Having practiced bonsai for more than 20 years, I'm sure I can guide you through a reduction of both the top and the roots. This picture may not mean much w/o an explanation, but it is a larch I'm preparing to chop the top off just above the crossing wires to reduce it to bonsai size. I'll then build a tree from what's left. The top reduction and root work you're asking about are necessary requirements for maintaining bonsai.
