My bonsai desperately needs to be shaped

I get so nervous trimming it. I’ve always heard there’s an art to it and it’s got me not wanting to make mistakes so I let it go wild. Look at this thing. It’s crazy. At least I know it’s happy where it’s living.

That’s pretty cool looking. They must wrap them around a stick while it’s growing to get the trunk to curve that way. Or is that just natural?

They do something with strong wire to train them, this one took 12 years. They are so amazing how they do that.
