She probably is not fit enough yet to carry herself in a balanced, quiet canter. Often we do not give enough consideration to the horses fitness and we should, after all they are an athlete. Lots of trot work on a light contact for about a month without attempting to canter. When you do go back to cantering again use a light contact...don't hang on her mouth. Look to enlongate her neck so that she balances herself.
