Standing in Stirrups

what is the technique for standing in stirrups. I can't seem to master the
technique. I have a strap on the horse's neck to hold, but this tilts me
forward, and this hurts my back after a couple of hours. If I don't use the
strap, then I fall back down into the saddle. I know I have a big butt, but
I am a lightweight rider, so there has to be many things that I am doing
wrong. I ride in an OF Stitchdown and and Frank Baines Enduro.
