Dumbbell clean and press - question on form

Hey all!
I'm working out 6 - 7 days a week (including 1 - 2 recovery days of course with just a little yoga or something similar) with the guys at fitnessblender.com. I'm following one of their programmes so I'm pretty certain I'm getting a good balance of everything
As far as strength training is concerned I'm generally struggling with an immense imbalance between my left and right side. When I do a dumbbell clean and press, I've noticed that when I do it on my weaker side, I somewhat tilt my upper body towards the other side on the press part. Not much but still. Is that ok or do I have to drop the weights? I'd really like to stay at the weight I use at the moment since it's already barely challenging on the stronger side...
Cheers,
Ines
