Rocking back and forth is just fine....it is a way to keep the board pointed down the fall line and control speed without making large radius turns. This technique is quite effective for going down cat tracks. Tilt is one of three fundamental movements to turn your board and is very appropriate.....
As for riding flat, try to stay on edge, but at a low edge angle. I find that being slightly on toe edge is the easiest and then counter rotaing my shoulders to cancel out the toeside turning tendency.
