To improve your balance whilst horse riding you can ride without your stirrups which increases your balance as you don't have your stirrups to rely on and have to use your bum to support your self. Also if it is possible to have a lunge lesson (where you are on the lunge line) you could ride without your reins and put your hands on your hips so that you are not relying on your hands and reins to keep you balanced. If you have your own horse you could also ride bareback. Trying out exercises on horseback help your balance too e.g. Around The World, Scissors etc.
