Using the restyling of a 30-year-old juniper as a case study, this session explains the key techniques for shaping Shohin bonsai—compacting branches to highlight the trunk, creating jins and shelf branches, and forming a domed apex. It covers copper-wire wiring, balancing branch placement, and other practical methods to maximize the tree’s appeal. The lesson also explores comprehensive redesign considerations, including pot selection and repotting.
