinx Hall graduate, Kristine began her skating career at Creve Coeur Ice Arena — where she spent eight years and discovered her passion for the game. That passion turned into a calling: teaching others to skate, compete, and love hockey the way she does.
Kristine has taught Learn to Skate and Learn to Play at Hardee's Ice Plex, Pacific Ice Rink, Kirkwood Ice Arena, and Creve Coeur Ice Arena. She is the lead instructor for CHA Learn to Play and has coached with the Lady Cyclones and served as assistant coach for Lady Liberty's 14U and 19U programs. Whether it's a toddler's first steps on ice or a teenager chasing a roster spot, Kristine meets every skater exactly where they are.
What Parents & Players Say
From the Ice
"Coach Kristine is a great instructor who has helped my child increase his skating ability by leaps and bounds. She helps her students to grow by pushing them to their limits, being both firm and very encouraging. My child loves the sessions."
— Nikki C., Hockey Parent
"If you can't skate, you can't play. If you can't skate after lessons with Kristine, you don't want to play."
— Kyle A., Hockey Parent
"Years of working with Kristine and I can confidently say she is the real deal. No-nonsense, elite edge work, and unmatched results. I hunted her down in the parking lot several years ago and I'd do it again! She turns skaters into artists on edges. ⛸️🔥"
— Chad C., Hockey Parent
"She’s essential — truly teaches what players can’t get at a team practice!"
— Drew M., Hockey Parent
"I always look forward to and enjoy my lessons with Coach Kristine. She brings new challenges every lesson to keep me motivated and improving. I feel so proud when I accomplish a new skill and am so thankful to Coach for pushing me to be my best!"
— Harry A., Player
Grant Schaible · Eastern Hockey League
"I've known Coach Kristine since I was two years old, and I truly wouldn't be the player I am today without her."
