My next horse back riding lesson, I'm going to be riding a horse ....any tips...?

Ooh, is really fun! You just have to get used to it. ;) When first learning to ride , you will want to sit back and deep. Grip with your thighs, not your calves (remember, that's what makes your horse go!). I often hold onto some mane to keep balance, so it would be a good idea since it sounds like your first time. Make sure to keep your toes up (heels down), that's what will keep you on your horse! is lots of fun, and you can "feel" your horse better. Just stay relaxed, and have fun!
