The instructor in the form class said she was working on this by ... while bringing in the breath her rib cage relaxes and drops and the circle (including the back) around the pelvic area expands. On the exhale, contracting the perenium muscle. This helps with balance, as it consolidates everything into that pelvic area for a better center of gravity. E.g. I usually find I lose balance, especially with kicks, when much is going on in the upper body, instead on letting everything sink down. The power comes from the exhale actions.
