If you went into the turns a few mph slower would you be able to accomplish this? Once you got the hang of this would you be able to bring the pace back up?

I'm already a bit on the slow side, I think one major problem is that the roads I'm practicing on are lots of blind corners and I don't ride them often enough to remember how each turn goes so I lean in, then back off the throttle when I don't see the exit point (which is not the way to do it, obviously). Improving my entry point might help, but I'll try a few things to see what helps me not roll off mid turn.
