Hi Ashalee,

Start by practicing this stationary for your players by transferring ball from side to side and get used to transferring their weight from side to side following the movement of the ball. Get the players used to how the ball feels and then get them to keep their head up and not focus on the ball.

Attached is a Sportplan video on the indian dribble on the move.

Hope that helps!
