Yoga is probably as good as anything. Warrior III -> airplane -> half moon -> Warrior III -> Tree (raising arms to "palm tree" and then back to anjali mudra) -> Mountain to switch sides, is one of my favorite progressions for balance work. Shifting your gaze to the ceiling in Half Moon and Tree adds an extra challenge.
V., are you doing a hip hinge with that exercise? If so, that's another one I like, and it's plenty challenging on the floor without the Bosu ... with or without a weight, hip hinge to touch the floor with the arm ipsilateral to the standing leg, then hinge back up while raising the knee and pressing the arm overhead. I tried it today with a med ball in both hands, which is even more challenging.
