The central pc around the super-massive black hole in the Galactic Center hosts a population of young and massive stars. The majority of these stars (outside the central 1') have been found to reside in disks. Here we develop a detailed statistical analysis method of the properties of these disks including a robust test of the significance of these disks versus an isotropic stellar population. We apply this method to the data set obtained with the AO assisted integral field spectrograph SINFONI on the ESO/VLT as of the end of 2007 and present preliminary results.
