Dr. Eric Cobb
The creator and co-founder of Z-Health Performance Solutions, LLC, Dr. Eric Cobb is one of the world's foremost experts in utilizing the neurology of movement to create extraordinary change in the human body. His passion for maximally developing human potential began as a young child, and has continued to grow in depth and intensity through a combination of both his academic studies, and his own athletic development as a tennis player, world-class martial artist, and professional combatives instructor.
A chiropractic physician, Dr Cobb has a degree in human biology and has done extensive post-grad study in a variety of areas, including neurology, neurophysiology, pain management, nutrition and functional medicine, kinesiology, musculoskeletal trauma, and advanced soft tissue techniques. He is a voracious reader and loves to compile his findings from reams of data into practical, applicable information, which he passes on to others. His teaching has been described by students as advanced, articulate, intelligent, funny, and most importantly, ultra-practical.
In regards to performance training, Dr. Cobb views himself as a “neurophysiologic detective,” not willing to work within a confined flowchart of cause and effect, but exploring and discovering the unique key to each athlete’s issues. His greatest passion is helping people realize the power they have to change and then helping them find tools and skills to help them further unlock their potential.
Dr. Cobb’s primary responsibility is to spread the word about Z-Health, traveling the country teaching workshops and certification courses, and working with select individuals and athletes. Dr. Cobb also stays busy developing new products and innovative methods for educating others about Z-Health concepts.
On a free day, you can find Dr. Cobb reading, studying martial arts and combatives, or training. He also loves music and art as well as studying foreign languages. He often states that he has been doing what he’s doing now for his entire life; studying and trying to master the intricacies and the amazing potential of the human body through fitness, fighting, movement and applied neurology.
When asked about his work and life, Dr. Cobb often replies with the phrase, Ancora Imparo. As legend has it, this phrase was found in the margin of one of Michelangelo’s sketches near the end of his life. It translates as, “Still, I am learning…”

Kathy Mauck is one of the primary driving forces behind the development and world-wide exposure of Z-Health.
A biologist by training, Kathy worked several years in medical research, but dreamed of an opportunity to share her passion for the human potential with a larger audience and help meet their individual needs. Just such an opportunity arose over a decade ago when she personally experienced the power of the Z-Health approach, and the amazing capacity of the human body, after working through injuries of her own with long-time friend, Dr. Eric Cobb.
Kathy’s intuitive sense of the “rightness” of Z-Health as an approach to human health and performance proved pivotal as she partnered with Dr. Cobb to create Z-Health Performance – a company and system with a focus on life-long growth and excellence.
With her unique blend of personality, intensity, humor, and drive, Kathy has been responsible for helping establish Z-Health worldwide. Kathy has an intense passion for learning and loves to share things of great value with others to make their lives better.
As a natural-born coach and cheerleader, she is exceptional at meeting the needs of the athletes and professionals she comes into contact with. Much of what you need to know about Kathy can be discovered by asking her, “What’s your favorite problem to solve?”
Her answer is that she loves to work with professionals who are new to Z-Health to help them realize their own individual potential, and the chance that they have to share this valuable information with their clients.
She loves to tell trainers, “People so rarely see just how much they accomplish all the time, how successful they are, both everyday and long term, and from that – how much they are truly capable of. Human beings and the human body are truly staggering with potential and capacity!”
As an active partner in Z-Health, Kathy invests daily in relationships with Z-Health trainers, Master Trainers and in opportunities to build and grow new business relationships while also traveling, teaching, and writing. Kathy is not only an integral part of Z-Health, but also the personality that drives our exceptional client relations.
On a free day, you can find Kathy walking, reading, resting, or talking on the phone. She spends her free time prepping the next project or goal she wants to accomplish, and setting her sights on being better than she was before. She has been doing it all her life; seeing the glass as half full, looking for the good that can be done, and trying to build on that.
