About this gym
Silk City Gymnastics and Dance continues the tradition of Wininger's Gymnastics and Dance (since 1974), providing gymnastics and dance instruction from a 12,000+ sq. ft. fully equipped, air-conditioned facility. Ownership passed to Lazar and Iliana Gakev in 2018, who maintained the existing coaching staff and philosophy; both owners are former international gymnastics competitors (Lazar was a 1988 Olympic alternate, Iliana competed at the 1994 World Championships) with more than 30 years of combined coaching experience, including State, Regional, and National-level competitors. Programs span Parent & Me, preschool, recreational gymnastics for boys and girls, trampoline & tumbling, a competitive gymnastics/trampoline team, and a full dance curriculum (ballet, hip hop, jazz, lyrican, tap) for ages 3 through teens.
