well #1 try standing up, staggared, and move your body the same way the bike is leaning, seems weird butworks, and stop being choppy on the throttle, that's the problem, be smooth

Thats actually pretty normal when you're first learning to slow wheelie. Just keep at it and you'll learn how to control it. Chopping the throttle does it sometimes, but not so much during sitdowns. Its possible that you're overcorrecting the bike in the wheelie.
