I have terrible confidence and balance when it comes to riding XD
Are there any exercises you know of that can help improve balance or confidence?
Mind you I have only ridden English... for roughly 7 years XD
-EDIT- oh knows X_x;;; I shoulda put this in advice/questions -runs around like mad trying to find a moderater-

Well, if you still lack confidence after 7 years of riding, I'd say you need a more broke horse.

Get a few lunge lessons. That way your instructor will be in control and you can work on your position and you can ask her/him to give you some exercise s to give you more confidence :3

It isn't terrible, I just was always on older horses that were either lazy or couldn't pick up the same lead in their back legs, ooor trippy horses O_O
I feel more confident, mainly cause I haven't ridden in 3 years and I just want to jump on a horse XD
Thanks D

Riding bareback is wonderful for balance. And it's perfectly fine to just walk at first until you feel confident enough to go faster. Or you could ride without stirrups.
