About Us
Michelle Sedlatschek
Owner of Winding Creek Stable LLC
I've had a passion for horses since a very young age. I began riding lessons when I was nine years old, and eventually progressed to owning my own horse at age 13. I was on the Rutgers University Equestrian Team in college while earning an Animal Science degree, and continued riding/jumping into early adulthood. Once I had a family, I was able to introduce them into the horse world. The most perfect pony was the key to continuing a lifetime involvement with horses - now with my daughter!
We've been involved in everything under the sun, from 4-H to hunter/jumper shows at The World Equestrian Center, to polo clinics and eventing, trail rides and bareback swimming, to trailering across many state borders and training on the ground to in the saddle. We have learned an incredible amount over the years, and in addition to holding an RN and MSN in nursing education, I am confident in our ability to provide expert care here at Winding Creek!

I've been around horses since the age of four, starting with an old barrel racing pony that quickly became my soulmate. I would read her books after school, tie rainbow ribbons in her mane - it was the ultimate little girl and pony relationship. My older sister and I learned that if one of us walked Bambi to the very back edge of the pasture, and the other waited in the barn with a feed scoop, Bambi would tear across the field with one lucky kid on her back just for a handful of sweet feed. We did this for hours.
Since then, I've had the opportunity to ride several amazing horses, all of which taught me valuable life and horsemanship advice. I've dipped my toes into hunter/jumpers, eventing, dressage, polo, mounted drill team, barrel racing (county fair fun classes count, right?), driving, showjumping, Thoroughbred racing, and foal-to-sale prep / management through Ohio State University. It's been a crazy 20+ years in the horse world, & I have zero intention of ever quitting!
