Each 1 Teach 1, Inc., is a BIPOC, woman-led nonprofit based in Frederick, Maryland.
Through trauma-informed youth programming that addresses the mental, social, and physical impacts on youth development, we provide children and their families with social-emotional learning skills using yoga, meditation, and various mindful activities.
We utilize the evidence-based CASEL (Collaborative for Academic, Social, and Emotional Learning) framework, grounded in research and principles of child and adolescent development. These scientifically evaluated programs produce positive outcomes, supporting youth growth socially, emotionally, and physically.
Founded in 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic, E1T1 began as an after-school and summer program serving youth in the Lucas Village community. Since then, we have expanded to provide before-school, in-school, and after-school programming throughout Frederick County. Our after-school programs are also offered at Yogamour Healing Arts Center.
Thanks to the generous support of local sponsors—including the Ausherman Family Foundation, Delaplaine Foundation Inc., The City of Frederick, The Community Foundation, and Second Street & Hope—we continue to grow our reach. In 2024, we proudly partnered with 10 Frederick County elementary schools and served over 520 Pre-K students and their families.
Our Mission

Vision

Our Programs
-
Our youth programs bring evidence-based social-emotional learning (SEL) directly into schools and community spaces. Whether through our structured after-school series or our in-class sessions, children build skills in mindfulness, movement, emotional regulation, and healthy relationships. Designed to nurture emotional wellness and improve academic success, these programs help students grow into confident, resilient, and well-rounded individuals
-
Our flexible, pop-up style classes bring social-emotional learning and mindfulness to life in creative ways. From weekend and evening workshops to special farm-based experiences like SEL-focused yoga with horses at Hearts of the Herd, these offerings give children opportunities to explore mindfulness, movement, and emotional regulation outside the classroom. Classes may be offered as one-time experiences or in a short series, making it easy for families to participate in unique, meaningful enrichment activities.
-
Our half-day camps provide playful, hands-on opportunities for children to explore mindfulness and social-emotional learning in a supportive environment. Through yoga, breathing exercises, creative expression, and fun group activities, campers build focus, resilience, and emotional awareness. Select camps may also include animal interactions and nature-based experiences to deepen connection, empathy, and social skills. Offered during summer and school breaks, these camps give children meaningful tools for well-being while having fun.
-
Designed for families to grow and learn together, these classes combine age-appropriate activities for children with practical strategies parents can use at home. Through playful movement, breathing exercises, and mindful practices, children build emotional awareness and self-regulation skills—while parents gain tools to support these skills in everyday life. Whether “Mommy & Me,” “Daddy & Me,” or any caregiver-child pair, these sessions strengthen bonds, foster healthy habits, and create shared moments of calm and connection.
-
Open to everyone—from parents and caregivers to educators and wellness professionals—these workshops integrate Each 1 Teach 1, Inc.’s trauma-informed practices, social-emotional learning, yoga, and self-care strategies. Designed to nurture personal growth and development, sessions help participants deepen their self-awareness, explore strategies for self-regulation and resilience, and strengthen how they care for themselves and others.
-
Our Community Engagement programs bring social-emotional learning and mindfulness to schools, families, and local communities through interactive, one-time or occasional events. From schoolwide SEL Days to Glow Parties and hands-on demonstrations, these experiences give participants of all ages the opportunity to explore mindfulness, build emotional awareness, and connect with others in a fun and engaging environment.
