According to a Market Analysis done by Grandview Research “The U.S. sexual wellness market size was valued at USD 10.3 billion in 2021 and is expected to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.67% from 2022 to 2030.”
In practical terms this means the market size for sexual wellness in 2022 was $11 billion USD and is expected to grow to $19.9 billion USD by 2030
There are a number of factors contributing to this anticipated growth such as:
- The stigma around masturbation reducing since the pandemic and an increasing number of people looking to improve their sexual experiences.
- Sex-positive movements have helped clear the stereotypes related to gender, age, and social constructs.
- The stigma attached to sexual activities and experimenting is reducing due to liberalization and growing acceptance of the LGBTQ+ communities.
- The US Government is also taking initiatives towards sexual wellness by promoting safe sex, further propelling the growth of the market.
Because of these growing trends, banks and investors who were reluctant to fund ventures in the sexual wellness space are now investing. Major brands in the sexual wellness space are expected to witness lucrative demand due to the growing use of pleasure products for both men and women.
All of this anticipated growth is wonderful news for those of us in the field of sexual wellness, but at the same time this highlights the growing need for regulation and oversight in this field.
Although the field of sexual wellness and sex coaching is currently NOT regulated, the anticipated growth will compel the need for professional standards, government regulation, and oversight. Being a “Tantra Teacher” in 2025, 2028, and 2030 is NOT going to look the same as it has for the past 30+ years- namely shady, unregulated, and full of self-proclaimed “tantra experts”.
With the sexual wellness market poised for massive expansion, consumers WILL demand more and better-quality offerings AND providers.
This is where being credentialed in the field of sexual wellness by a government accredited learning institution will give you an unparalleled advantage in the market.
Here’s why:
1. Government accreditation provides built in consumer protections. The government’s main role in private education is to provide oversight and ensure the legitimacy of the curriculum and ethical functioning of the learning institution. IATE is currently the ONLY government accredited school for tantric sexual healing in the world and offers the ONLY government-accredited tantra certification curriculum IN THE WORLD. You can review the curriculum for our 2 year certification program HERE.

This additional credential provides graduates with an unparalleled degree of professionalism in the field of sexual wellness. IATE is currently the only Tantra school qualified by ABS to offer graduates this additional credential.
4.Lineage-based and Lama approved. The Tibetan Five Element Teachings offered through IATE are authentic, lineage-based Tantric teachings from the Vajrayana tradition of Tibetan Tantric Buddhism. These teachings are said to be over 17,000 years old, originating with the Buddha Tonpa Shenrab, merging with “modern” Tantric Buddhism in the 10th century CE.
As Tantra becomes more popular in the wellness industry, the demand will increase for authentic, lineage-based teachings that are ethically and culturally responsible.
There are a number of Tantra Certification Programs available in the market place. There are simply none that can offer the same level of integrity and opportunities for professional advancement that IATE offers to our students and graduates.
