Thirty kilometres from Dakhla, in the middle of the Western Sahara, there is a lagoon where the wind blows around 80% of the year. The water stays flat and shallow as far as you can see, which is exactly what a beginner needs to progress, and what an experienced rider needs to push.
It is also one of the quietest places you can take a group of founders: desert all around, camps built on the water, and not much to do in the evening except talk. For a week about clarity, that is the point. Nights get cold in winter, so pack something warm.
