In 1980, Dr. Sichel graduated from the New York Chiropractic College specializing in applied kinesiology and non-force work and opened an office on the East Side of New York City. Two years later, Dr. Sichel heard about the Pilates method and more specifically, Romana Kryzanowska and the amazing postural improvements her clients were experiencing. It was around that time period when Dr. Sichel saw a photo of himself holding his daughter at her one year birthday party. He took one look at his faulty posture and the very next day he, too, became a Romana student.

Madeline Black ~ Author of CENTERED, Organizing the Body Through Kinesiology, Movement Theory and Pilates Techniques
Pilates instructors have many movement techniques to use and explore with their students, as well as a number of anatomy books to refer to when in need of a deeper understanding of the Pilates repertoire. But up until now, there hasn’t been a reference book so complete and comprehensive as the one written by Madeline Black’s, entitled: “Centered.”
The well-respected Brent Anderson, founder of Polestar Pilates, echo’s many of the reviewers, “Madeline’s book, Centered is an amazing experience and exploration of qualitative movement, a must have for all of those who consider themselves movement practitioners. I believe it will become a classical tool for our profession.”
