Osu, Kareyn. Check your technique in the mirror and watch where your head is going. I try to visualize an imaginary line coming down from the dojo ceiling and passing through my head to the floor. Your basic techniques should rotate around this imaginary line (strikes and blocks, too).

If your head is tilting over to one side during kicks, your body is probably following it. If you can keep your head (and spine) straight, I suspect your balance will improve.
