Symmetry (or lack thereof) of the seat etc.

Hi Paintpony and welcome!

This is where I so wish I had access to one of the Pliance computerised pressure testing systems. When we hired it to test the saddles it was absolutely fascinating, but at close on £20,000 short of winning the lottery, I will have to dream!

It's obviously no good for riding, but my Wii Fit wobble board is great for showing me when I am standing wonkily - I weight my right seatbone and leg when riding and low and behold, I stand with more weight on the right leg too! The Wii Fit has lots of exercises to help this and I also get straightened out by a McTimoney chiro every 6mths. Pilates is also good and that uses a ball too.

i tend to ride with a slight twist in my upper body to the right, resulting in a heavier quality to my right seatbone.  i'm trying exaggerating the opposite to counteract this - which does seem to help.  also have the annoying habit of weighting the outside when my horse is cutting in .  funny how when i actually lean in (again, exaggerated), he scoots right back out!

Heather you should develop a Wii Rider game!!!!  something to sit on?

Now that is actually a very good idea

Given that there's those funny Japanese 'horse' exercise machines, it could work - with a bit of tweaking....
