This may sound like the stupidest or goofiest answer, but it's the way I explained it to my wife (ex wife) years ago. She thought we would fall over into the lean of the turn. Open your washing machine while it's on the spin cycle. Stick a pencil in the safety switch, so the machine keeps spinning with the wet clothes. Explain the concept of centrifugal force. Let her know that if her weight leaves the confines of the "tub", everything goes flying out, nothing works right. Let her know that if she leans away from the turn, she's fighting you making the turn. It helped her very much to stay in line with me in the turn. After that, there was never a problem. Teach her it's important to keep her butt, shoulders and head aligned with yours. It worked. It got to the point we could ride, and it was like she wasn't even there. This may be the simplest way to explain it. Trust me, it worked.
